It is a great personal and professional pleasure to send out birthday greetings from Art’s History to our nation’s first female Prime Minister, the Right Honourable Kim Campbell, on her special day. It was in 1993 that she broke the most difficult glass ceiling in Canada and she remains an inspirational figure to young women interested in public affairs to this very day. She has also been a great supporter of my work in the field of political history and I owe her a great deal. Happy birthday PM Kim!
