Mr. Speaker, I rise in the House today to congratulate the B.C. Lions on an absolutely outstanding season, a brilliant win in the Grey Cup and keeping our treasured cup in Canada.
The B.C. Lions exceeded our expectations and defended Canada's honour by ensuring that a no-name team returned home as it arrived, empty handed. The Lions have made all Vancouverites, British Columbians and Canadians proud.
On behalf of all members of Parliament and all constituents of Vancouver South, I congratulate a fantastic victory by our football team, the B.C. Lions.
