Our amazing Sumita was a vital member of embassy team and the #OPCW community. She was wicked smart, funny, brave, committed and empathetic. Sumita loved life so much, and excelled at living it well. Simon, Ishaan and Riya, I am so deeply sorry for your loss. ❤️
This is Sumita's family - Simon, Ishaan and Riya. We are heartbroken to share that on October 14, Sumita died at a hospital in Rotterdam. Sumita's passion for life, family, friends and work touched many of you. She wanted us to communicate how important you all were to her.

Please take a moment to read these loving words about our colleague, friend and mentor Deborah Chatsis. She blazed the trail and was a cheerleader for so many of us. I miss my friend but am so very grateful for her life, her leadership and her laughter.
Our beautiful colleague Ambassador Deborah Chatsis is gone. Last year her sister Verla penned a moving tribute to their intertwined lives. Worth 5 minutes of everyone’s time: A woman to her sister with cancer: ‘For now, I thank God you are here today’ macleans.ca/opinion/a-woman-…

“We don’t go to war. We go to the negotiating table. We go to court. We go to mediators. That is how we resolve disputes. The other way lies madness.” - @BobRae48 at the 11th Emergency Special Session of the #UNGA on #Ukraine 🇨🇦🇺🇦🌻

The Legion strongly condemns those who jumped on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and disrespected the National War Memorial on Saturday. The site commemorates those who fought and fell for the very freedoms that allow the right to protest peacefully and respectfully.

It’s the pursuit of perfection that’s the problem. The perfect gift. The perfect turkey. The perfect tree. The perfect Christmas. It’s a lot to aspire to, especially considering so many people struggle just to have a Christmas, much less a perfect one.

I was an able-bodied person until all of a sudden I wasn't. It has opened my eyes to barriers that have existed around me my whole life, that I had the luxury of not noticing until they affected me personally. /1 #InternationalDisabilityDay
