MP joins others in commemorating Merchant Navy Veterans Day

There was no better way for MPP Stephen Blais and me to end the summer than by spending time with more than 600 residents at our Annual Corn Roast & Community BBQ on Aug. 29 at Petrie Island. It was simply amazing to see you all!

I would like to thank the Orléans Lions Club, Friends of Petrie Island, and Orléans Myers, as well as the Venvi Portobello Retirement Residence, for being leaders and partners in our community!.

Without your support, we would not have been able to have such a successful event! Moreover, a special thanks goes out to the organizations on site with a booth and to the 632 Phoenix Squadron cadets for your helping with the set up and takedown! To our community police officer and the firefighters present, thank you for coming out and for keeping Orléans safe.

It is with great emotion that I joined the Agoro family to mark the 22nd Annual Dapo Fun Day on Aug. 31. It is an opportunity to bring awareness to violence in our community while providing a positive alternative for youth in celebration of the arts, physical activity, and increased youth engagement.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Merchant Navy Veterans Day Act, which designated Sept. 3 as Merchant Navy Day. It was an honour to represent Canada at the Merchant Navy Day Ceremony that took place at the National War Memorial on Sept. 8.

We gathered to commemorate some 12,000 Canadian and Newfoundland merchant mariners who performed during the Second World War a life-saving service, delivering millions of tons of desperately needed food, equipment, fuel, and personnel to Britain and Europe, and for too long, did not receive the recognition and honour they so rightly deserved. Lest we forget.

I want to recognize the Shenkman Arts Centre for celebrating 15 years of dedication to provide opportunities for the community through the arts and for being a creative hub where artists and audiences meet to explore a diversity of arts through live performance, instruction, exhibits, and special events.

Finally, we could all see school buses driving in our neighborhoods in the last few weeks as we marked the back-to-school season. I want to wish all the best to our students in elementary, high school, college, and university who started their school year. Best of luck to all and have a wonderful school year!
