2/2: There is a fee of $995 for airfare, accommodation & meals (bursaries available if cost is an obstacle). Applications close Oct 25. This is a remarkable program. Many of today's politicians & decision-makers started here.

It was Hong Kong Culture Day at The Confluence yesterday; joined by Calgary Crowfoot colleague PatKelly MP, city councillors & MLAs. The theme was "Tasting Hong Kong"; thousands of people enjoyed food, entertainment & vendors celebrating culture of HK in YYC.
A bit chilly this morning but my team and I were out knocking on doors in Parkhill. Thanks to all who opened their doors and shared some thoughts with me.
At sunset tonight the Jewish community will begin to celebrate New Year: a time of reflection that recognizes human frailty, freedom of choice & responsibility, when one's name can be inscribed in the Book of Life.
Shana Tova! Ketivah v'chatima tovah!
While the weather is less than ideal, I hope you are enjoying the last long weekend of the summer before we all go back to the school and work routine.
I am disappointed with that decision but I will march with friends in the parade on Sunday & participate in the celebration that follows – where I always have great conversations with wonderful people.
I hope to see you.
