Mr. Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge the presence on Parliament Hill of four inspiring women: Amélie Gilbert, Daly Doucet, Florence Vézina and Maxime Fortin.
They recently organized a 48-hour cycling challenge during which they pedalled to raise money for Carrefour pour elle, an organization that works to end violence against women. Through their determination and commitment, they managed to raise over $5,000 to support this crucial cause. This event was much more than just an athletic challenge. It served to raise awareness and mobilize our communities around a fight that concerns us all.
On behalf of Mont-Saint-Bruno—L'Acadie, I commend them for their commitment.
