She now holds the distinct position of being only the second of two people from Fredericton to receive this recognition in the six-year history of the award.</p>\n<p>Constituents, New Brunswickers and her parents are obviously very proud.</p>\n<p>Competition is fierce for the YTV award since only 15 are presented annually. Categories for the competition range from dance to entrepreneurship, and more than 1,000 young Canadians are nominated each year.</p>\n<p>I look forward to seeing Measha at the awards ceremony here at the National Arts Centre tonight. On behalf of the people of Fredericton-York-Sunbury, I wish her well in her national television performance.</p>",
