Mr. Speaker, Laval is known for having an abundance of resources and services for seniors. In 1993, the City of Laval demonstrated its innovative vision by establishing the first Place des aînés in the province of Quebec, a centre that offers a variety of activities and services and that has over 3,600 members.
Since this is Laval Seniors' Week, which runs from October 12 to 23, I want to take a moment to thank seniors for their contribution to our community and all the volunteer work they do. The importance of seniors to our economy is often underestimated.
Thank you for your wonderful solidarity. Your work toward the common goal of contributing to the good of the Laval community is appreciated.
