Congratulations to the three Albertans among last month’s inductees into the Order of Canada: businessman and philanthropist Mazhar (Mike) Shaikh, naturalist Clifford Wallis, and stroke researcher Michael Hill. Alberta is so proud of your achievements!

Canada’s respected position in matters of international diplomacy and policy-setting is the result of the research being done at places like @caglobalaffairs. Yesterday I recognized this important work by awarding King Charles III Coronation Medals to 10 outstanding CGAI members.

“With guns you can kill terrorists. With education you can kill terrorism.” As Malala Yousafzai has noted, an educated world is a freer, more peaceful world. On #MalalaDay, let us keep working to remove all barriers preventing young people from receiving an education.

What a thrill to be included in @EdifyEdmonton's "Favourite Things" issue. In a city with so many incredible shops and cultural events, it was impossible to choose just one "favourite" but Symphony Under the Sky is an especially treasured family tradition.

Best known as the co-founder of the world-class Spruce Meadows equestrian park, Margaret Southern has profoundly shaped business, education and community life in Alberta. While at Spruce Meadows on Saturday, I was proud to present her with the King Charles III Coronation Medal.

I wished the young athletes and volunteers heading to Dubai for the Global Encounters Festival a successful trip. They will be taking the beautiful lanterns known as faanoos along with them as a symbol of hope and global unity. I am sure they will all make Canada proud.

From there, we got to witness over 50 Canadians take their citizenship oath at the QEII Building. A moving ceremony and a true honour to be on hand to welcome them to our Canadian family.
