Mr. Speaker, on the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Saint-Eugène School in Mont-Laurier, I want to recognize the outstanding work of all the partners who made it possible to produce a publication on the history of this important institution, which was founded in 1950.
I spent some very happy years as a student at the school and I have fond memories of my time there, particularly since my father, Gaston Gaudreau, was the school principal during my last year of elementary school. In addition to my wonderful experience, I want to acknowledge this school's part in the history of education and the legacy left by all those who, over the years, worked to make this school a welcoming place focused on helping students to thrive.
I hope that this place of learning will continue to provide a good education to future generations. I wish continued success for the Saint-Eugène School in Mont-Laurier, a precious piece of our region's heritage.
