Honourable senators, this week, we will be paying tribute to the Senate pages who will be leaving us this summer. Sofiya Sapeha will be entering her final year of studies at the University of Ottawa in the fall in public administration with a minor in economics. This summer, she will continue working in the public service.

Upon graduation, she hopes to pursue graduate studies in security and diplomacy. Sofiya is thankful to have had the opportunity to represent the province of Ontario and the Ukrainian-Canadian community in the Senate Page Program for the past two years, and would like to thank all of those who made it a memorable experience.

Skylar Johnson is very thankful to have had the chance to participate in the Senate Page Program this year and for all the learning opportunities and support she received along the way. Next year, Skylar will be completing her final year of study in communications and sociology at the University of Ottawa.
