On #InternationalWomensDay, nowhere is the fight for women’s basic rights more urgent than in Afghanistan. From the archive this week, my report on the Taliban’s ban on girls & women attending high school & universities, in an ongoing attempt to erase them from public life.
This #InternationalWomensDay, I’m celebrating remarkable changemakers from the @GirlsAlliance like Tây Thi who are creating a brighter future for girls around the world.
I hope you’ll join us in supporting this work. https://t.co/xhtw6qkrMo
With a heavy heart we have to say goodbye to Roberta Flack. She was a legend, with a voice that could soothe and stir all at once...Her music wasn’t just heard—it was FELT.
With timeless songs like “Killing Me Softly With His Song,” and “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” she gifted us music that has shaped generations.
Singing “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” was such an incredible honor, stepping into the world Roberta created with such grace and beauty. Thank you for sharing your remarkable gift with us.

I don’t want to hear any Republicans talk about “freedom” unless they have the guts to call out Trump for the lies that he is telling about Putin and Ukraine.
It was Russia that started the war, not Ukraine.
Putin is the dictator, not Zelensky.
A devoted group of us right now rallying to save our South Surrey - White Rock Learning Centre from shutting down. #bcpoli

Now is a good time to listen to or read "Lovely One: A Memoir” by Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. I love this book! She brings hope and inspiration to us all. I am grateful for her voice. Madam Justice, we are not giving up! You never did. https://t.co/o3PwsKjOLA
These lovely ladies are part of a local senior women’s prayer group. This week they stopped by the Detachment to present Sgt Mason with a $3,000 donation for the Cops for Cancer ride, which benefits Canadian Cancer Society. Thank you ladies we appreciate your kindness & support.
