Mr. Speaker, as we get ready for the holidays, as always, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the residents of Vancouver Granville. We are all made better by their ideas, engagement and solutions, and I am so grateful to serve them.
The holidays are a time to take care of one another, and that is why the two-month GST holiday that starts this Saturday will make the holidays a little bit brighter. Together we are delivering on things that matter to most every Canadian. In Vancouver Granville there are four institutions, the Hellenic Community of Vancouver, the Vancouver Fringe Festival, the Vancouver Maritime Museum and the planetarium, that will all receive change-making funding to expand and improve their services and buildings.
As we head into the holidays, let us be kind to one another, reach out to those in need and be grateful for the fact that we live in the best country on earth. Merry Christmas. Happy Hanukkah. Khushali Mubarak.
