Mother's Day 2022 is here and Canadians are showing some serious love for the wonderful people in their lives.
Sunday, May 8, is always a wonderful time of the year to take a few seconds to let your mom, or a mother-figure in your life, know how important they are to you. And, some celebs even take the time to shout out the special people in their life on social media.
From funny to heartwarming, here are what Canadian celebrities are saying about Mother's Day!
Bianca Andreescu
In a statement to Narcity Canada, iconic athlete Bianca Andreescu shared what her mom means to her.
"She has given me the world. She has shown me what unconditional love is. She has shown me what hard work and having faith can get you. She has shown me what true physical, spiritual, mental and emotional strength is," she said.
"But most importantly she gave me the chance to be who I am. If I can become even half of who she is, I will be happy. I love you mom."
Justin Bieber
The Biebs posted a sweet throwback photo features two of his favourite things: his mother and hockey.

Jagmeet Singh

"Gurkiran means ray of light from the universal energy and I can’t think of a more fitting name for Gurkiran Kaur," he said.
"She lights up the room with her presence and lifts the mood of everyone around her (especially our daughter Anhad, which means limitless)."
"Gurkiran you are an incredible mother, a ray of light from the universe to nurture our limitless daughter with all the love and support she will ever need."
Sandra Oh
In honour of the big day, Jimmy Kimmel asked celebrities to read "some of the most delightful texts they’ve received from the women who brought them into this world" and Sandra Oh shared the most "mom" message ever.
"Hi Sandy. I was rearranging the Valentine flowers today thinking you always send me so many flowers," her mom wrote to her. "The florist must shove so many different flowers in a limited size vase."
"I am happy at receiving just few flowers with your love Sandy. Next time when you want to send me flowers please half size."
Justin Trudeau
The prime minister took to Insta to share some sweet words for both Sophie Grégoire Trudeau and Margaret Trudeau.

Celine Dion
Celine Dion shared a message about the ongoing situation in Ukraine on her Instagram.
"This Mother’s Day, I feel very fortunate to be able to be with my children, and I think about mothers in Ukraine and around the world who have lost their children… and for those mothers who constantly worry about how to keep their children safe... and for those mothers who devote every ounce of their energy just to provide their children with the bare necessities of life.
"These mothers truly are the courageous ones, and I dedicate this Mother’s Day to all of them. We pray that they will find peace and comfort for their families. ❤- Celine xx…"
