Mr. Speaker, the Skate Canada Junior National Championships will be held February 2 to 5 at the PEPS complex at Laval University in Quebec City.
These championships are an opportunity to see our talented young skaters in the following categories: juvenile, pre-novice, novice, men, women and pairs. Today's skaters will be tomorrow's Olympic medalists. They deserve our wholehearted encouragement for their efforts.
This type of competition allows them to see how they rank against each other, but above all to acquire the experience they need to succeed.
The Bloc Québécois wishes the best of luck to all the skaters and hopes that this competition gives them a taste of success and achievement.
