Canadian Press: Commons Chamber and Nations Messenger

canadian press: The Canadian Press By Bruce Campion-Smith Ottawa Bureau Alex Boutilier Ottawa Bureau Reporter Wed., April 12, 2017 OTTAWA Few new Canadians go right from a citizenship ceremony to addressing Parliament, according to Toronto Star. But then few people are like Malala Yousafzai Nobel Peace Prize winner, a United Nations messenger of peace, a global advocate for education. In a Wednesday address to Parliament, Yousafzai praised Canadians for standing together in the face of terrorism. And still just 19. The adoration was evident from the moment Yousafzai entered the House of Commons chamber to a sustained standing ovation. The Pakistan woman, who survived a Taliban attack five years ago, dazzled MPs and dignitaries Wednesday with a Parliament Hill speech sprinkled with inspiration, humour and a call for Canada to do more for global development.
