The children, youth and young people of Canada have, by far, been the most neglected part of our country’s population over the last year and a half of pandemic emergency.
They have suffered through compromised schooling to no schooling at all, limited to no extracurricular activities, limited to no sports (and especially no team sports), limited to no music, restrictions on socializing, play and, in the end, on dreaming, planning and preparing their futures.
No longer!
Canada is still the best place in the world to be a child and young person. Let’s show everyone that it is exactly so. And that the young are the future of Canada.
