[ Dave Hayer Wikipedia - original reference ] In 2007, Hayer received a Pravasi Bharatia Samman Award from the Government of India which is annually given to people of Indian heritage, no longer living in India, who have achieved excellence in their chosen fields of endeavour.[6] The award was presented by A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, the President of India, at a ceremony in New Delhi, India for Hayer's "active leadership in the community, his contributions to public service and for his achievements in government." Hayer was the second Canadian to be presented with this honour.[citation needed]
