Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure to mark the third edition of St. Lawrence Week.
This event is important to me, especially because the majestic river's north shore runs for 350 kilometres along my entire riding, from Quebec City to Colombier.
I want all of my constituents to realize how important it is to get to know our river and thus realize that it is fragile and that we are mutually dependent. We should acknowledge the many benefits we derive from this great river by personally getting involved in protecting it and preserving it for future generations.
We can show our support by attending this event and participating in great numbers in the many activities offered during St. Lawrence Week.
