“That makes me happy. These young people are doing well. The government should support robotics programs.”

Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize five extraordinary young Edmontonians who are proudly representing Alberta and Canada on the world stage. Team Gladius from the River City Robotics club competed in the FIRST Tech Challenge, where students design, build and program their own robots from the ground up. In just their second season, these students engineered an award-winning robot and won the Inspire Award, which is the competition's highest award. That victory carried them to the FIRST world championships in Houston as one of only 14 teams from Canada competing, and they did not go to just watch. They won multiple matches against the very best teams in the world, which are much older and much more experienced teams. Sam, Jack, Luke, Tavin and Walter, along with their coaches, Kevin, Shawn and Angela, are exactly the innovators our future needs. Congratulations to Team Gladius. They have made Edmonton, Alberta and Canada proud.
