Sorry to all that we decided to postpone the planned party for last night. We hope to have a date picked to enjoy that lovely home and generous offer before too long. (Will keep you posted!) Continue reading One Clear Voice (June 30, 2024)
Good Sunday Morning!
And first a belated shout out to Fathers as last week’s letter landed on Father’s Day and I forgot to mention it! Although Cate and I did make a Father’s Day Eggs Benny brunch for the family crowd at last weekend’s cottage escape—four dads among those present. By Monday I was back in Parliament with a press conference with fellow Green MP Mike Morrice to mark the 5th anniversary of the Parliamentary vote that Canada is in a climate emergency.

Good Sunday Morning!
This Sunday finds me on a family weekend- first full weekend OFF since Mother’s Day. And this is another version of Mother’s Day being my family celebration for my 70th birthday!

It is on the Gatineau River in deep Carolinian forest, outside Chelsea Quebec. Continue reading The report on foreign influence and interference (June 16, 2024)

Today is a day in transit, leaving Edmonton on an early flight to Toronto and switching to VIA Rail from Toronto back to Ottawa for Parliament on Monday.

Good Sunday Morning!!
And to start your day, some wonderful, even miraculous, news! Freddy Mwenengabo has been freed from his kidnappers and last night made it home to Fredericton! We knew last week he had been released, but the family asked us to keep it quiet until he was safely home. Thanks for your prayers, thanks to David Coon, NB Green leader, for fighting so hard and thanks to Global Affairs Minister Melanie Joly and parliamentary secretary Pam Damoff. Such a harrowing tale. If only all hostages and prisoners from the horrific Hamas-Israel conflict could also be safely home and soon. Continue reading Fight For Our Fish (June 2, 2024)
