Anthony Housefather

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 155 wordsjust days after the House rose for the summer, an evil man crossed the country seeking to kill people in Montreal.¹ While brave police officers limited casualties, two wonderful men were killed.² Constable Mohamed Lamine Benredouane worked at one of our neighbourhood police stations.³ He was only 34 years old and was a devoted husband and father of a young son.⁴ He and his wife were expecting their second child.⁵ I remember him as a man who was always smiling and committed to serving the community he grew up in. Michel Moshe Mizrahi was my neighbour in Côte Saint-Luc.⁶ He was generous to a fault. A father and grandfather, Michel was deeply loved. In the midst of the shooting, he warned others of the danger and helped them find safety.⁷ Today, we remember two men, one Muslim and one Jewish, who, when faced with danger, thought of others. People are alive today because of them. Thanks · 13 wordsMay their courage never be forgotten and may their memories be a blessing.Thanks
