Mr. Speaker, I am thrilled to rise today to welcome the Kanata-Carleton Youth Council to the House of Commons. It is an honour to welcome our youth prime minister, Jacqueline Carson; and fellow members, Kosar, Yalda, Santiago, Natalia, Dominic and Gray. Not only are these youth our future; they are our leaders today.
Like many young people, the youth council members care deeply about the issues that matter to young Canadians: mental health, climate change and fiscal policy. They are using their voices to make a real difference right now in our communities, in our schools and in our world.
Mr. Speaker and colleagues, please join me in giving a warm welcome to the amazing members of the Kanata-Carleton Youth Council.
