Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’d like to proudly recognize a few of my constituents that will be representing Fort Providence in the Northwest Territories during this Arctic Winter Games in Fairbanks, Alaska.
Michael Leishman is a high school teacher who will be chaperoning four students of Fort Providence and will be attending the Arctic Winter Games. He’s also one of the coaches who will be coaching the table tennis tournaments.
Christina Bonnetrouge, 16, is in Grade 10. She will be trying out for the juvenile women’s badminton. Christina has always been in sports. One of her favourite sports is soccer.
Spencer Bonnetrouge, 17, is in Grade 12. He’ll be playing in the junior men’s badminton. Spencer has played hockey and soccer as long as he can remember.
Nathaniel Minoza, 17, will be trying out in the junior men’s table tennis.
Mikaela Vandell, 15, will also try to win a medal in the juvenile women’s table tennis.
These students are very excited and this will be their first time going to the Arctic Winter Games. Good luck to them all, and I hope they can bring back home a medal.
