Welcome to my website!  As a Senator in the Senate of Canada, I am pleased to be able to provide this site to communicate with you over the internet and at your convenience.

 

Our Canadian Parliamentary system has many long-standing traditions and has a proud history that extends over 200 years. 

I believe we all have a duty to participate in the democratic process, to ensure that realistic goals for society are met. It is the first step towards a brighter future for generations to come.                                                                                       

 

This website is intended to help you understand Canada’s 

Parliament and its legislative process and was designed and written to provide you with answers to commonly asked questions by constituents, students and the general public – those who want to know how our Parliament works and specifically what work is undertaken by my office and the Senate as a whole.

 

I have always believed that a Senator should be accountable and approachable to all citizens of Canada.  Your views are an important contribution to make to the Parliamentary process and I, therefore, hope that you will feel free to contact my office with any questions or comments you wish to make.

 

It has been and continues to be an honour for me to serve the people of British Columbia, first as a Member of Parliament (1983-1988) and since 1993 as a Senator and, I look forward to continuing to serve for many more years.

 

Sincerely,

 

Hon. Gerry St. Germain, P.C.
