Mr. Speaker, I want to acknowledge the 80th anniversary of Courrier Laval, a fixture in local news and a key part of Laval's community life. For eight decades, this newspaper has upheld journalistic standards, remained close to its audience, and maintained its commitment to them, keeping them informed and bringing them together.
From the very first edition written by its founder, José Limoges, to the most recent edition, led by Martin Olivier and Patrick Marsan, Courrier Laval has changed with the times while remaining true to its mission: to reflect the reality of Laval and to highlight its successes, its challenges and the people who shape its identity.
At a time when information travels at such high speeds, local media remains key to preserving our culture and our democracy and bringing people together.
I congratulate the entire team on 80 years of service, dedication and passion.
