Description
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
4th Session
42nd Parliament
A
Leader
of
the
third
party,
thank
you
honorable
speaker
for
all
of
us
who
grew
up
singing
along
to
Baby,
Beluga
and
oats
and
beans
and
barley,
grow
and
then
sang
along
with
our
kids
to
Banana,
Phone
and
Down
by
the
Riverside.
We
know
that
rafi's
songs
and
rafi's
voice
bring
immediate
and
Lasting
Joy.
If
there's
one
person
who
has
taught
us
to
love
and
honor
children,
it's
Rafi
and
it's
not
just
through
his
music.
A
He
reminds
me
to
tap
into
the
joy
of
childhood
that
still
sits
in
my
core
and
he
shows
in
his
Essence
what
it
means
to
honor,
not
only
children,
but
all
people
and
living
things
in
our
world
and
I
can
confirm
that
what
Rafi
sings
is
true.
All
we
really
need
is
a
song
in
our
hearts
food
in
our
bellies
and
love
in
our
families.
Thank
you.
