Official visit to British Columbia

During the official welcoming ceremony by the Province of British Columbia on March 7, 2006, the Governor General delivered an address to British Columbians and spoke of “the opportunity” she will have to “meet with gardeners and politicians, with social activists and aboriginal youth, as well as young immigrants, and also with members of the armed forces and ordinary heroes.” She also reiterated that she will “take the stories and ideas you share with me, and in turn, share them with the rest of the country.”
