I believe one of the great challenges of our time is to imagine a country where everyone is valued and made to feel that they belong. Our future relies on your leadership, and your vision for Canada for all,” recited Gareau. Gareau also recited
the message on behalf of Gordon Wyant, director of education. “Earning your Grade 12 diploma is an impressive accomplishment that takes initiative and hard work. Education is the foundation for success and today will be only the first of many rewarding moments you will have.
