Mr. Speaker, this month marks Women's History Month in Canada. It is a time to reflect on all of the incredible women who make our communities proud. Whether by breaking barriers in areas like politics, business, arts and culture, or sports, we must celebrate them and reflect on their courage. Today is Persons Day, marking the historic victory of the Famous Five, who paved the way for women in public life and politics. It is a reminder of the great progress we have made as a country. If it were not for their monumental steps, we may have not seen the 103 women in this chamber with us today. I want to recognize all women in leadership roles. Their success is a reminder to all of us of the potential we have to make an impact and change the world. I ask everyone to take a moment today to recognize the strong women in their lives, because when women thrive, we all thrive.
