Samanta Krishnapilai describes herself as a reluctant optimist, collectivist, accidental entrepreneur and creative problem solver. She founded On Canada Project in April 2020.

Samanta is the first descendant of both sets of grandparents to be born in Canada, on the lands of the [Haudenosaunee] and [Mohawk] people. Her parents were born in Sri Lanka and left because of the state-sanctioned oppression and genocide of the Tamil people on that land, a direct result of the centuries of colonization that occurred on that Island before the British finally left in 1948. While her family did not benefit from colonization in Sri Lanka, Samanta and her family do benefit from colonization here in Canada.
