Mr. Speaker, this week is National AccessAbility Week. I would like to recognize the incredible contributions made by people living with disabilities and the organizations that represent them. Persons with disabilities, advocates and organizations work tirelessly to remove barriers. They ensure the full participation of more than eight million Canadians with disabilities. It is by working together with the disability community that we have made progress. This year's theme is “Forward Together: Accessibility and Inclusion for All”. Collective efforts are needed from all sectors of society. We need this in order to reach a barrier-free Canada by 2040. I invite my colleagues and all Canadians to celebrate the exceptional work being done by so many. Let us continue working toward a more accessible and inclusive society, a more accessible and inclusive Canada.
