My #autistic son has a PT job & today he also worked on the #Brampton Election as a Greeter. This position pays $240. Unfortunately, he only gets to keep half. Why? Because #ODSP recipients only get a $200/m income exemption. Earn more and 50¢ of every dollar is clawed back.

Excited at the launch of our #mentoring project with Young Diplomats of Canada bringing together over 60 #diplomats and young professionals keen in #internationalaffairs #MakeADifference Peter M Boehm Yuen Pau Woo

Thank you Ambassador Kamaldinov for the great discussion that allowed us to cover 🇰🇿 🇨🇦 relations, multilateral issues & conflict/security concerns in 🇺🇦 & beyond.

That day 8 yrs ago indelibly etched in my memory. Violence, murder, lockdown Global Affairs Canada. Later receiving PM Stephen Harper, ministers, MPs, staffers, tourists all evacuated after Centre Block lockdown. Pass by monument to Cpl Cirillo every day, thinking of him, his family,🇨🇦.

Impressive demonstration today in #Berlin in support of the ongoing #IranProtests .

For a young Canadian, fresh out of university, who is interested in 🌎 issues + the environment, would it be better for that person to join Environment Canada or to join Global Affairs Canada in a generalist Foreign Affairs career? ⬇ ow.ly/kcGw50Li3Sv #cdnpoli #SenCA #AEFA Stephen de Boer

Eight years have passed since the tragic events of October 22, 2014 on Parliament Hill, but the heroes of our community will forever be remembered.

Today, we honour the actions of everyone who responded to the Parliament Hill shooting on that day.

A strong message of solidarity with Russia's pro-democracy and anti-war movement as the city of Brampton (Greater Toronto) officially unveils Boris Nemtsov Park. Thank you, Canada 🇨🇦

Insightful observations from Timothy Snyder today at Senate of Canada Foreign Affairs and International Trade Committee on the situation in #Ukraine . Great to hear from one of the top global experts on Ukraine, Russia, and Eastern Europe. #AEFA

I am a resident of Ottawa. I have lived in different cities across the 🌎; ours needs a greater, progressive strategic vision. I will vote for ⁦Catherine McKenney 🏳️‍⚧️ (they/them)⁩; they have experience, a plan & demonstrated leadership during the illegal occupation. ottawacitizen.com/news/local-new…

Lively discussion with officer cadets of ⁦RMC Canada CMR⁩ this morning. Thème du jour: Arctic security & sovereignty. Merci pour l’invitation.

Grateful to meet today with ⁦Guillaume Grosso⁩ & Paula Gonzalez of ⁦Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance⁩ (The Vaccine Alliance). We discussed COVAX, vaccine procurement/distribution in Africa, donor country approaches & future planning. I admire & support GAVI’s work for a healthier planet. ⁦

Je passe devant la sculpture ' Les femmes sont des personnes ! ' presque tous les jours à Ottawa, et j'apprécie le rappel que de nombreuses femmes ont ouvert la voie à ma capacité de représenter les Canadiens et Canadiennes au Sénat.

Today is #PersonsDay ! #OTD in 1929, women were legally recognized as “persons” and given the right to be appointed to the Senate. The Famous Five challenged the Constitution and won. Today, there are 46 women senators!

#SenCA

This Persons Day I was delighted to join members of Famous 5 Ottawa & female candidates for City of Ottawa council & school board trustees. I asked to speak & cheer them on because not too long ago women had no seats at these tables. #municipalitiesmatter FCM madamepremier
