Canadian Politicians: Canadian Citizenship and Corridor Conversations

canadian politicians: She drew tears to their eyes, according to The Chronicle Herald. Malala Yousafzai, the passionate 19-year-old who was shot by the Taliban on her way home from school in Pakistan five years ago, brought Canadian politicians from both sides of the aisle to their feet even as she provoked them, eye to eye, to do so much more for the education of girls around the world. She joked. The granting of honorary Canadian citizenship to the young Nobel prize winner on Wednesday reminded MPs why they chose to run for office, prompting corridor conversations about their common goals. The ground shifted in federal politics this week, first with a quick and dramatic reshaping of global power in the wake of the U.S. bombing of a Syrian airfield, and then at a domestic level when the Liberals introduced legislation to make marijuana legal. Malala was a momentary respite. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
