“I want to congratulate the Montreal Victoire on winning the Walter Cup. They are the first Canadian team to win the women's professional hockey championship, and they are great role models for young girls.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, I can hardly contain my excitement over the Montreal Victoire winning their very first Walter Cup. Our champions defeated the Ottawa Charge by a score of 4 to 0. This is the first time in the short history of the Professional Women’s Hockey League that the cup has been won by a team north of the U.S. border. All Quebeckers are celebrating alongside our captain, the GOAT and playoff MVP Marie‑Philip Poulin, and Laura Stacey. All Quebeckers were on the edge of their seats, cheering on Ann-Renée Desbiens for her shutout and Catherine Dubois, Alexandra Labelle and Erin Ambrose for their hard work. All Quebeckers jumped for joy when Abby Roque scored two goals. Fortunately, the story does not end here. We will have another chance to applaud Danièle Sauvageau’s team during Saturday’s victory parade for the Victoire in Montreal. The victorious Victoire. Is there a finer or more natural role model for all those young girls who dream of taking to the ice themselves? I want to thank the team for their dedication to their sport. Well done. Long live the Victoire.
