Mr. Speaker, tonight, the Stanley Cup finals begin and our Edmonton Oilers have once again brought the heart and the pride of oil country back to the finals.
From Connor McDavid's incredible skills to Stuart Skinner's resilience in net, this team has shown Canadians what determination, teamwork and dedication look like. Behind every goal and every save is a city united, cheering from living rooms to patios and, yes, even right here on Parliament Hill. This season, the energy is electric and Canadians from coast to coast to coast are rallying behind a team that embodies grit, passion and true Canadian spirit. In fact, the Toronto CN Tower and Montreal's Samuel de Champlain Bridge will be lit up in orange and blue tonight.
Let us bring the Stanley Cup home, back from the U.S. to Canada, where it belongs. Go, Oilers, go.
