Mr. Speaker, it is Women's History Month, and I would like to congratulate Marie-Christine Boucher, a woman from my riding of Trois-Rivières, on her appointment as senior director of business operations for the Professional Women's Hockey League.
This appointment is a testament not only to her expertise and commitment to the development of women's hockey, but also to the influence that Trois-Rivières's local talent has throughout North America. Most importantly, it is a testament to the major contribution women are making in the world of sports, both on the field and behind the bench.
As enthusiasm for women's hockey continues to grow around the world, her leadership will help the PWHL consolidate its position on the international stage and inspire a new generation of young female players.
Once again, I offer her my congratulations on this great achievement. Trois-Rivières is proud to have one of our own in such an important position.
Congratulations, Marie-Christine.
