Statement by the Minister of National Defence on the Occasion of Mother's Day
(firmenpresse) - OTTAWA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 05/11/12 -- The Honourable Peter MacKay, Minister of National Defence, today issued the following statement on the occasion of Mother's Day:
"On Sunday, May 13th it is important that we take time to celebrate Mother's Day; a day set aside each year to honour and recognize motherhood, and to thank mothers for all they bring to our society and to our lives.
I would like to pay particular homage to the mothers within the ranks of the Canadian Forces, the wives and partners of CF members, and to the mothers of our CF members, past and present. We thank you for your compassion, your encouragement and your guidance, and we are blessed to have you as a part of the CF family.
To the mothers within the Canadian Forces, we are especially grateful to you for your dedication, your strength and your perseverance through the long hours of work, the training and the deployments, which separate you from your families, occasionally for many months at a time. Your commitment through these challenges is nothing short of heroic, and I know that all Canadians join me in saluting you.
To all mothers, on this day, we respect all that you do and thank you for being there for us, for your support, your strength, and for your love.
And, I would like to extend my thoughts and prayers to mothers who lost loved ones in service to our nation. We think of you often and we hold you in our hearts this Mother's Day.
I sincerely wish all mothers a wonderful Mother's Day, and thank you for brightening our every day."
