Work of Sen. Joan Fraser, Josh Freed, Martin Murphy, Joshua Arless to be celebrated
MONTREAL, Oct. 8, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - Their fields of accomplishment vary widely, but four champions of Quebec's English-speaking community being formally honoured with Community Leadership Awards by the Quebec Community Groups Network share important qualities in equal amounts: dedication and persistence.
Senator and longtime journalist Joan Fraser, commentator and humourist Josh Freed, and community advocate Martin Murphy have won QCGN's 11th annual Sheila and Victor Goldbloom Community Service Award. Joshua Arless, a barrier-breaking school commissioner, has been chosen for the fifth annual Young Quebecers Leading the Way Award.
"Each leader chosen has in their own way added to the vitality of English-speaking Quebec in an exemplary fashion," QCGN President Geoffrey Chambers said. "Each has taken an inspirational path that has helped advance our collective cause and move us toward the greater good."
