Wangari Maathai was the first female professor in Kenya and the first African woman to be awarded the #NobelPeacePrize. She founded the Green Belt Movement, which led to the planting of millions of trees. Today we announce the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.

The Pride Caucus gives the 2SLGBTQIA+ community a voice in Parliament. Happy to connect with colleagues at our Pride Caucus meeting — thoughtful discussions, shared experiences, and a reminder that dialogue remains at the heart of real progress.

Thank a teacher and give them the respect they deserve.

A message from a Kindergarten teacher: After forty years in the classroom, my career ended with one small sentence from a six-year-old: “My dad says people like you don’t matter anymore.” No sneer. No malice. Just quiet honesty — the kind that cuts deeper because it’s…



This past week, I had the opportunity to make a statement in the Senate of Canada recognizing 2SLGBTQI+ History Month and reiterating the parliamentary Pride Caucus commitment to supporting and defending the human rights of 2SLGBTQI+ youth in Canada.

Yesterday the minister said class sizes don't impact students and all the research says it doesn't matter. I'd like to draw your (and his) attention to these studies that show how smaller class sizes impact learning:

Sign the petition and say no to public funding for private schools. We need to invest in public education that is free and accessible to everyone.


Good to see the Justice Minister stand up in defence of the Charter, which is the heart and lifeblood of Canada’s inclusive democracy.

A Markham man was beaten - his skull broken and eye sockets smashed because of hate. My heart is broken for his family, but the words of politicians are not enough. The gov’t must take clear and immediate action to stop the rise of Islamophobia and other forms of hate in Canada


Yesterday, during our Senate Question Period, I asked the Hon. Stephanie McLean, Secretary of State (Seniors), how the federal government is supporting 2SLGBTQI+ seniors so they don’t have to go back in the closet as they age and seek care.


It’s time for our own Made In Canada domestic Trusted Traveller program. We can no longer expect the U.S. & NEXUS to respect our laws, safety, and security. Thank you to Senator Simons for this inquiry. See my statement in today’s sitting of @SenateCA m.youtube.com/watch?v=ee1NSv…

👏 @Rob_Oliphant for sponsoring this Petition that opened for signatures today, calling on the Government of Canada to strengthen protections for LGBTQ+ people worldwide and reaffirm Canada’s role as a safe haven ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/P… @KristopherWells


Dirty politics should tell you who to vote for. Let’s support the best of Edmonton. Not the worst.

Like it or not, third-party advertisers are part of the civic election conversation, and they can pretty much say whatever without consequence. This one from conservative-aligned Edmonton Forward, is an attack ad on Andrew Knack that is highly misleading. #yeg #yegelxn 1/2

Time to put the public back in public schools. Funding charter and private schools starves the public education system and weakens our democracy.

Lavish private-school funding infuriates teachers, spooks government. They wanted to spank Evan Li because he dared mention it. Column. calgaryherald.com/opinion/column… #abed #ableg #yyc #yeg #apoli #cdnpoli
