It gives me great pleasure to stand in this House today
to congratulate a magnificent young woman from Red Bay
who has just recently been crowned the new Ms Canada
Galaxy.
Mr. Speaker, Sherrylynn Butt recently competed in
Ottawa as Newfoundland and Labrador’s representative
in the Canada Galaxy National Pageant and walked away
with the title. As winner of this competition, she will
now go on to represent Canada at the Galaxy
International Pageant being held in Orlando, Florida in
2010.
Ms Butt is originally from Red Bay but now lives and
works in St. John’s as the marketing and sales manager
for Provincial Airlines. She is also a very strong
volunteer in the community. She has represented this
Province as Miss Newfoundland and Labrador in 2003, and
won her first national title in 2006. Ms Butt won over
the judges with her personality and her confidence,
which is a major part of the competition. She will now
carry on with the responsibilities of being title holder
and immerse herself in Galaxy’s chosen charity, which
is the Sunshine Dreams for Kids. She also plans to
continue her efforts in promoting literacy.
I ask all members of this House to join with me in
congratulating Ms Sherrylynn Butt, who is a great
ambassador for Newfoundland and Labrador.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. |
