Friday October 14th

Justin P.J. Trudeau Member of Parliament for Papineau

Re-Elected on May 2nd 2011 as Member of Parliament for Papineau, Justin Trudeau advances in his political career fighting for Canadian values, to bring forth a new perspective on the interactions between government and citizens, and to help Canada be a model for the world. Since arriving in Parliament, Justin has passionately advocated for greater political participation by Canada’s youth, while simultaneously arguing for more government action to help young Canadians become better prepared in a more competitive, globalized world. But more than just empowering young people, Justin pushes fellow community and political leaders to discover the importance of our youth and realize that their new ideas, opinions, and contributions are critical to Canada’s progress.

One of Justin’s major concerns, as a member of the House’s Standing Committee on the Environ-ment and Sustainable Development, is how we care for the planet that sustains us. In his years before politics he worked with various environmental groups dedicated to the protection of our Canadian wilderness, supplementing his activism with graduate work in environmental geography at McGill University. Justin believes that the Conservative doctrine of forcing a false choice between the economy and the environment is reckless and dangerous. Instead, it is increasingly obvious that a healthy economy is dependent on a healthy environment, and the two will thrive resiliently if we engage in responsible actions based on long-term thinking.

For Justin, investing in youth, diversity and the environment are the best ways to ensure our country’s long-term prosperity, and he is increasingly convinced that the Liberal Party is the best vehicle to champion these issues and to create the Canada that the world needs us to be.

Eldest son of former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre E. Trudeau, Justin Trudeau was born on De-cember 25, 1971. He is married to Sophie Grégoire; the couple welcomed their first child, Xavier James Trudeau on October 18, 2007 and more recently added to their family with the arrival of Ella-Grace Trudeau on February 5, 2009.

“Pause” Event: Ray Zahab

Ray ZahabUltra-Marathoner & Founder of impossible2Possible

On November 1, 2006 former “pack a day smoker” Ray Zahab and two other runners set out on an epic expedition to cross the Sahara Desert by foot. One hundred and eleven days and 7500 kms after leaving the coast of Senegal they completed their journey stepping into the Red Sea. The epic expedition had the trio running an average of 70km’s a day, without a single day of rest. After witnessing and experiencing the water crisis in northern Africa, Ray decided to leverage his future adventures to raising awareness and funding for causes that he supports and believes in.

In 2008, Ray founded impossible2Possible (i2P), an organization that aims to inspire and educate youth through adventure learning, and inclusion and participation in expeditions. Ray is a proud member of the board of Directors of the Ryan’s Well Foundation, is the official Athletic Ambassador and a board member of the ONExONE organization, and is a representative of SpreadTheNet. Ray was the recipient of the ONExONE Difference Award in 2007, and the Torchbearers Award in 2010. In addition to his running adventures, Ray speaks around the world at events such as TED, IOC World Conference, Idea City, The Economist World in 2010 and 2011, World Affairs Council and countless major corporate events - spreading the message that we are all capable of the extraordi-nary in our lives and that in fact, the impossible is possible.

In early 2011, Ray became the first person to run across the “driest desert on Earth”, the Atacama Desert in Chile. He ran 1200 kms in 20 days- with minimal daily re-supply and with his camping gear on his back. Thousands of students joined the journey via live web and video conferencing.

It’s not just a game to us.

We don’t want people whohave gambling problems playing our games.Here’s why:

Gambling is meant to be a fun and exciting

form of entertainment. Most people play

responsibly. They know their limit and play

within it. However, 3.4% of Ontarians experience gambling problems

that cause financial and social disruptions in their lives*. That’s when

OLG steps in to offer a range of tools and help – because an informed

player is a responsible player. We want people playing our lottery and

casino games that can do so responsibly. That’s why we provide Ontarians

with the resources to help detect problem gambling. Our Responsible

Gaming Resource Centres, found at our Slot and Casino facilities,

provide players with information about safer gambling practices and

referrals for professional help, if needed. We also educate Ontarians

about gambling facts and myths, and provide tools to help people play

within their limit via our knowyourlimit.ca website. As well, we make sure

that all OLG employees, from casino dealers and lottery representatives

to corporate staff, are trained to recognize the signs of problem

gambling. For more information on this or for any questions related

to OLG, call us at 1-800-387-0098 or visit us online at www.olg.ca.
