"I wish to offer my congratulation to the recipients of this year’s Anti-Crime Association Distinction Awards! In my travels, I have had the opportunity to see youth making a difference in their communities, making them safer and healthier spaces in which to work play and learn. The effects of their voluntary actions create a ripple effect out into broader society, changing the way we look at ourselves and how we view peace and safety in our everyday lives. Each of your anti-crime initiatives, whether geared at curbing the theft of personal property or protecting your fellow students, has fostered in your respective school communities a stronger sense of well-being and mutual respect. I applaud your efforts and urge you to continue with your exemplary work in making your schools, your homes and this country as a whole, a better place to live."
Her Excellency the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, C.C., C.M.M., C.O.M., C.D.
Past Governor General and Commander-in-Chief of Canada
