"Many young people in Canada turn to the arts to express their creativity. Their insightful outlook on the world around them deserves to be shared. This is why I invite each of them to take part in the Canada Day Challenge. In addition to enjoying a wonderful experience, they will have the chance to highlight their talent by showing what makes them proud to be Canadian with a drawing, photo or piece of creative writing. I look forward to discovering the creations and the unique vision that these young people will present to us."
