I’ve never heard a speech to world leaders that included the word “I” so often.

Chrystia Freeland was our QB in a NAFTA renegotiation with a hostile Trump 1.0. She was central to 🇨🇦s successful management of the pandemic crisis. She galvanized a global alliance for Ukraine’s dogged defence vs Russia’s attack. A prodigious 🇨🇦, she’s earned our high praise.

Florida: No to science, yes to polio, chickenpox, hepatitis and a whole bunch of easily and safely preventable diseases… When a small child dies in your state of a highly preventable disease, will you still be cheering?

Congrats to @WesternU on breaking ground on the new Pathogen Research Centre, backed by $3.9M through the Ontario Research Fund. This state-of-the-art facility will give researchers the tools to safely study infectious diseases and develop new treatments — leading to life-saving

Investments like this are strengthening Canada’s position as a global leader in biomedical innovation. Western’s Pathogen Research Centre is a prime example of Canadian innovation turning breakthrough ideas into life-saving solutions.

Seven #WesternU profs were recognized by the Royal Society of Canada (@src_rsc). Six scholars across disciplines were elected Fellows by their peers, and one researcher was named a Member of the Society's College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists. 👏 https://t.co/HnaxVMdbXR
