Mr. Speaker, today, I would like to highlight two examples of our country's cultural wealth.
First, we started this month with Festa della Repubblica, the Italian National Day and Republic Day. I know that many of my constituents celebrated on June 2, and I want to thank them for their active participation in the communities of Rivière-des-Prairies and Anjou. They have been integral to making our society more dynamic.
Happy Italian Heritage Month.
Second, I would like to mention Quebec's upcoming national holiday. On June 24, our community will mark Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day by organizing all kinds of activities to celebrate Quebec culture and the French language.
Let us come together and take pride in our cultural diversity. Long live Honoré-Mercier, long live Quebec, and long live Canada.
