Today is the start of International Development Week. I want to thank @CanadaDev & all of our partners who build a more peaceful & inclusive world. It's also a chance to think about how we can support this effort too. Show us how you're supporting the @UN's SDGs.

Today on #EducationDay we recognize that every child has a gift to offer this world & we need to invest in them early so they can reach their full potential. We need to ask what they could achieve if given the opportunity that comes from a safe, high-quality education.

To honour the 215 children whose lives were taken at the former Kamloops residential school and all Indigenous children who never made it home, the survivors, and their families, I have asked that the Peace Tower flag and flags on all federal buildings be flown at half-mast.

Fantastic news for vulnerable communities around the world: Canada will facilitate equitable global access to COVID-19 tests, treatments, and vaccines.
To beat this virus here at home, we need to beat it everywhere. That’s why we’re helping develop, produce, and distribute tests, treatments, and vaccines to low- and middle-income countries by providing more support to the ACT Accelerator. Get the details: bit.ly/33q6jEk
