Mr. Speaker, on September 23, a fire ravaged Patro Roc‑Amadour, in the heart of Limoilou. A true pillar of our community, this organization supports hundreds of families, children, seniors, and people living with disabilities every week.
The losses are staggering. Over $100,000 in food has been destroyed, and essential services, such as meals on wheels, have been disrupted. The community rallied immediately. In Beauport—Limoilou, solidarity is not just a word, it is a way of life. Locals, volunteers and organizations have already come together to support Patro and help it get back up and running. This outpouring of generosity shows how strong our community is. When adversity strikes, we answer the call.
I urge everyone to give what they can to Patro Roc‑Amadour so that it can reopen and continue to feed, support and bring together our community.
