杜魯多總理春節賀詞
賈斯廷·杜魯多(Justin Trudeau)總理今天發表如下聲明慶祝華人農曆新年,亦稱春節:
“今天,加拿大和世界各地的華人社區慶祝春節的開始,喜迎虎年的來臨。
“春節是回顧過往一年的挑戰及成功,以樂觀、喜悅和希望憧憬未來的時候。傳統上,家人和朋友們將歡聚一堂,以團圓飯、煙花爆竹和傳統的舞獅等喜慶迎新。雖然今年的慶祝活動方式將再一次有所不同,我們依然在繼續遵循公共衛生指引以確保每個人的安全,但我們所有人都可以從虎年所象徵的勇敢、堅韌和力量中找到靈感。自 COVID-19 疫情大流行開始以來,這些價值觀一直在引領加拿大人度過這段艱難時期,而且我知道,虎年的這些品性將繼續激勵我們前行的歷程。
“春節也是我們所有人認識華裔加拿大人為我們國家已經做出並繼續做出的諸多貢獻,並更多地了解他們豐富的文化、習俗和傳統的一個機會。加拿大的多元化是我們的力量,同舟共濟,我們將繼續共同打造一個更美好、更公平且更包容的國家。
“蘇菲和我代表我們的家人共同祝愿所有慶祝虎年的人們健康、幸福和吉祥。
“新年快樂! Xīn Nián Kuài Lè! Sun Nin Fai Lok!”
Statement by the Prime Minister on Chinese New Year
The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival:
“Today, Chinese communities in Canada and around the world will celebrate the start of the Spring Festival and welcome the Year of the Tiger.
“Chinese New Year is a time to reflect on the challenges and successes of the past year and look to the future with optimism, joy, and hope. Traditionally, families and friends come together to celebrate new beginnings with family meals, fireworks, and the traditional lion dance. While festivities will look different again this year, as we continue to follow public health guidelines to ensure everyone’s safety, we can all find inspiration in the bravery, resilience, and strength the tiger symbolizes. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, these are values that have guided Canadians through difficult times, and I know they will keep inspiring us as we move forward.
“The Spring Festival is also an opportunity for all of us to recognize the many contributions that Canadians of Chinese descent have made – and continue to make – to our country, and to learn more about their rich cultures, customs, and traditions. Canada’s diversity is our strength, and together we will continue to build a better, fairer, and more inclusive country.
“On behalf of our family, Sophie and I wish health, happiness, and good fortune to everyone celebrating the Year of the Tiger.
“新年快樂! Xīn Nián Kuài Lè! Sun Nin Fai Lok!”
