Mr. Speaker, I am rising to recognize the Canadian Cancer Society's Daffodil Day.
We wear yellow daffodil pins as symbols of hope: hope for new treatments and new breakthroughs; hope for comprehensive care, including psychosocial support for those living with cancer and their families; and hope for a country that has social policies that reduce stress, anxiety and financial barriers for cancer patients seeking treatment.
In honour and in memory of those who cancer has taken away, let us recommit ourselves to make this hope a reality.
Let us take this opportunity to thank the Canadian Cancer Society for 75 years of incredible fight against cancer.
Together, we will find a cure.
