Mr. Speaker, young people matter. They are not just our future; they are our now.
I represented Canada at the Inter-Parliamentary Union's 151st assembly in Geneva, and the one thing I learned was that we need to meet young people where they are at. We need to include them in solving the challenges of our time, whether climate change; or humanitarian crises, including Gaza; or artificial intelligence. Their voices matter, and their innovation is going to help us in really solving these challenges.
I really want to challenge all of the members of the House to ensure that we are including young people in our politics and in our ridings, to ensure that they are included in and are at the forefront of what we need to do to solve our world's problems.
