Mr. Speaker, I am very proud to announce that the 7th Quebec City area cadet games will be held in my riding of Charlesbourg—Haute-Saint-Charles, at the Polyvalente de Charlesbourg, on March 2, 3 and 4, 2007.
These games will bring together more than 600 male and female cadets and nearly 100 staff members from 23 units in the greater Quebec City area.
During this weekend of competitions, the cadets will compete in various events.
The cadet program, nearly 2,000 strong in the Quebec City area, is designed to develop in youth attributes of leadership, team spirit and physical fitness.
I am inviting everyone to come and cheer for our cadets, for the continuation of this program and the delight of the many young people enrolled in it.
I look forward to seeing you at the 7th cadet games, in Charlesbourg, on March 2, 3 and 4.
