Without wanting to get into the substance of what is happening, is there any precedent anywhere in the world of a Finance Minister in a parliamentary system resigning on the day of a major economic statement? theglobeandmail.com/politics…
Astonished by the collapse of BC United. #BCpoli's political system first polarized into the CCF/NDP vs a centre-right coalition in the 1940s, but to go from official opposition to unilaterally standing down just before an elxn is unprecedented globalnews.ca/news/10719653/…

1/ A big day in @PIP_PSP history! After a Call for Interest, the @OurCommons selected @UOttawaPoliSci to take over from @cpsa_acsp as the PIP host starting 1 July 2025. This will bring new support to the Interns while maintaining PIP as #CdnPoli's premier legislative internship

Hugely grateful to the @CanEmbUSA for hosting the reception for the 50th anniversary of the exchange between the @PIP_PSP and the Fellows, to @BMO and @RBC for supporting the event, and @usembassyottawa for funding the PIPs to be here #CDNpoli
This week marks the 50th anniversary of the DC leg of the annual Canada-US Legislative Exchange between the PIP and the @APSAtweets Congressional Fellows. A huge thanks to @CanEmbUSA for partnering with us to celebrate the event and to @BMO and @RBC for sponsoring the reception.
Incredibly proud of 2023-24 @PIP_PSP intern @cynthiachuo who will be starting her PhD at @PUPolitics next fall. I can't wait to see what she'll accomplish, and to have her back to speak to future cohorts
Beyond excited to share that I will be starting my PhD at @PUPolitics this fall!
So many people helped me get to where I am today. A very special thank you to my amazing mentors @westernuPoliSci and for my wonderful colleagues @PIP_PSP for their support throughout this process!

A great thread for those trying to sort out the House of Commons procedure that lay behind the #GazaVote at the UK Parliament yesterday
I'm glad steps are being taken to protect #CDNpoli politicians, but it's tragic that it is necessary.
No one should fear for their lives for serving as an elected representative, and such threats will only discourage citizens from taking part in politics ctvnews.ca/politics/some-mem…
For today's coffee, I'm trying out the @NATO mug I received during the @PIP_PSP's visit to NATOHQ in January. Thanks to @EUinCanada for making the visit possible as part of our study tour to Brussels, and @CanadaNATO for arranging our briefing sessions #WeAreNATO
In just over a week, the @CSPG_GCEP will host a unique seminar on #reconciliation and #cdnpoli legislatures, with participation by representatives from federal, provincial, territorial, and indigenous legislatures and their international counterparts. Student rates are available!
🚨SEMINAR / COLLOQUE🚨

We hope to see you there! Nous espérons vous y voir!

Breaking in my new Belgian Federal Parliament mug from the recent @PIP_PSP visit to Brussels. It adds a note of bicameralism to your day with both @LaChambreBE and @SenaatSenat being well represented

I was privileged to present on Monday to the @UKParliament's @CommonsProcCom alongside @JonathanMalloy. We spoke about legislative scrutiny of federal-provincial relations in #CDNpoli as part of the Committee's study on the UK constitution. Thanks @UKinCanada for the invitation

Folks in #Ottawa - my colleague Thomas Richardson is missing. If anyone sees him or his car please contact police ottawapolice.ca/en/news/miss…
It's true - the PIP is open to those with any degree from anthropology to zoology and everything in between #cdnpoli
Did you know: the PIP isn’t just for those who studied political science. If you have an undergraduate in any subject and want to work directly with #CDNpoli MPs, then this could be the chance for you!
