All of us can remember a teacher who had a particular impact on our life.</p>\n<p>Teachers contribute to Canada's future by teaching tomorrow's adults. In recognition and gratitude for their devoted service to society, I would ask the House to join with me in wishing them an excellent day and a great school year.</p>",
