From the heart of the House to our vibrant communities, this week has been a testament to action, progress, and unity. 📜✨

🌱 In Committee, from AGRI’s efforts to stabilize high food prices to ENVI’s dedication to our waters through the Clean Water Study and Lake Simcoe Cleanwater Action Fund, we’re shaping a healthier planet. And yes, we’re standing up for our equine friends, advocating for a ban on the export of live horses for slaughter.
🤖 On the Hill, we’re navigating the future with AI legislation, fostering global cooperation for health, and demanding an end to fossil fuel subsidies, uniting parties (with one notable exception) for our climate.
🎓 Special shoutout to Celine, a bright spark from McGill’s Women in House program, who joined me for a whirlwind day of insights and inspiration.
