I had a great time yesterday with brilliant young leaders from the Polish Scouts Association at a SENgage event at the Polish Consulate in Montreal. We discussed the work of the Senate and broke out into small groups to analyze and debate legislation. The future is bright!

Prior to the Senate, she founded one of the first domestic violence shelters in Canada.
Upon her retirement in 2018, she was the longest serving member of the Senate of Canada.
