Promoting fairness and recognizing leadership
In Montreal, Pete Buttigeig US Transportation Secretary and first openly gay US Presidential candidate received the Laurent McCutcheon Award from the Fondation Emergence. The award is given to leaders who have made significant contributions against homophobia and transphobia. The Secretary spoke of how touched he was and congratulated Quebec and Canada's leadership in the area of human rights and LGBTQ community.
As a Canadian working for an American multinational, GE VERNOVA, it was a proud moment to witness this leadership recognition and the expression of appreciation for values that are important to society in both countries. It demonstrates that there is more to keep us working together in so many areas for humanity and sustainability. Merci a la Fondation Emergence, Merci Michel Belval President of the Quebec AMCHAM and the great team at the Montreal Consul General , Ana Escogrima. #TEAM USA and for CANADA
