June is Filipino Heritage Month and to celebrate, CBC Calgary is highlighting the rich heritage and contributions of Filipino Calgarians. To kick off the Kapitbahay: Meet your Filipino neighbours campaign, we introduce you to the artists behind the CBC Calgary project, Harvey Nichol and Lionel Migrino. I am very proud to be a part of the Filipino community in Calgary and I recognize I have certain advantages as a second-generation Filipino. CBC: What's the best little known fact about the Filipino Calgary community that most people don't realize? Migrino: I think the Filipino community in Calgary is very underrated, even though we are probably one of the fastest-growing communities in Calgary.
