He has recently completed a 2,000 km bike ride from Buenos Aries to Tierra del Fuego in memory of his brother Simon, who suffered from depression and tragically took his own life 10 years ago. Through this impressive feat, Rapha\u00ebl has raised over $4,000 for the Canadian Mental Health Association. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3961321\" data-originallang=\"en\">Twenty per cent of Canadians will personally experience a mental illness in their lifetime. We all know that mental illness indirectly affects all Canadians through a family member, a friend, a neighbour, or a colleague.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3961322\" data-originallang=\"en\">I ask the House to join me in applauding Rapha\u00ebl's incredible determination in the face of such tragedy and encourage all Canadians to work together to continue to raise awareness about mental illness. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3961323\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Congratulations, Rapha\u00ebl.</p>",

Rapha\u00ebl Gu\u00e9vin-Nicoloff a r\u00e9cemment parcouru \u00e0 v\u00e9lo le trajet de 2 000 kilom\u00e8tres de Buenos Aires \u00e0 la Terre de Feu en m\u00e9moire de son fr\u00e8re Simon, qui \u00e9tait en d\u00e9pression et qui s'en enlev\u00e9 la vie il y a 10 ans. Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 son impressionnant exploit, Rapha\u00ebl a recueilli plus de 4 000 $ pour l'Association canadienne pour la sant\u00e9 mentale. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3961321\" data-originallang=\"en\">Rappelons que 20 % des Canadiens auront une maladie mentale au cours de leur vie. Comme on le sait, tous les Canadiens sont touch\u00e9s par la maladie mentale, que ce soit par un membre de la famille, un ami, un voisin ou un coll\u00e8gue. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3961322\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'invite tous les d\u00e9put\u00e9s \u00e0 se joindre \u00e0 moi pour f\u00e9liciter Rapha\u00ebl de son admirable d\u00e9termination face \u00e0 un tel drame. J'encourage aussi tous les Canadiens \u00e0 continuer d'unir leurs efforts pour faire mieux conna\u00eetre la maladie mentale.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3961323\" data-originallang=\"fr\">F\u00e9licitations, Rapha\u00ebl!</p>"
