00:00:00.320 I've also heard that it would be wonderful for you to have holidays that are recognized by your
00:00:07.360 employers. I mean they are called holidays because they are holy days and we know that we recognize
00:00:11.680 many in the Christian calendar but every religion has a holy day, yours being eve, that you would
00:00:18.960 like to be able to have days off. I know that they do this in New York and in Maine and so we are
00:00:23.520 looking at how we would be able to create the legislation to allow that so that you could spend
00:00:28.000 the day with your family. We are blessed that in this province people of all faiths and creeds live
00:00:36.080 in peace as neighbors and we wish you all well and hope you enjoy peace and blessings as you
00:00:41.200 celebrate Eid this year. Thank you so much and Eid Lubarek.
