Senator Frances Lankin Celebrates Ratna Omidvar’s Honourary Degree from Ryerson University
"The other thing that is exceptional about Senator Ratna Omidvar, who received her Honorary Doctor of Laws this week — this is her second one — is the impact she has had on our collective lives in Canada. She came here as an immigrant and has been a leader in community organizations at the grassroots level. Peoples’ lives are touched through her settlement work and advocacy around migration and immigration issues."
