Mr. Speaker, it is a privilege to rise in the House today to recognize a constituent of mine who has received the Prime Minister's Award for Teaching Excellence. Margaret Burke began her career as an early childhood educator in 1978 and has been caring for little ones in her community ever since. Margaret trail-blazed to create accessible and accommodating learning spaces for children of all abilities. This was particularly impactful during the early years of her work, as during this period, many complex learning needs went unaddressed. In the words of her colleagues, Margaret is a true leader in her field and continues to inspire them with her passion and her commitment to the children and families in Glace Bay and beyond. With that, on behalf of my constituents in Cape Breton—Canso, I extend my heartfelt congratulations again to Margaret Burke on this award for teaching excellence.
