Mr. Speaker, Cintec International is a winner at this year's prestigious Queen's Award for Innovation.
The company's North American headquarters is located in Nepean. The chief operating officer, Robert Lloyd-Rees, is justifiably proud of this recognition.
The Queen's award, by the way, is the highest honour that can be bestowed on a company.
The company specializes in bridge and building reinforcements using an anchor system which is installed entirely within the structure leaving no visible change to the exterior. This process is ideal for historic buildings. Its services have been used interestingly at Rideau Hall and right here in our parliament buildings.
Congratulations to this innovative and now highly honoured company.
