Deepest condolences to the family, and to all who knew, the Honorable Murray Sinclair, who passed on 4 November. He did so much good in the life he lived, and we have all benefited from his great works of service. RIP

A privilege today to speak at the first annual @ICUF_Awards lunch celebrating three decades of exchange between students and researchers in Ireland and Canada.
I was fortunate to have received a Dobbin scholarship in 2011 and the support of the Dobbin family has been tremendous
