Eight years ago this week, I was sworn in to the Senate of Canada. I chose a dress the colour of Alberta’s flag - or at least, as close as I could find at West Edmonton Mall on short notice!. Separatists have Alberta’s bold blue flag their symbol. But I’m not ceding it to them. #Alberta #cdnpoli

I also took a moment last week to rise in the Senate to blast the toxic anti-immigrant questions, and to remind Albertans that immigration is in our enlightened self-interest, especially in rural Alberta. #SenateofCanada #immigration #Alberta @senatorloffreda.bsky.social #abpoli

My thanks, also, to my Senate colleague @senatorloffreda.bsky.social whose own inquiry created an opportunity for me to give this speech, which you can also watch here.

I believe there are still (free) tickets available for this timely conversation! Aaron’s new book is fascinating. @ualbertapress.bsky.social @litfestyeg.bsky.social #yeg #Edmonton #cdnpoli #Alberta
