Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to rise today to recognize some well-deserving students from Bruce—Grey—Owen Sound who earned the right to participate in the Canada-Wide Science Fair in Edmonton just a few weeks ago. Nearly 400 student finalists from across the country took part in this national science fair, where they vied for over $2 million in scholarships and prizes. The six students from Bluewater District School Board did not disappoint. Proudly representing my riding were Lily Kennedy and Karis Curry of St. Mary's in Owen Sound, with their project "Harmonizing Your Coffee Senses", and Blake and Madelyn Howes of John Diefenbaker Senior School in Hanover, with their project "The Science of Smiles”, which earned them a silver excellence award medal, a University of Alberta scholarship worth $1,500 and a Western University scholarship worth an additional $2,000. As someone with a science degree, I am optimistic about what our youth have in store for the future of scientific discovery in Canada. Again, I send my congratulations to all those who participated in the Canada-Wide Science Fair.
