The Undergraduate Public Policy Students' Association is honoured to welcome Senator Marilou McPhedran, a prominent Canadian politician, human rights advocate, and legal expert, as our esteemed guest speaker! Since being appointed in 2016 to the Senate of Canada, her career has included the successful campaign for stronger gender equality protections in our Canadian constitution, and co-founding the Woman's Legal Education and Action Fund, the Metropolitan Action Committee on Violence Against Women and Children, and the Gerstein Crisis Centre.
 
In this event, Senator McPhedran will engage in meaningful discussion about the convergence of youth and politics, highlighting her youth advisory council and steadfast dedication to connecting the Senate of Canada with the younger generation.
