    QUEBEC'S NATIONAL ASSEMBLY COMMEMORATE'S ARMENIAN GENOCIDE

    Montreal, QC - The National Assembly of Quebec commemorated the 89th
    anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in the presence of his Eminence
    Archbishop Khajag Hagopian, Prelate of the Prelacy of Canada as well as a
    delegation from the Armenian National Committee of Quebec. Through a motion
    that was unanimously accepted by all parties, parliamentarians paid tribute
    to the 1.5 million victims of the Genocide and the resulting impact of the
    survivors as well as their progeny.
    It is noteworthy that the National Assembly of Quebec has commemorated the
    Armenian Genocide since 1980 and in November 2003 it became a member of the
    family of legislative assemblies that has passed a law designating April
    24th as a day of commemoration for the Armenian Genocide.
    The Armenian National Committee of Quebec is a grassroots organization
    representing the interests of the Armenian Community in Quebec.
