Mr. Speaker, on October 24, the pupils of Lemoyne-d'Iberville school held a special ceremony to mark the International Day of Peace, by presenting me with a banner bearing a number of messages of peace.
Their school is one of the Brundtland Green Schools, which share of vision of hope for a better world. This collective effort is a visible sign of their desire to live in a world at peace.
In order to show my solidarity with the cause we share, I promised the children that I would hand this banner over to the Prime Minister of Canada, so that he is aware of their concrete actions to build a viable future and create a world in keeping with their aspirations.
Congratulations to everyone involved in this remarkable feat and thank you for sharing with us your convictions and for contributing to shaping Quebec society.
