My deepest sympathy to all affected by the violent attack on a Jerusalem city bus. We must stand against all acts of violence and terror, and work internationally towards peaceful resolution. Breaking cycles of violence requires global leadership based in human rights and justice.

I hope to receive strong support from our membership in the leadership review, and commit that I will stay on as MP AND be a strong voice for Greens in parliament, even as the party starts the process of leadership renewal! #GPC #cndpoli

At a time when our multilateral world order is increasingly threatened, I am grateful for United Nations. For all its faults, without it, the world would be much less secure.

Today marks the anniversary of the signing of the #UnitedNationsCharter. The #UnitedNations is a global beacon for justice, environmental action and human rights. The federal government must put forward a climate action plan that will enable us to still meet our #ParisAgreement commitments.

It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of #JohnMcCallum... He was a friend. Kind, thoughtful and willing to listen. Deepest condolences to his family and all who are touched by his death. #RIP #cdnpoli

I am grateful to serve alongside the Green Party's Deputy Leader, Rainbow Eyes. She speaks out about how protecting Mother Earth is in our DNA, and the healing and love from Indigenous teachings will get us through the threats to our Mother Earth.

On this #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay, we reaffirm our commitment to safeguarding the inalienable rights of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. I will keep fighting every day for the principles of Indigenous sovereignty and self-determination.

Very grateful to #MarcGarneau for his kindness and support when we fought to protect environmental laws attacked by Harper administration. We have lost a truly great Canadian.. and far too soon. #RIP

#ManitobaFires Climate change is not an "issue" for a word or two in #SpeechFromTheThrone. Climate crisis is a massive security threat. It is an emergency.
