These top businesses will be recognized on April 1 and, I can assure members that they are not fooling.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237235\" data-originallang=\"en\"> The Flamborough chamber is a very active organization in our community and is truly a model for supporting the small and medium-sized enterprises that are the backbone of the Canadian economy.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237236\" data-originallang=\"en\"> While every winner is outstanding in their own right, there will be two special awards given out this year that I want to highlight. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237237\" data-originallang=\"en\">First, the Lifetime Achievement Award will go to Jim Wilkinson of Wilkinson Heavy Precast. Jim is a past president of the Flamborough chamber and his business has been an innovative local manufacturer for over 60 years.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237238\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Second, the Town of Flamborough Award goes to Pat McNally for 40 years of service to the Rotary Club of Waterdown.

Ces prix, qui r\u00e9compensent les entreprises qui se sont particuli\u00e8rement distingu\u00e9es, seront remis le 1<sup>er</sup> avril, et je peux dire aux d\u00e9put\u00e9s que ce n'est pas un poisson d'avril.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237235\" data-originallang=\"en\">La chambre de commerce de Flamborough est tr\u00e8s active dans ma circonscription. C'est v\u00e9ritablement un mod\u00e8le \u00e0 suivre parce qu'elle soutient les PME, qui sont la pierre angulaire de l'\u00e9conomie canadienne.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237236\" data-originallang=\"en\">Tous les laur\u00e9ats sont exceptionnels, mais j'aimerais attirer l'attention de la Chambre sur deux prix sp\u00e9ciaux qui seront remis cette ann\u00e9e.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237237\" data-originallang=\"en\">Premi\u00e8rement, le prix Lifetime Achievement sera d\u00e9cern\u00e9 \u00e0 Jim Wilkinson, de l'entreprise Wilkinson Heavy Precast. Jim a d\u00e9j\u00e0 \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9sident de la chambre de commerce de Flamborough, et son entreprise locale de fabrication innove depuis plus de 60 ans. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237238\" data-originallang=\"en\">Deuxi\u00e8mement, le prix Town of Flamborough r\u00e9compensera Pat McNally pour ses 40 ans de service au Club Rotary de Waterdown. Ce qui est absolument extraordinaire, c'est que Pat a 101 ans et qu'il s'est d\u00e9vou\u00e9 toute sa vie pour sa communaut\u00e9. Il a un bilan de service communautaire incroyable.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237239\" data-originallang=\"en\">Au nom de tous les d\u00e9put\u00e9s, je tiens \u00e0 remercier et \u00e0 f\u00e9liciter la chambre de commerce ainsi que les entreprises florissantes de Flamborough.</p>"

J'\u00e9tais ministre de la Sant\u00e9 et je me souviens encore du moment o\u00f9 ce grand seau d'eau glac\u00e9e m'a \u00e9t\u00e9 vers\u00e9 sur la t\u00eate. Conjugu\u00e9 aux fonds publics, ce merveilleux d\u00e9fi a permis de recueillir 20 millions de dollars pour le financement de la recherche et 6 millions de dollars pour les programmes de soutien, mais nous pouvons faire davantage. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4237304\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je demande au premier ministre de se joindre \u00e0 moi aujourd'hui pour demander aux Canadiens d'un bout \u00e0 l'autre du pays d'appuyer les organismes qui luttent contre la scl\u00e9rose lat\u00e9rale amyotrophique, ou SLA, et qui tentent d'y trouver un rem\u00e8de.</p>"
