Mr. Speaker, the London Cross Cultural Learner Centre is a multifaceted facility that has provided services to newcomers to Canada for over 25 years. The centre has evolved into a unique combination of programs and services that are based on cross cultural learning within the community.
To promote global education in the community the centre provides a resource centre and regularly hosts guest speakers, screens films and holds special exhibits. As well the centre collaborates with the Department of Citizenship and Immigration and the community to initiate language instruction to new Canadians or LINC.
There is a growing cultural diversity in the community of London-Middlesex. I commend the dedication and commitment of the individuals who have worked to create such a unique cultural learning centre.
