Senate independence is a success that must continue. Although not a pressing issue, in my op-ed, I urge @MarkJCarney & @PierrePoilievre to commit to upholding senators' independence from political parties, as 7 of 10 Canadians prefer. tinyurl.com/49ftpchm #cdnpoli #SenCA

Let’s us not forget about all the atrocities committed by the Iranian Government and its security forces on its citizens in #Iran and abroad
"When we are all speaking about the Hormuz Straight, and the ships waiting to embark and depart, and oil and gas, we are focusing, maybe, on the wrong things. We should also be focusing on human rights, fundamental human rights, and the people of Iran." - @DalphondPierre

CETFA had a productive day on Parliament Hill, engaging with policymakers on key priorities for Canada’s ETF industry and Canadian investors. Our conversations focused on the Allocation to Redeemers (ATR) methodology and the proposed Maple Investment TFSA, with a shared focus on supporting middle-income Canadians and strengthening opportunities to invest in Canada. A special thank you to Raj Lala (Evolve ETFs), Rohit Mehta (Global X Canada), Alan Green (Scotia Global Asset Management), Alex Perel (Scotiabank - Global Banking and Markets), and Shalomi Abraham for joining us and contributing to these important conversations. Thank you as well to Vince Gasparro, Adam Chambers, Jean-Philippe Arseneau, Senator Pierre J. Dalphond, Senator Clément Gignac, and Carlos Leitão for taking the time to meet with us. And finally, thank you to the hundreds of people who joined us for our reception. We appreciate everyone who took the time to connect and share perspectives. @raj_lala_evolve @vgasparro @adamchamb @DalphondPierre @gignacclement @CarlosJLeitao @EvolveETFs @globalxca @scotiabank @CanRevAgency @FinanceCanada #CETFA #CanadianETFs #InvestingInCanada #CanadianInvesting #ETFs #FinancialPolicy

Daniel Jolivet will be granted a new trial. A proper outcome considering the Minister’s conclusion that a miscarriage of justice likely occurred in his 1994 conviction.

Daniel Jolivet va bénéficier d’un nouveau procès. Un résultat approprié considérant la conclusion du ministre qu’une erreur judiciaire s’est probablement produite dans la déclaration de culpabilité en 1994.

Gvt de Pékin doit cesser d’emprisonner #JimmyLai, 78 ans, pour avoir encouragé liberté d’expression à #HongKong. Les leaders du #G7 doivent répéter leur appel pour sa libération. #FreeJimmyLai #SenCA @TheRWCHR @SupportJimmyLai @thecfhk @vkaramurza
