DD International Women’s Day event coverage

Last Saturday, I attended the DD International Women’s Day Awards and Celebration 2016, where a number of women from across many sectors and industries were honoured. As the keynote speaker for the evening, I gave a speech, “Follow Your Heart.” I was particularly honoured to share the stage with the Hon. Hazel McCallion, former mayor of Mississauga. More than 500 people attended and there was incredible world music and entertainment.

Here are some highlights:
