Scouts Canada has experienced three successive years of significant growth. Today, Scouts Canada is a highly diverse co-educational organization with over 100,000 members nationwide, representing many faiths and cultures. Scouts offers programming in over 19 languages reflecting Canada's multicultural landscape.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2688325\" data-originallang=\"en\">Scouting is both a program and lifestyle that has a positive impact on the lives of thousands of children and youth, focusing on the integrated physical, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual development of the individual. Scouts Canada has made an enormous contribution to its communities and in the process, its members are learning valuable life skills and becoming better citizens.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2688326\" data-originallang=\"en\">I was a scout for eight years, involved in the scouting movement in Taiwan, Japan, Canada and the United States. Scouting has certainly enriched my life.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2688327\" data-originallang=\"en\"> I ask all parliamentarians to rise today to recognize Scouts Canada and L' Association des Scouts du Canada, their service to our nation, and to remind members of the reception later today.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2688323\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, j'ai le plaisir de prendre la parole pour souhaiter la bienvenue aux membres de Scouts Canada et de l'Association des scouts du Canada, qui sont aujourd'hui \u00e0 Ottawa \u00e0 l'occasion de leur 100<sup>e</sup> anniversaire.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2688324\" data-originallang=\"en\">Scouts Canada, l'une des principales organisations pour les jeunes, offre des programmes aux filles et aux gar\u00e7ons des villes et des villages de l'ensemble du Canada, notre merveilleux pays. L'organisme a connu trois ann\u00e9es cons\u00e9cutives de croissance importante. Aujourd'hui, Scouts Canada est un organisme \u00e9ducatif tr\u00e8s diversifi\u00e9 qui compte plus de 100 000 membres d'un bout \u00e0 l'autre du Canada et qui repr\u00e9sente diff\u00e9rentes confessions et cultures. \u00c0 l'image de la mosa\u00efque culturelle du Canada, il offre des programmes dans plus de 19 langues.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2688325\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le scoutisme est \u00e0 la fois un programme et un mode de vie, et il a des r\u00e9percussions positives dans la vie de milliers d'enfants et de jeunes. Il vise le d\u00e9veloppement int\u00e9gral de l'individu sur les plans physique, intellectuel, affectif, social et spirituel. L'apport de Scouts Canada \u00e0 la collectivit\u00e9 est \u00e9norme. De plus, ses membres acqui\u00e8rent de pr\u00e9cieuses connaissances pratiques et deviennent de meilleurs citoyens. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2688326\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'ai \u00e9t\u00e9 scout pendant huit ans et j'ai particip\u00e9 au mouvement scout \u00e0 Ta\u00efwan, au Japon, au Canada et aux \u00c9tats-Unis. Le scoutisme a vraiment enrichi ma vie.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2688327\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je demande \u00e0 tous les parlementaires de saluer aujourd'hui Scouts Canada et l'Association des scouts du Canada pour les services rendus \u00e0 notre pays. Je leur rappelle qu'il y aura une r\u00e9ception tout \u00e0 l'heure. </p>"
