Harjit Sajjan Interview | A Journey of Identity, Service & Leadership | Chai with T | Tarannum Thind

Get ready for an unforgettable episode of ‘Chai with T’! We’re thrilled to welcome the Honourable Harjit S. Sajjan as our first-ever politician guest. But don’t expect a typical political interview. Instead, join us as Sajjan opens about his remarkable journey from immigrant to influential leader. Dive into a candid discussion about overcoming racism, tackling gang violence, and celebrating personal and professional victories.
The Honourable Harjit S. Sajjan is the President of the King’s Privy Council for Canada and Minister of Emergency Preparedness and Minister responsible for the Pacific Economic Development Agency of Canada
Minister Sajjan was first elected as the Member of Parliament for Vancouver South in 2015. He has previously served as Minister of International Development and Minister responsible for the Pacific Economic Development Agency of Canada and as Minister of National Defence.
Minister Sajjan immigrated to Canada from India with his family when he was five years old. He grew up in South Vancouver and benefitted from everything the area’s diverse and culturally rich community has to offer.
Minister Sajjan has made serving others a cornerstone of his life. He is a former detective with the Vancouver Police Department, a former Lieutenant Colonel with the British Columbia Regiment (Duke of Connaught’s Own), and a long-time advocate for youth education and mentorship programs.
For 11 years, Minister Sajjan was a member of the Vancouver Police Department, based primarily in South Vancouver. He completed his career as a detective with the gang crime unit. As a member of the British Columbia Regiment, he participated in four operational deployments - one to Bosnia and three to Afghanistan.
Minister Sajjan has lived in Vancouver for many years with his wife and two children.
