Canada-Latvia Parliamentary Friendship Group met to discuss supporting mutual priorites. With so many @CanadianForces deployed to 🇱🇻 as part of NATO deterrence efforts we thank @LV_Canada for these strong bilateral ties #MNBLVA#StrongerTogether
Fantastic chat with Mrs. Ward’s Gr 5s @ALorneCassidy today! We dove deep into the importance of the Senate in democracies. Their questions and knowledge were impressive. Teaching young Canadians how government works is essential, and I feel lucky to have met such a great group.
The Afghan Women Parliamentarians & Leaders’ Network’s “Echoes of Courage” campaign aligns with the UN’s #16DaysOfActivism (Nov 25 - Dec 10).
We must condemn the Taliban’s ‘gender apartheid’ and raise Afghan women's voices in peacebuilding.

(1/2) Welcomed @LV_Canada & @CJOC_COIC in the Senate for a statement on Canadian-led @NATOMNBLatvia & #ExREWA. Russia’s territorial goals extend beyond Ukraine & our firm stance with NATO, engagement in Latvia, and support to Ukraine are critical. @wellsdavid@CanadianForces
🇨🇦🇺🇦 In Halifax, during the International Security Forum, I met with Canadian senators.
I expressed gratitude to Canada for its unwavering support for Ukraine during these challenging times, including military, financial, humanitarian, and political assistance, as well as for its leadership on many issues and active stance on the international stage.
We discussed several important topics, including further defense assistance and the provision of weapons to Ukraine that would help deter the aggressor and shift the situation on the frontlines. The discussion also focused on strengthening sanctions pressure on russia, as well as support for the #FormulaForPeace and the Victory Plan proposed by @ZelenskyyUa.
I emphasized that Canada’s G7 presidency next year presents an opportunity for strong and coordinated joint actions. I expressed hope for continued solidarity at the parliamentary level and the adoption of legislative initiatives in support of Ukraine.
I'm truly touched to receive the King Charles III Coronation Medal and the flag that flew over the Senate Building on the 1st anniversary of my swearing-in.
Can you believe it's almost been two years since I became a Senator? I cherish the joy of serving Canadians every day
Did you know veterans in Canada are more than twice as likely to experience homelessness as the general population?
During a recent visit to @VetsHouseCan in Ottawa, senators witnessed the benefits of supportive housing and learned about effective approaches to reducing homelessness among veterans.

And while we celebrated the independence of one nation, we also acknowledge that it has been 1000 days today since Russia’s brutal, illegal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.
Poland, Estonia, and Latvia visit including Exercise RESOLUTE WARRIOR 2024 in Latvia. The Exercise highlights the Canadian-led Multinational Brigade's determined work to deter further Russian aggression.
