"...while all children are born equal, they don't all have the same opportunities to flourish. This is as true for children here as it is for children in the third world... Nothing in today's society is more disgraceful than the marginalization of some young people who are driven to isolation and despair. We must not tolerate such disparities."
-Her Excellency the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, Governor General, September 27, 2005
