Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, today I would like to recognize Pat Thomas, who has recently been chosen as the aboriginal delegate for the Canadian Teachers' Federation delegation to the annual general meeting of Education International. This organization represents 23 million teachers from around the world, and Pat will be going down to Washington, DC to be a delegate there for the Canadian Teachers' Association. Also, with Pat in the
gallery today are two long-term educators, Pat Burnstad, who is my neighbour and a teacher from the high school and Dana Anlunis. Welcome.
--Applause
