Bill S-211 is before the House of Commons. Beyond the advertising, it would also establish national standards adressing the harms of gambling addiction. I encrouage you to write your MP voicing your support for this legislation so we can get to work on combatting these harms. #cdnpoli

Our shared interest in Science/Innovation and Sport led to many conversations.

Perhaps however, the most profound impact was a strong value we shared.  

That is, that we can find the light in complex work while listening and challenging  very different perspectives.

I have continued to think about Kirsty Duncan all week while reading many tributes and memories.

I first met Kirsty three decades ago when I was working as an educator trying to engage girls in the Sciences(STEM).

To connect again on Parliament Hill was a gift.
