Mr. Speaker, it is with great sadness that I rise today to note the untimely passing of a northern sports hero. As Members are aware, Ms. Mary Beth Miller of Yellowknife was tragically taken from us while training at the Biathlon Canada camp in Valcartier, Quebec.

Mr. Speaker, Mary Beth had ambitions that inspired us all. Her successes ranged from the Arctic Winter Games to the North American Biathlon Championships, to the World University Games. She was a role model and a champion. Our deepest sympathies go to her family and her friends during this most difficult time. Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.
