Mr. Speaker, the Governor General's Caring Canadian Award was recently presented to Laurent Migué, a resident of Repentigny.
In 1983, Laurent Migué founded the Association de Repentigny pour l'avancement de la musique, or ARAM, to foster greater interest in classical music and the arts, particularly among young people.
As president, he organized the association's fundraising activities, staging numerous events such as benefit nights.
Mr. Migué is the heart of the association, to which he has dedicated himself body and soul for nearly 20 years. The Association currently presents more than 450 artistic events per year, involving over 10,000 participants.
Through his tremendous dedication, Mr. Migué has helped local musicians develop their skills and enriched the lives of music lovers.
Bravo and thank you, Mr. Migué.
