Madam Speaker, I rise today to draw attention to the work of Wounded Warriors Canada, an organization in my riding of Whitby. This organization helps ill or injured members of the Canadian Armed Forces, veterans, and first responders, in recognition of their service.
In early fall, Wounded Warriors Canada organized the Highway of Heroes bike ride in which 200 cyclists participated.
The ride raised more than $200,000 to support ill and injured Canadian veterans.
Many of us participated in the 22 Push Ups challenge, which raised funds and awareness for Wounded Warriors.
On behalf of the organization and the people it serves, I say thanks. And I wish a happy anniversary to Phil Ralph.
