Very saddened to learn of the loss of Marc Garneau. He was not just an incredible Parliamentarian, he was an incredible Canadian. His exploits in space and in the House of Commons inspired all of us. It was privilege to serve with him and he will be missed by all of us.

The Filipino community make amazing contributions every day to this country. Saturday's tragedy is not just a loss for Filipinos it's a loss for all of Canada. We all stand with you in this time of mourning.

When Pope Francis took up the call to come to Canada&apologize for the role the Church played in the indigenous residential school system,I was in Alberta in 2022 for his public audience.This apology was long overdue but much needed, as we continue our path toward reconciliation.
