+ Tamil Nadu Cultural Society of Canada (TNCSC) is a Not-for-Profit Ontario + Corporation serving Indian Tamils in Canada. It was established in May 1997 + on an informal basis as an association of like minded Indian Tamils. It was + registered in February 1998 as a not-for-profit corporation in the province + of Ontario to connect Tamil Diasporas of Indian Tamils in Canada. +

+

Preserving Tamil Heritage

+

+ The purpose is to serve Tamils of Indian origin in Canada and preserve and + promote the heritage of our culture in Canada by celebrating festivals like + Pongal combined with Christmas and English New Year, Tamil New Year and + Deepavali combined with Eid. This will facilitate the people of Tamil Nadu + from different religion to feel Canada as a home away from home. We also help + Tamil kids of Indo-Canadian Tamils to understand our rich heritage and the + culture. Association is also assisting the new immigrants from Tamilnadu to + settle down fast in Canada by providing necessary information relating to + Canadian society, settlement, job search and community support by means of + networking. +

தமிழ்நாடு / Tamil Nadu

+

+ தமிழ்நாடு — தமிழர்களின் ஆன்மாவும் அடையாளமும்! இது ஆயிரக்கணக்கான ஆண்டுகள் + பழமை வாய்ந்த வரலாற்றைக் கொண்ட நிலம். +

+ Tamil Nadu coastline +

+ Tamil Nadu is the land of the Tamils, and it has a history that dates back + several thousand years. It is an enchanting and ancient Dravidian land in the + extreme south of peninsular India, where traditions and culture blend and + continue to live in harmony — from its temples and sculptures to its living + classical language. +

+

+ The state's coastline runs nearly 1,000 km along the Coromandel Coast and the + Bay of Bengal, dotted with coconut palms, fishing villages, and rich maritime + wildlife. It is this land — its language, its coast, its temples, and its + people — that TNCSC exists to keep alive for Tamil families across Canada. +
