Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the talented student athletes at Carleton University, located in my community of Ottawa Centre, who just a few weeks ago captured both the 2023 men's and women's national basketball championships. These exceptional accomplishments reflect the dedication, hard work and perseverance of these young athletes as well as their coaches and the entire Carleton University community. The Ravens have been a force in U Sports basketball for some time, and they have now become the first school since 1985 to win the men's and women's titles in the same season. On behalf of all members of Parliament in the House, I want to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the Carleton Ravens basketball teams for their exceptional performances this year, with more to come in 2024 and beyond. Congratulations, Carleton! We are proud of them.

Mr. Speaker, I have two petitions to present today. The first one says, whereas children and youth have the right to participate in any sport in Canada free of maltreatment, abuse and harm, athletes' human rights are being violated. With the current sports system approach, which lacks a transparent mechanism completely independent of sport to address maltreatment complaints, an inquiry has been set with the Dublin Inquiry. These petitioners are calling on the House of Commons to call a judicial inquiry into the sports system of Canada.
