Nav Bhatia is instantly recognizable as the turbaned, fanatically exuberant Raptors superfan who’s courtside at every home game. As he tells Brian Lilley, he immigrated to Toronto from an India riven with ethnic conflict, to find peace and undreamed-of prosperity here. Discussing his new memoir, “The Heart of a Superfan,” Bhatia talks about his experience with bigotry, his rise to success, his love for the Raptors and why he thinks Canada is still the envy of the world. And he explains why he thinks all of us, including other immigrants, can do better than the angry protests in our streets and learn to love each other and leave intolerance behind.
