00:00:29a honorary black belt.
00:00:32Now, Madam Mayor, to receive this honor, it is necessary that you demonstrate a truly
00:00:40directed look.
00:00:42And this will be performed with your instructor, Gloria Wiltshire, the former eight times
00:00:48Canadian champion.
00:01:02Get ready.

00:02:45Happy birthday to the mayor.
00:02:47Gonna find a happy birthday to you.
00:03:18Happy birthday.
00:03:20Gonna find it.
00:03:27Merci, everyone.
00:03:29I appreciate the warm welcome.
00:03:31Thank you very much, Alan.
00:03:33Good afternoon to all of you.
00:03:35Let me start by offering you greetings in the mother languages of the Treaty 7 Indigenous
00:03:39peoples.
00:03:41These greetings reflect our shared commitment to respect, to inclusion, and the strength
00:03:49of community.
00:03:51And these are the very values that Judo embodies.
00:03:53To the athletes, the coaches, the families, and the fans who have traveled from across
00:03:57Canada, welcome to Calgary.
00:03:59It is an absolute honor for us to host the National Open Judo League.
00:04:05For the next three years, Calgary has always stepped up to host world-class events.
00:04:11Everything from the 2023 Pan American and Oceania Championships to now welcoming the
00:04:17very best of Canadian Judo back right here at the Olympic Oval.
00:04:23And that stands as proof that this oval and this city are built for sport.
00:04:27Not just on ice, but also on the mats.
00:04:29And Judo teaches us all something very special.
00:04:33And very powerful.
00:04:35The idea that true progress happens when people uplift each other.
00:04:39Even when we're in competition, we lift each other up.
00:04:43And that grounding in compassion and in discipline respects what Judo is all about.
00:04:49To the local organizing committee, congratulations on this event, and thank you so much for bringing
00:04:55this to Calgary.
00:04:57Your dedication and your commitment were the key to Calgary being chosen as the host city.
00:05:01To Tourism Calgary, thank you for always making our city shine.
00:05:05And to the athletes that are about to compete, please know that we already think you are
00:05:11champions.
00:05:13You are champions in the eyes of those who admire your discipline, your strength, and
00:05:17your respect for the sport.
00:05:19On behalf of everyone here in Calgary, I wish you a safe, respectful, and exciting competition.
00:05:25Thank you. Merci.
00:05:31L'AMRS de Calgary vous souhaite la bienvenue.
00:05:35En grâce à Claude Hubert et Ronald Judo, ils souhaitent que tous les participants aient
00:05:41bien du plaisir et vous revoir pour les deux prochaines années à Calgary.
00:05:45Merci Madame l'AMRS.

00:05:49Et maintenant, laissez-moi vous introduire Alisha Reynolds.
00:05:59Miss Alisha Reynolds, le Tourisme Calgary, un partenaire très important, and very important
00:06:05partner in this event.
00:06:09Hi everybody.
00:06:11Bonjour.
00:06:13We're so glad that you're here.
00:06:17Thank you so much for being here and welcome to Blue Sky City.
00:06:21I first want to extend our gratitude to Nicholas Gill and Patrick Esparbay and the Judo Canada
00:06:27team for bringing the tournament out west and choosing Calgary to host this tournament
00:06:33for the next three years.
00:06:37Alors, ils sont très heureux de vous accueillir ici à Calgary pour les trois prochaines années
00:06:43et remercient énormément le comité organisateur de ce tournoi.
00:06:49As the official destination management organization for the City of Calgary, it is our role to
00:06:57work with supporting organizations like Judo Canada to bring these world-class events to
00:07:03and to host all of you with our legendary hospitality and community spirit.
00:07:09Pour eux, c'est important de travailler en étroite collaboration avec les fédérations
00:07:13nationales telles que Judo Canada et ils sont très heureux de pouvoir le faire depuis
00:07:19de nombreuses années et espèrent le faire encore plusieurs fois.
00:07:23But we can't do this work without passionate community members behind these initiatives
00:07:29who champion our bid to host.
00:07:31We are so proud to have an amazing local Judo community in Calgary and a dedicated local
00:07:37organizing committee led by Alan Satin.
00:07:41The collective commitment to Judo they foster is the reason you are all here and the reason
00:07:47we get to celebrate you in Calgary.
00:07:51Tout ceci, il n'est pas possible sans un comité organisateur, vous le savez très bien.
00:07:57Alors, ils sont très heureux de travailler et de collaborer avec ce comité et aussi
00:08:03de travailler avec le président de ce comité, monsieur Satin.
00:08:07I'd also like to acknowledge Leslie Plumley of LP Events who has been working alongside
00:08:13Judo Canada and the local organizing committee to make this event the tremendous success
00:08:19that it is sure to be.
00:08:21Ils sont très heureux aussi de travailler et nous aussi avec une partenaire très importante

00:08:31Calgary truly is a sports city.
00:08:35We have a long, robust sports legacy and history.
00:08:39And hosting an event like this is not just about the visibility that Calgary gets from
00:08:45an event like this as a top tier hosting destination.
00:08:49It's about expressing our values and inspiring youth.
00:08:53This event will also create upwards of $4 million in economic impact, inviting people
00:08:59to experience hotels, attractions, restaurants and all of the amenities that our beautiful
00:09:05city has to offer.
00:09:07Pour eux, il est très important non seulement de recevoir les événements sportifs, mais
00:09:11aussi d'embrasser les valeurs du sport.
00:09:15Je suis très heureux qu'il soit ici présent parce que ça représente un retombé économique
00:09:21pour la ville de Calgary.
00:09:23I'd like to close by saying a tremendous thank you to all of you, the thousand athletes
00:09:29and coaches who have worked so hard at your sport throughout your life, the early mornings,
00:09:35the late nights, the evenings, the weekends.
00:09:39You are so talented and it's an honor to have you share that talent with us here in Calgary.
00:09:59So lastly, in addition to this wonderful competition, I hope you'll get out and explore Calgary.

00:10:07Calgary Zoo, Telespark, Science Center, Heritage Park.
00:10:11We've got the National Music Center, which Calgary is fortunate to be home to.
00:10:15And on the Stampede grounds, a new experience at the Sound Center where you can experience
00:10:21the liveliness of the Calgary Stampede year round.
00:10:25And I will give a shout out because it's May long weekend.
00:10:27I think this is the entry to summer.
