nous avons célébré la diversité du Canada et renouvelé notre engagement envers l’inclusion, le sentiment d’appartenance et l’équité. Fière de me tenir aux côtés de leaders qui travaillent à bâtir un avenir plus juste et inclusif.
Honorée de me joindre au “Leading Ladies Canada” au Blu Legacy, à Ottawa, à l’occasion du Mois de l’histoire des Noirs. Aux côtés de mes collègues du Sénat, Senateur Ince et Sénatrice Clément,
Honoured to join Leading Ladies Canada at Blu Legacy in Ottawa for black history month. Alongside my senate colleagues Senators Ince and @senclement.bsky.social , we celebrated Canada’s diversity and renewed our commitment to inclusion, belonging, and equity.
You can watch all the action here - stream it in real time, or later, at your leisure. I grant you, this is not exactly as exciting as an episode of Heated Rivalry or today's Bridgerton drop. But for privacy and civil liberty nerds? Pour the tea. senparlvu.parl.gc.ca/Harmony/en/P...

On Wednesday, my friend and colleague @senclement.bsky.social moved the excise the entire section dealing with party personal privacy protection. Then we could pass the tax relief, and let the government craft a better voter privacy protection system. Today, we'll debate Senatrice Clement's motion.
🔎 Une analyse est citée ici : 👉🏾 « Les femmes sont également bien représentées dans les fonctions de leadership au Sénat : la présidence du Sénat est assurée par une femme, l’honorable Raymonde Gagné, et un peu moins de 70 % des fonctions de leadership au Sénat sont exercées par des femmes. »
Le legs durable de Justin Trudeau : un Sénat féminin
Depuis son arrivée au pouvoir, le premier ministre Mark Carney s’est évertué à prendre ses distances de son prédécesseur à la tête du Parti libéral du Canada.

Today, I was honoured to co-host a National Child Day breakfast at the Senate with Senators Clement, Pate, Martin, M. Deacon, Senior, McBean and Osler. Bringing young advocates from across the country together filled me with hope as we continue working toward a future where every child can thrive.

Patrimoine canadien consacre moins d'argent à la revitalisation des langues autochtones cette année, alors que la quasi-totalité d'entre elles sont menacées d'extinction. Comment le gouvernement défend-il ses choix ? (1)
Canadian Heritage is spending less this year on the revitalization of Indigenous languages – while nearly all of them face extinction. How does the government defend its choices? I asked Steven Guilbeault, the Minister of Canadian Identity. Read the exchange here 👇🏾: sencanada.ca/en/senators/...
I am deeply saddened by the passing of the Honourable Donald Oliver, a trailblazer in Canadian history. As the first Black man appointed to the Senate, his legacy of service, justice, and representation will never be forgotten. Read the full joint statement from the African Canadian Senate Group.
Rest in power, Lee. Your time with us was too short, but please know that this world is better for you having been in it. Que ton héritage perdure, Lee. Ton temps parmi nous a été trop court, mais sache que le monde est meilleur grâce à ta présence.
