Thank you, Madam Chair.
Madam Qualtrough, my thanks to you and the folks who are here with you this morning.
I was about to write to a volunteer from the Jeux du Québec that were held in Longueuil in 2014. I also volunteered and it was a fantastic experience. What has often moved me to tears is seeing the feeling of accomplishment that sport can bring to youth. There is also the experience of working as a team, of being part of a great movement, of coming together and celebrating.
I heard that the 2016 Jeux du Québec organizers, which will be held in Montreal, is expecting news from your department about its funding. I have no doubt that it will receive it, but I wanted to point out that they are starting to be a bit concerned. The Olympic Games were held in Montreal in 1976, and it so happens that this is a nice anniversary.
