By Harjit Dhillon 
Harjit was born in Bahowal, a small village in the district of Hoshairpur in India. Once settled in Vancouver Harjit created a similar kind of home life as she had in India… one where everyone was welcome. She often had her extend family: nephews and nieces, family friends and political figures stay with her family. Her nephew is Ujal Dosanjh (former Premier of British Columbia) and even he stayed with the family when he first came from India. When Harjit wasn't immersed in politics she sewed a lot of her own and her children's clothing.
