520			_a"Messages to Canada" by Shoghi Effendi is a historical account written in the mid-20th century. The work comprises a collection of letters and communications directed toward the Canadian Bahá'í community, detailing the establishment, development, and organizational strategies pivotal to the Bahá'í Faith in Canada. The text outlines significant events and initiatives undertaken by the community, including the implementation of various plans to promote and consolidate the teachings of Bahá'u'lláh across the nation. At the start of the text, Shoghi Effendi addresses the Bahá'í believers in Canada, expressing his joy at establishing direct correspondence. He emphasizes the importance of the community's role in breaking down prejudices and sectarian beliefs through the teachings of the Faith. The initial letters highlight the community's early struggles and triumphs, particularly the election of the first National Assembly and the commissioning of a Five-Year Plan aimed at recruitment, education, and establishing local spiritual assemblies. Effendi's words serve as a call to action, inspiring steadfastness among the Canadian Bahá'ís as they undertake various missions to further the Faith during a crucial time in its history.
