Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to and congratulate Mr. Max McLean of Camrose, Alberta. Mr. McLean was recently named "Moose Citizen of the Year" by the local chamber of commerce.
This award is presented each year to a person who has made outstanding contributions to the community. As a full time volunteer, Max has devoted his energy and enthusiasm to canvassing for the Canadian Cancer Society, selling journals for the Canadian Diabetic Association and helping to raise money for Ronald McDonald House.
Max's extensive involvement in the community spans almost 50 years of dedicated service to his community. May Max McLean, who believes volunteers play an important role in making Camrose a better place to live, be a model for all Canadians.
