Hi, everyone. Thanks for being here today.
I would have preferred that we were in the better city of Alberta, but it's okay. We'll make do.
I'm the proud member of Parliament for Calgary Forest Lawn. Also, I'm the shadow minister of finance for the Conservative Party.
I was born in Dubai. I moved here when I was five. Kind of like Jaskiran said, I come from a lower-income family. I'm blessed to be here where I am today after going through.... An at-risk youth is what I was designated as, but, through the blessings of God and this country, I'm here today as a member of Parliament. That's a little bit about me.
I ran a home-building business before this and also ran an after-school program for at-risk youth, so that's where most of my passion is today.
Thanks for being here.
