I decided to become a journalist aged fifteen after reading ā€˜1984’ and being appalled at the thought that governments could rewrite history. Orwell knew the USSR did it. Now China pretends the Tiananmen massacre didn’t happen. It did. I was there, and saw it for myself.

On 03/06/2025, all our learning centers SHUT DOWN officially. My child asked "Dad, when can I go to school again?" I have NO answer. Now they have NOTHING. I feel your pain, but please look at our children's future too 😢. #RohingyaChildren #ChildrenDeserveBetter

We all need to do more on the enduring Rohingya crisis. But the ā€œflight from global engagementā€ is indeed a global problem.

A critical issue is how global disengagement becomes infectious, how a retreat to isolation becomes a pattern, except by countries determined to increase their global reach, power and influence.

Today, Canadians mark 36 years since the violent crackdown in and around Beijing’s Tiananmen Square that killed so many unarmed and peaceful citizens. To honour the lives lost, Canada continues to call on China to uphold its human rights obligations under international law.

For a guy that distinguished himself as Canada’s first astronaut,Marc Garneau was one of the most down to earth guys you’d ever want to meet .

Arlene Arlene Perly Rae and I were deeply saddened to learn of Marc Garneau’s death. We were friends and colleagues in the years of opposition, and I had the honour to be UN Ambassador when he was Minister of Foreign Affairs. He was a decent and loyal friend and a great public servant.

When a wild fire hits by surprise the impact can be devastating. Tens of thousands displaced in western Canada as towns and communities under threat. Visited Peguis First Nation to discuss twin impacts of fires and flooding - a community determined to fight back.
