The CPCA is committed to organize and conduct social events on various significant occasions and when felt necessary.

These social events provide an effective platform for the members as well as non-members to socially interact, exchange views and enjoy these gatherings.

Most of the times these events are flavoured with live music and entertainment. Here it would be worth mentioning a few names who contributed in various ways on such events.

Acknowledgement

The President of CPCA, on behalf of the organization in particular and that of the community in general, sincerely thank the following renowned Pushto artists for their voluntary work to provide best music entertainment at various occasions:

Sardar Ali Takkar: A Pushtu music legend, who would hardly require any further introduction for Pushtun community.
He traveled all the way, at his personal expense, from his home country to Canada at two different occasions to perform live in the community events at Mississauga. Ontario, Canada. These concerts were organized by the CPCA.

Please see one of the many tributes to Sardar Ali Takkar here.

Ustad Shah Wali Afghan: An Afghan by descend, who spent his early life in his neighboring Pushtun city of Peshawar, Pakistan. Ustad Shah Wali lives in Toronto and has voluntarily participated in the musical concerts, organized by the CPCA.

You may be able to find more information on this  talented Afghan artist on the internet. Also a number of Pushtun web sites offer his music collection. You may find some details about his personal life here.
