  1. Well. Senate debate on C-12 is over. The bill has now gone back to the House with two amendments- but to my sorrow, all our other amendments failed. Still, I’m proud of the two dozen or so senators from all parts of the Chamber who stood together to fight for justice for immigrants, refugees, international students and those on work visas. We made our arguments with passion, reason, evidence and courage. I hope courts will take note in the future. #C12 #BillC12 #cdnpoli #Canada #immigration

  2. Senator Senior’s amendment to Bill C-12 passed - a nice surprise. I had less luck with the amendment I proposed tonight, to try to put some meaningful parliamentary oversight on the mass cancellations of visa and permanent residency cards. I thought my amendment was elegant. But it may have been too clever for its own good! youtu.be/AFPJWRPW9O4?si=toJ-9T #C12 #BillC12 #immigration #cdnpoli #Canada #SenateofCanada

  3. Today, I was a guest on the Borderlines immigration law podcast, to talk about Bill C-12 and the role of the modern Senate in reviewing difficult legislation. With a conclusion that looks at Danielle Smith’s anti-immigrant discourse. youtu.be/sgaggc8uv_Q #BillC12 #C12 #cdnpoli #SenateofCanada #ableg #Alberta #Canada

  4. Next up - Bill C-12. Thursday night, I rose in the Senate to call out the so-called “reforms” to our immigration & refugee systems, which have been condemned by civil society groups across Canada. I was the only Senator to give a speech in opposition to the bill - perhaps because, as an Albertans, I have already witnessed the dangers of demonizing new Canadians and asylum seekers. youtu.be/U1QAtaBy-sM?si=np2nmi #C12 #BillC12 #cdnpoli #SenateofCanada #SenCa #Alberta #ableg #abpoli #DanielleSmith #immigration #ICE

  5. Neue Varianten, nachlassender Impfschutz, Impfdurchbrüche - während die Impfkampagne weltweit nur schleppend voran kommt, wollen reiche Länder ein drittes Mal impfen. Für wen ist der Booster sinnvoll?
