Thank you so much @Mister_Regina for all the work you have done to phase out elephant captivity and for protecting great apes. This is a Bill that has been long awaited by many.

Members of our Young Canadians Parliament were honoured to join a special #NationalChildDay event in the @SenateCA to promote the rights of 8 million children & youth in 🇨🇦 Thanks @SenMoodie @KPateontheHill @JennaSudds & Senators Marin, Greenwood & Burey for hosting them!

Senator Judy White has established herself as a formidable defender of human rights and has rightfully been described as an inspiration to women and Indigenous people. We are delighted to have her voice within the @Prog_Senate. Welcome!
#GGSimon shares the following message with Canadians regarding the devastating wildfires in the Northwest Territories.
Why Women’s Wrongful Convictions Are So Difficult to Overcome - yet more evidence that we need processes to review the ways systemic discrimination result in miscarriages of justice & wrongful convictions of women, especially Indigenous women! #cdnpoli theappeal.org/womens-wrongfu…

I had the absolute honour of going to Selma, Alabama to learn from the freedom fighters of the civil rights movement- both past & present. I was so disappointed to learn the State of Alabama is not doing its part to keep up this national heritage site. Do Better @GovenorKayIvey
#DYK August 1 is Emancipation Day, the anniversary of the abolition of slavery in the British Empire (including Canada). Yesterday I attended an event hosted by the Black Cultural Society of PEI in Charlottetown. Wela'lin for your efforts, contributions and leadership!
@SenatorWanda on Emancipation Day (and her birthday) in Province House with the Lieutenant Governor for Nova Scotia, Arthur Leblanc and his wife Patricia. African Nova Scotian Affairs @Ansa thank you for having us to mark this important day.
Between 1629 and 1834, more than 4,000 people of African descent were enslaved in colonial Canada. They were exploited for their labour, and subjected to physical, sexual, psychological, and reproductive violence. In August we celebrate #EmancipationMonth across Toronto. #CABRTO
On #EmancipationDay, we acknowledge the history of slavery in Canada and commit to building a truly inclusive country by leading with understanding and respect for every Canadian.
Many may not know that slavery was legal and #Canada participated in it. Yes; Canada enslaved people on this land. Many of the racist practices that we have today stem from the dehumanization of Black people that justified slave trade. August 1, 2023: #EmancipationDayInCanada ⤵️

Congratulations to 2 wonderful people @L_MacAulay and Frances. You are an amazing team and best wishes to you both.
35 years ago today, I was first elected to represent the people of Cardigan. It continues to be the honour of a lifetime, and I could not do it without the support of my wife Frances and our family.
I found a paper I wrote in 2016 and quoted @SenatorWanda “as an African Nova Scotian woman, I know that I am standing on the shoulders of others who’ve gone before me. I am standing on the shoulders of people from my community that never dreamt of these kinds of opportunities.”
This quote was meaningful then, and 7 years later reading this paper it is even more impactful as I move into my role as mentee and supervisor. We must keep uplifting each other, paving the way for others and holding each other up. Thank you @SenatorWanda for your inspiration.
@SenatorWanda I’ve accomplished so many things that younger me would have never envisioned. I am blessed and so forever thankful. #TrustGodsPlans

As a parent, I plead with those who think they are protecting children: Erasing LGBTQ2SAI+ people from our curriculum will not change your child’s identity, but it will make schools less safe. To all young people I say: You have rights and you matter. I stand with you with pride.
Denying the very existence of trans and gender diverse people—including calls to erase trans and LGBTQ2SAI+ people from our province’s curricula—is hate, and hate should have no place in our community or in our schools.
As BC's Human Rights Commissioner, I am disturbed by news of hate fueled marches planned for Sept. 20. Peaceful demonstration is an important tool to protect democracy and generate debate. But I want to be very clear: the human rights of LGBTQ2SAI+ people are not up for debate.
I was on my way home last night & bumped into a former student that I taught in a research methods course almost 10 years ago. He said thank you for supporting me I am coming from my first research class in my masters program at U of T. I made it! Full circle moment! #whyiteach
