Thursday, May 1st, 2014: Hon. Keith Ashfield (Fredericton, CPC): Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the accomplishments of the Canadian senior mens curling team, who yesterday won a gold medal for Canada at the 2014 World Senior Curling Championships in Dumfries, Scotland. Led by skip Wayne Tallon of Fredericton, Team Canada defeated Team Sweden 7 to 2 in their gold medal match to remain unbeaten in the week long tournament. Backing Tallon were his teammates, third, Mike Kennedy of Edmundston; second, Mike Flannery of Fredericton; lead, Wade Blanchard of Saint John; alternate, Chuck Kingston; and coaches Bill Tschirhart and Jim Waite. I would also like to recognize and congratulate the Canadian senior womens curling team, who captured silver for Canada at the same tournament. On behalf of all Canadians I wish to congratulate both teams on their successes while representing our country on the world stage. Their hard work and talent help continue our tradition of excellence in sports.
