When I served as a Chief and then later as Regional Chief, I worked hard to address the concerns of the communities I represented and to improve the lives of the people who chose me to be a leader.
The Mi’kmaq have a teaching that all Indigenous peoples are tied together by a common ribbon and, collectively, we are all known as “L’nu”.
I see this role of Senator as an evolution of my work in the communities; I see this as an opportunity to work hard on behalf of all L’nu and all Canadians, while always letting my words and actions be grounded by and rooted in the 7 Sacred Teachings: Love, Respect, Courage, Honesty, Wisdom, Humility and Truth.
I pledge to do my best with the opportunities given to me and to remain true to my Mi’kmaw identity.
*In my role as Senator, I always try to ensure that my work reflects not only my role but my identity as a proud Mi’kmaq. The Senate Emblem is shrouded in the Grand Council Flag as a symbol of this duality and overall approach.*
