Senator Rob Black, P. Ag. (Hon)

A wonderful evening last night in Laval, QC, celebrating the 2026 inductees in to the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame - Dr. David Bailey, Gary Bowers, Guy Charbonneau, Ken Forth and Dr. Brian Rossnagel were recognized for their outstanding contributions to the Canadian agriculture and food industry. Congratulations and thank you to each of them! #AgricultureMatters #CdnAgHallOfFame

It was my honour and privilege to have lunch today with former President of Ireland, Mary Robinson, at the Residence of the Irish Ambassador. Her presidency is regarded as having a transformative effect on Ireland, and the messages she shared today were insightful.

A great week of meetings! I spoke with the new Executive Director of the Canadian Seed Growers’ Association about issues facing the seed industry. I also had a sit-down with MP David Bexte to discuss his Facilitating Agricultural Regulatory Modernization (FARM) Act. And it’s always great to hear the perspectives and insights from a younger generation. Thanks, Hannah Lang, for dropping by my office for a visit.

Last night, I was pleased to attend a dinner as part of the 27th edition of the Teachers Institute on Canadian Parliamentary Democracy. I had a chance to meet many of the educators who came from across the country and to speak about my role as an Ontario Senator. Good luck with the rest of the week!

Today, I rose in the @SenateCA to recognize Show Your 4-H Colours Day, 4-H Canada’s biggest annual event. 4-H youth are making incredible contributions in their communities as compassionate, responsible, and engaged young leaders. Let us come together to celebrate the amazing work that is being done and support them as they continue to make a difference!
