In celebration of Canadian Multiculturalism Day, it is my pleasure to congratulate the organizers of the second annual Cultural Expressions Festival.

New Brunswick is a diverse province, home to many vibrant cultural communities. Fredericton Cultural Extravaganza 2010 will showcase the many contributions of these cultural communities and the benefits they bring through performances, exhibits and demonstrations, educational information and hands-on activities.

The event will provide an excellent opportunity for New Brunswickers of all backgrounds to learn more about the rich diversity of their neighbours and their neighbourhoods.

I want to extend my sincere congratulations to everyone who worked to see the festival become a reality. These individuals have contributed to the growth and enrichment of their community and region.

Thank you and enjoy the festival.
