Mr. Speaker, happy Italian Heritage Month, a time to recognize, celebrate and honour the immeasurable contributions of Italian Canadians while showcasing the rich Italian culture, heritage and gastronomy. [Member spoke in Italian] [English] The Quiet Immigrant project, titled le femmine forti, is a tribute to the brave Italian women who immigrated to Canada after World War II. Through sheer strength of character, with neither fanfare nor complaint, they wove their way into Canada's social fabric. These are our nonnas, our mothers, wives and our daughters, including mine—Eliana, Natalia and Leia—who will carry the rich Italian Canadian legacy for years to come. [Member spoke in Italian] [English] This Italian Heritage Month, join me in sharing and celebrating the stories of these brave Italian women. [Member spoke in Italian] [English]
