Spoke in the House of Commons about the Richmond Multicultural Community Services Society
On June 8, 2016, Alice Wong gave a Member’s Statement on the Richmond Multicultural Community Services Society.
The following is a transcript:
Hon. Alice Wong (Richmond Centre, CPC):
Mr. Speaker, I recently had the opportunity to attend a volunteer appreciation event hosted by Richmond Multicultural Community Services. RMCS welcomes newcomers to Canada and strives to assist them with needs, such as language development and job search skills.
I was able to meet with volunteers of all ages and backgrounds from across my riding. They are committed to engaging in our community and providing services to new immigrants and refugees.
Over the past number of years, I have been able to partner with this organization, and I am proud of the work they do in my riding of Richmond Centre. I admire the leadership they show as they promote multiculturalism and diversity in Richmond.
Congratulations to all of the volunteers who were recently honoured at RMCS. I thank them all for their hard work.
