[Applause] [Applause] [Applause] Yeah all [Laughter] right [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] So we’re on E doans and we just biked across a heroing bridge with a sidewalk about this narrow um and we were not looking forward to the 10% grade coming up onto the island and then there was construction and it was too narrow for us to go through and the construction

Guy who only spoke French stopped us because us like wait there said he’s going to un and so we waited for about 5 minutes and this guy drives down in the minivan and picks us and our bikes up and drives us up here so that was actually easier than biking up it one

Other thing I wanted to say this would never happen in Ontario the fact that Quebec is like yeah people cycle onto this island all the time and if it’s not safe we’re going to provide another way for them to get into town that’s Amazing [Applause] free me from the prison that I call myself P me from the confin of my timy sh love I left behind me heart I put to rest it’s still troubled sailing in an empty [Applause] chest would you take my hand and start again Again don’t have to show me what a full I’ve been walk a mile in my shoes and I’ll start listening AR we we starting over or we tearing down these walls that we’ve built cuz I can say I’m around I can say I’m [Applause] sorry start again start again and take it step by step till we find our way Again the p is full of mistakes but we’re not the kids that we were those younger days was Younger [Applause] Again and start Again
