Thank you to Crossroads International for hosting their 14th Annual Day of the Girl Child Breakfast!

We celebrated the voices and power of girls, championing their rights around the world and reflecting on the challenges they continue to face.

Dear Canada, it’s time to build.

The housing crisis can’t wait - so we didn’t.

Our government has launched Build Homes Canada, with 13 billion dollars to kickstart large projects, unlock private capital, and build housing across the country.

A few people asked why I’ve been in Ottawa so often. As MPs, we are in the House of Commons for sittings to represent our ridings, debate national issues, and vote on legislation.

From the Parliamentary Internship Program to co-founding McGill’s Women in House 20 years ago my journey has always been about bringing more women’s voices into politics.

Add women, change politics. Thank you for having me @progresscanada.bsky.social

The National School Food Program is now permanent!

This means up to 400,000 children will have access to healthy meals at school, . No child should learn on an empty stomach.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Freedom Boat Club.

Boat clubs are just one example of how we can reimagine access ensuring it continues to serve both residents and visitors while contributing to our city’s global reputation.

Appreciative of @runchinguyenrun.bsky.social using her time in Parliament today to recognize the importance of C-11 but specifically, the contributions of us civil society experts who've been demanding better yet consistently shut out.

Being name dropped in a positive way re: CAF is refreshing 😂

We are building this country — and creating thousands of new, high-paying careers in the trades.

Bill C-11 is not just about reforming policies or updating processes. It is about the much-needed modernization of the Canadian military justice system so those who experience sexual misconduct and harassment can seek the justice they deserve.

I joined the Chinese and Southeast Asian Legal Clinic at their 2025 Annual General Meeting.

Thank you for the work you do and for the difference you continue to make in so many lives.

Today, we honour the lives, memories, and spirits of Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQI+ people who have gone missing or been murdered.

We stand with survivors, families, and communities in their pursuit of justice, healing, and safety. We must end this national crisis.

Chi Nguyen @runchinguyenrun.bsky.social · 11d

This week I joined National & Women’s Caucus, attended the Survivor’s Flag Raising Ceremony, and was in the house while Bill C-9, the Combating Hate Act was debated.

On Thursday I delivered a statement on FIFA 2026 which you can watch here: youtu.be/UQQECCTDZO4.

See you at Nuit Blanche!

Today on Parliament Hill, we raised the Survivors’ Flag in honour of the children sent to residential schools, those who never returned home, and for the families forever impacted.

May this flag stand as a reminder of truth, and the work still ahead on the path to reconciliation 🧡

As Yom Kippur begins at sundown, I want to extend my heartfelt wishes to Jewish families in Spadina–Harbourfront & across Canada observing this sacred day. May this time of fasting, prayer, and reflection bring spiritual renewal, peace, and optimism for the year ahead.

Today on #NationalDayforTruthandReconciliation, I’m supporting One Day’s Pay—a campaign urging Canadians to donate a day’s pay (or what you can) to Indigenous-led projects + movements.
Reflection matters, but action matters more. Learn more: onedayspay.ca

🧡 On this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we remember the children who never came home and honour Survivors and their families.

Every story matters, and every child matters.
