This Member’s Statement was presented by Yvonne Jones in the House of Assembly on May 20, 2009
MR. SPEAKER:
The hon. the Member for the District of Cartwright-L'Anse au Clair
MS. JONES:

 

A week ago I stood in the House to congratulate Jamiee Thomas of L’Anse au Clair who was representing this Province at the national 2009 Karaoke Star Junior competition. Well today, Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate her on becoming Canada’s first Karaoke Star Junior as well.

 Mr. Speaker, this first-ever competition hosted by YTV and CMT featured in its finale ten youth from across the country, and I am proud to say that Ms Jamiee Thomas from this Province and from the District of Cartwright-L’Anse au Clair not only took centre stage but also took first place overall.

This outstanding youth from L’Anse au Clair has done a tremendous job in taking her talents to a national level and coming out on top. Jamiee has been a remarkable promoter of Newfoundland and Labrador and is a great ambassador for our young people, inspiring them to follow their dreams and to embrace the challenges along the way because, in the end, the success makes it all worthwhile.

I ask my colleagues in the House of Assembly today to join with me in congratulating Ms Jamiee Thomas of L’Anse au Clair on becoming Canada’s first Karaoke Star Junior and to thank all her supporters from across the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
