Inspiring. Well done Debra. Thank you for bringing all these incredible stories to light and hearing about them first hand from these women trail blazers.
I would not have had the career I did without the support and encouragement of this generation of women leaders in politics and public policy. So grateful.
I felt totally immersed in and captivated by this interview. I had to watch it to the end in one seating. It’s like a book that you can’t put down.
Thanks for your comment, Rita!
What a terrific interview. So happy to have been involved with a bit of this - - an incredible time in Canadian history. Great to see you both doing so well.
So inspiring. We’ve come along way thanks to these women champions. Still a long way to go but there is much to be hopeful for. It’s so important to hear these stories.
Can't wait to hear their voices
