Mr. Speaker, I rise today to mark the 350th anniversary of Châteauguay, which has grown from the seigneury offered to Charles Le Moyne into the city we know today. Our entire shared history is what we are celebrating on this important anniversary. We are celebrating 350 years of courage, solidarity and living in harmony. This important anniversary represents our many stories and shared history. Many thanks to all those who have contributed to building this magnificent and prosperous community. Châteauguay has a rich past, a present it can be proud of, and a future it can look forward to with confidence.

Mr. Speaker, organizations and their volunteers are the heart of community life across Canada. They help to make our lives better, ensure a social safety net and strengthen community ties. Today, I want to mark the anniversaries of two wonderful organizations in my riding of Châteauguay—Lacolle. First, I want to wish a happy 20th anniversary to Les toits d'Émile, which was named in honour of poet Émile Nelligan. This organization has spent two decades providing people with mental illness with supervised apartments and activities to break their isolation. Next, I want to wish a happy 30th anniversary to Club des ornithologues de Châteauguay. In addition to birdwatching, members of this group also support biodiversity, rally together to protect natural environments, and set up birdhouses for nesting. I hope these organizations will be around for many years to come.
