Mr. Speaker, in honour of Black History Month, I am proud to rise today to speak on three inspirational and influential groups in my community of Newmarket—Aurora. Throughout my time as a member of Parliament, I have witnessed the courage, the resilience and the empowerment the Aurora Black Community Association, the Aurora Black Caucus and the Newmarket African Caribbean Canadian Association have demonstrated to create an inclusive and a safe community. This month is a time to learn, to reflect, to honour and to celebrate the contributions of Black Canadians and organizations who make our communities a safer place to live. I want to thank them for their ongoing contributions to our community and for enacting real and permanent change in Newmarket—Aurora.
