Canoe '22 in Dartmouth

CLAUDIA CHENDER « » : Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Canoe '22, the International Canoe Federation's Canoe Sprint and Paracanoe World Championships, taking place from August 3rd to 7th on one of the world's top courses, Lake Banook, in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.

Over that period, elite paddlers from 70 countries will compete in races. There will be a free public street festival along Prince Albert Road that will include a market, food trucks, and concerts throughout the week.

Congratulations to all of the organizers for their incredibly hard work to bring this event to fruition, and welcome to all of the athletes and coaches from around the world. I hope that everyone in this Chamber will get out to watch some world-class athletics on a world-class lake in the world-class city of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
