HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CANADA! It’s 150 years since
Canada was born as a country. In our communities in our constituency, we are
celebrating with barbecues, parades, and parties in our communities.
We have great volunteers organizing these
celebrations in our communities; please help us to recognize them. I will be
awarding special Canada 150 Certificates and Medals to Bow River constituents
who have made a remarkable contribution to our communities.
Do you know people who have:
·
Gone above and beyond?
·
Been outstanding contributors
to the Bow River Riding?
·
Been tireless volunteers for
various causes or organizations within our many communities, especially for
Canada 150 events?
I know that there are many of these people in
our Riding, who have made an incredible difference in our communities. I want
to hear who these people are.
Please call my office to nominate somebody for
this initiative. It’s important that we recognize residents of the Bow River
Riding for their incredible contributions to our communities.
I know we are all very excited and enthusiastic
about celebrating the 150th year of our great nation, and I am
inviting you to celebrate by nominating somebody who gives a part of themselves
back to their community.
I have also made an appeal to each and every
one of you to come and see your Parliament in this 150th year of
Confederation. The Centre Block will be closed for up to 15 years beginning in
the summer of next year, so the best time to see your buildings right now.
I recognize the Honourable Rona Ambrose, Interim
Leader of the Official Opposition and of the Conservative Party. She announced
this week that she would be leaving politics altogether to move on to other
projects. After 13 years as M.P., Minister of the Crown, and now Leader of the
Official Opposition, she has conducted herself with dignity, grace, and
stature. I hope you will join me in recognizing her contribution to Canada.
Please
contact one of my offices with any questions or comments.
