75TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ROTARY CLUB MONTREAL – WESTWARD

Marc Garneau  PC MP CC CD FCASI  - Member of Parliment for Notre-Dame-de-Grace-Westmount

 
 

On January 23, 2015  Marc celebrated the 75th anniversary of the Rotary Club Montreal – Westward.

Marc was warmly received as the guest of honour. Other guests included Montreal-West Mayor Benny Massala and Russell Copeman, Montreal City Councillor and the borough mayor for Côte-des-Neiges-Notre-Dame-de-Grace.

Rotary clubs all over the world sponsor efforts at volunteerism and improving the lives of people in their communities. The Montreal – Westward club is a part of a worldwide network of 1.2 million people continuing an over 100 year tradition of communities helping their neighbors.

In keeping with their non-partisan tradition Marc talked about his public service outside of parliament, earth bound and otherwise. He commended members of the Rotary Club for their civic-minded contributions to the community.

The audience got a special treat as Marc described his preparation for space flight and the experience of being in outer space itself.
