On November 2, 2004 The Powell River Peak reported, "Although small, Powell River's Sikh community is strong, and is working with other local faiths to build bridges between cultures. On November 8, Sikhs in Powell River and all over the world will celebrate the birthday of the first founder of Sikhism, Guru Nanak Dev Sahib. Members of Powell River's Sikh society--or Guru Arjan Dev Sikh Society after the fifth guru--will celebrate the day by spending the morning in prayer at the Sikh temple on Nootka Street followed by a lunch in the community hall in the basement of the temple."
