Mixed emotions today. I welcomed my 60th birthday, but am deeply saddened as I had to say goodbye to my son, Garrett, who passed away surrounded by love on March 5th
You will always be so loved and not a day will pass that I will not cherish every moment we got to share together
A mistake would be forgetting to cancel your $8.99 Disney Plus subscription after the free trial was over. Forgetting to repay a $41,000 vacation? Not so much.

We were finally able to celebrate the remarkable life & legacy of our son, Garrett Cumming. The service mirrored the length of a hockey game— one of Garretts true passions. Thank you to all the attendees for your kindness. Garrett you will be missed but never forgotten.
Thank you

This is a very clear and disturbing statement of where the Trudeau government is headed...
This push for more regulation isn't to protect Canadians, it's to control them. This is not a right that we can compromise on.

And with all of this, the feds think a fiscal "snapshot" is good enough. The state of our finances is not as sunny as we have been led to believe and the consequences are now on full display for all to see

This election, I have been at the doors hearing from you. Many have expressed anger and frustration at the health care system, as well as shared their struggles with mental health.
That is why the Conservative Party of Canada has developed a plan to secure health for all.

I am incredibly thankful for the support of so many who knew Garrett, and had their lives impacted by his extraordinary life.
Garrett’s legacy will live on through my advocacy in everything I do.
He continues to motivate me, and I think about him and miss him every single day.
We all understand and support the importance of our citizens health and safety
But those same citizens deserve to know where their money is going and what it’s being spend on
One of the highlights of being in Ottawa last week was getting the opportunity to sit down with

It’s been reported that on Wed, Justin Trudeau will try to shut down the Justice Comm. hearing that’s trying to get answers about his interference in a criminal prosecution.
Edm Ctr MP Randy Boissonnault is on the Justice Comm - Contact him! He can help stop Trudeau's cover-up!
Here’s to 38 years with my day one. I feel so blessed to have this amazing woman in my life. The transition to political life has been tough at times, crazy most of the time, but always a fun time with her by my side.
