Mr. Speaker, today I want to congratulate the residents of the municipality of Clare for their generous efforts.
These people had long awaited the construction of a multi purpose building, which would house only a curling rink and accommodate trade exhibitions, farmers' markets, craft shows and such.
The dream is now a reality through the work of a group of volunteers who generously gave their time and energy to this project. Under the leadership of Charles Surette, these people mobilized the rest of the community and the Yarmouth HDRC and set to work providing 2,000 hours of volunteer labour, so that soon life will be better for the residents of Clare.
It appears that in the municipality of Clare civic pride and the willingness to volunteer are alive and well.
