Mr. Speaker, the Winter Paralympics are being held in Salt Lake City, Utah, until March 16.
The Paralympics are based on three principles: the awakening of the mind, the liberation of the body and the inspiration of the emotions. These athletes have shown us that they possess an unshakeable will and exemplary determination when the mind overcomes physical obstacles in the pursuit of the highest summits of their sport.
Quebecers can follow the example of these athletes in the attainment of their dream. These are athletes who reach beyond their own limits.
On behalf of the Bloc Quebecois, I wish all the athletes and trainers taking part in these games, as well as the medical staff who play a large role in the athletes' success, the best of luck. We are all proud of you.
