It’s about where Churchill fits in the future of Canada’s grain supply chain—and which markets can make the northern gateway matter at scale.

This summer, 🇨🇦 is co-hosting the world and I couldn’t be more proud.

But in the middle of all the excitement, I keep coming back to a little girl named Sira.

Sira once couldn’t run. Couldn’t play. Couldn’t kick a ⚽ with the other kids. After surgery she held a football dreaming of what was now possible.

That image is why I do this work.

While millions celebrate the beautiful game in stadiums across North America, there are children around the world still waiting for their moment on the field. At Mercy Ships Canada, we believe every child deserves a home field — and surgery is how we give it to them.

This is our moment to score a different kind of goal. ⚽

If this summer has reminded you what football means — the joy, the belonging, the pure freedom of play — I’d be honoured if you’d journey with us. Give one surgery. Put one more player on the field.

Delighted to see my former professor, colleague, and friend, Dr. Devinder Grewal, embark on this new voyage as a Member of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority - AMSA Board.

Over the years, I have admired Devinder’s ability to bridge academia and practice. Through his work at the Australian Maritime College and World Maritime University, and as a trusted advisor to the transport, logistics, and supply chain sectors, he has helped others navigate a rapidly changing maritime landscape.

Beyond his expertise, Devinder has a sharp understanding of the forces shaping our industry’s future. As maritime trade and global supply chains continue to evolve, his leadership and perspective will be a valuable asset to Australian Maritime Safety Authority and the broader maritime community.

Wishing you every success, Devinder. I look forward to seeing where this voyage leads.

I am pleased to appoint Dr Carla Boehl and Dr Devinder Grewal to the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) Board.

As Executive Director of Mercy Ships Canada, I am recognizing the women whose expertise and leadership anchor our mission on this International Day for Women in Maritime.

Across and throughout our global operations, women are navigating complexity, elevating clinical excellence, and strengthening the maritime systems that make safe, timely surgical care possible.

Their contributions are reshaping what maritime service and global health can become — more skilled, more inclusive, and more resilient.

To the women charting new courses in this sector: your impact reaches far beyond the horizon.

And to our colleagues, partners, and volunteers across the maritime and global health communities who have already come aboard — thank you for being part of the wave advancing opportunity and excellence for women in maritime.

Liberal MP , a former professor of international relations, had thrown Carney's Davos speech back at him in a video posted online that drew likes from other Liberals, saying Carney’s response to the war "felt different" than the Davos message of "independence, consistency, and principled pragmatism in our foreign policy, even when it's uncomfortable."

Mark Carney is trying to follow the approach of "values-based realism" in Canada's international relations, which he announced at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, in January. In practice, standing up for sovereignty and international law isn't always easy and doesn't always happen.

I’ve always believed that where you live should never determine whether you receive safe, timely health care.

That’s why the work of Mercy Ships Canada matters—and why I’m personally asking a Pharmacist to consider joining us at sea for at least three months.

This isn’t a typical role. It’s a chance to stand on the frontlines of health justice—supporting surgical teams, ensuring access to essential medications, and helping deliver care to communities too often left behind.

We’re looking for someone who is:
• A registered Pharmacist with 2+ years of experience
• BLS certified
• Fluent in English
• Ready to serve where the need is greatest

If you’ve ever felt called to use your skills for something bigger, this is that moment.

The functioning of the global economy depends on narrow passages and they will remain critical, and the associated geopolitical, climatic, and operational risks will persist. We are completing our analysis, but before finalizing, we seek practical insights from practitioners and policymakers.

Many everyday goods, from fuel to food and medical equipment, rely on shipments that pass through a few narrow maritime straits. These chokepoints concentrate global trade and are vulnerable to disruption.
