Mr. Speaker, a Canadian downhill skier, Mélanie Turgeon, delivered two outstanding performances at the Women's World Cup on the weekend.
After winning the gold on Saturday, Mélanie pulled off an amazing second-place finish in the Super-G, taking the silver medal in that event. She is the first Canadian to win a World Cup event in seven years.
Mélanie worked hard to reach these heights. We offer our heartiest congratulations and encourage her to keep up the great work.
Canada is proud of the achievements of this young Quebecer. Brome—Missisquoi and all of Canada celebrate her victory.
Mélanie is an example of tenacity and perseverance for young people. Bravo, Mélanie.
