Bravo !
Dear Councilor Harout Chitilian,
Allow me first to present my belated congratulations for your election as a Councilor in the city of Montreal.
By the same token, I forward these same congrats to your proud parents. I now visualize my late cousin "Artine" looking proudly onto his grandson.
Finally, I wish you a successful career.
Best regards.
Gabriel Giraco
