Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Some people were already too few in number and already burdened with heavy responsibilities even before the COVID-19 crisis occurred.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my admiration for the dedication of all the essential workers who stepped up in the riding of Lévis—Lotbinière. This crisis has created pressing needs and unprecedented emergencies. Fine men and women committed to human dignity, volunteers, retirees, and you, who have wisely agreed to stay home, you have been part, to varying degrees, of this great equation to minimize the impact of the spread and avoid the worst.
The snow has melted, the flowers have arrived. Many children are happy to be able to expend their energy again; our seniors are being cuddled, with great care, and our essential workers in the riding are still dedicated to the job.
I say “bravo”, “thank you” and “don't give up”, even though you have already earned your place in heaven.
