Honoured to receive the @cityofcalgary Award for Community Achievement - Youth. Thank you to City Council, Mayor Farkas, and everyone involved.ACCEPTANCE SPEECH:In 1998, Korean president and soon-to-be Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Kim Dae Jung, enacted the SUNSHINE policy towards North Korea.He believed that neither passivity nor withdrawal is productive. The answer is intentional, almost-overflowing compassionate engagement. The Sun shines not out of an expectation for reciprocity, not out of any obligation, but out of abundance.As youth face ever-increasing civic apathy, we must be the same. Our amazing public education system taught me that I could do anything. In my actions, there is no ifs, woulds, shoulds; It just is, and we just are.The next generation shows up everyday for Calgary. As the first nations and pioneers of our prairie of opportunity did. Nothing is guaranteed, and there is everything to initiate. We're not inheriting a city tomorrow, we are carrying this city forward today.But "Forward" is not just a direction for us to dream of. It is a road to what comes after that we must build. Thank you to all who have walked along this road with me.After tonight, once you begin to notice less youth volunteering for more adult-led institutions, and rather advancing Calgary's diverse communities with our own youth-driven contributions, know this:Youth stopped asking for a seat at the table, because we're building a longer one.We live in the Sunniest major city in Canada.Everybody wants to know what would happen if youth in Calgary lost hope in a BRIGHTER future.I guess we'll never know.~~~
