Assignment 6- Canadian- African famous people

Marlene Jennings was the first black woman from Quebec to be elected into the Parliament. Since then, she has devoted much of her time toward women , aboriginal people, ethnic and racial minorities. Marlene has participated in numerous international and national conferences. She has contributed by giving equality to those discriminated for who they are. Her confidence and support in the Black society has helped her to move forward in life. Marlene motivates the proper Human rights for ethnic people. She manages the public funds and also looks out for laws that are being overseen. Her involvement in the Canadian Society has made Canada a better place to live.

Ms. Jennings was the Liberal Justice Critic from February 2007 to January 2008. From July 2004 to October 2005, Ms. Jennings was the Parliamentary Secretary of Paul Edgar Philippe. She was also a member of the Quebec Police Commission and Deputy Commissioner for Police Ethics of Quebec. 1997 to 2001, Ms. Jennings was Secretary of the National Liberal Caucus. She has nine years of professional experience in the Parliament! Marlene Jennings received the Jackie Robinson Award and the Montreal Association of Black Business Professionals Award. She deserved to be acknowledged for her involvement in the community. I think we should look back and honour her for generosity to human kind. What an inspiring person!!!
