I have received over 100 heartfelt letters from children of all ages. We need to work together to improve the well-being of children from all nations as they are truly the future of the planet. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to recognize in the House this country's greatest asset, our children. In March 1993 the Government of Canada designated November 20 as National Child Day. To mark this occasion, communities across Canada are hosting a variety of activities and events to celebrate children and their families.
Parents love children because they remember being loved so much by their own parents.
And despite all the hard work, taking care of children and seeing them grow and develop into fine people gives most parents their greatest satisfaction in life. To reflect on children we see that this is creation, this is our visible immortality. Today is National Child Day. It should serve to remind us all that every day is a good day to love our children. This is complicity in the degrading politics of an undemocratic, unaccountable institution.
