Thank you, Mr. Chair.
We're celebrating Black history month and the reality is that racialized communities, including the Black community, face specific challenges with regard to community organizations and the funding necessary to promote the business of Black entrepreneurs.
There is a large Black community in my riding and it faces challenges every day. I think this motion comes at the right time to help us clearly understand how we can do better for this community, which is spread across the entire country. We have a duty to support it more effectively and this motion is a timely encouragement to address certain issues.
