Gung Hay Fat Choy. Laureen and I would like to offer our warmest greetings to all Canadians celebrating the Chinese New Year. The arrival of the year of the sheep is a special time; a time of family, fellowship and the giving of gifts. It’s also an opportunity to reflect on the achievements of the past year and above all, a time to look forward with optimism, to peace, prosperity and success in the year to come.

I congratulate all Chinese Canadians on the remarkable role you have played and continue to play in our country’s heritage and development. Your abilities, energy and initiative have helped build Canada and whatever our roots, wherever we come from, Canada is a country we share and we can all be proud of. May you have a healthy, happy and prosperous year of the sheep.
