The need for Senate reform has only grown with time. Representation is so unequal. British Columbia has one senator for every 953,000 people. Prince Edward Island has one senator for every 44,000 people. Does that seem fair? #Senate #cdnpoli #BCpoli #PEIpoli

Public schools must serve all students, regardless of political or religious beliefs that teachers and students may hold. Education ministers in both Ontario and Alberta have made initiatives in recent weeks that reinforce this. #ABpoli #ONpoli #education
Canada seems worse off now than at its centennial. If Canada is to endure, Canadians must be willing to fight politically, culturally, and economically to improve it. Countries survive longer only when enough people believe their country is worth the struggle and get involved. #cdnpoli
