Mr. Speaker, I would like to report to the House on two great events my wife and I attended regularly. On Sunday, November 28 we participated in the Canadian Martyrs Catholic Church Seniors' Supper. This annual event is interdenominational in nature and many Cranberry Portage volunteers support this tangible gesture to honour our seniors. Twenty-five seniors enjoyed the festive event and 27 suppers were delivered to those seniors and shut-ins who could not attend. I extend a big thank you to all volunteers who helped make this fabulous meal for our seniors a reality. The second event my wife and I attended was the Christmas concert presented by the Flin Flon Community Choir at the R.H. Channing Auditorium on the evening of Saturday, December 4. The Flin Flon Choir consists of 80 members. It was truly a gala evening of Christmas entertainment, including an impressive Christmas tableau, great carols and recitations. Yes, even Santa made an appearance, and commented on quirks and peculiarities of northerners. It was truly entertaining. Again, I applaud the many volunteers who made this Christmas event a reality, and in particularly I would like to thank choir director Crystal Kolt, accompanist Mark Kolt and production manager Katy Anderson. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to wish all my constituents, all the members of this House and, indeed, all Manitobans a happy and safe Christmas.
