Hi, I’m Alice Wong, Minister of State for Seniors and Member of Parliament for Richmond. Canada’s veterans have served this country with distinction, their willingness to defend democracy, freedom, and the rule of law, sets them apart as the very best our country has to offer.

Hi, I’m Alice Wong, Member of Parliament for Richmond and Minister of State for Seniors. It’s my pleasure and honour to extend my best wishes this Lunar New Year to all new Canadians of Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese descent. Not only is this time of year characterized by long-standing traditions, celebrations and beliefs, it also honours the history and ancient customs of one of the world’s oldest civilizations. As we enter into the year of the dragon, a symbol of good fortune, it is my sincere hope for all families to be blessed with luck, happiness and good health in the year to come. Those born in the year of the dragon are said to be masters of authority and are honoured and respected. The coincidence of this is noteworthy as honour and respect are the two qualities Canada strives to exemplify in our strong relationships with China, Korea and Vietnam. On behalf of our Conservative government and from my family to yours, I wish all Canadians happiness in the year of the dragon and beyond. Gung Hei Fat Choy.
