Watching Glory Die: Road to Edinburgh

Welcome to Episode 5 "The Senator" This week’s episode is one that has a SERIOUS cool factor – I was able to grab about 25 minutes of Senator Kim Pate’s time via Skype - so another new skill added to the bank! Her connection to our show is pretty big – in 2007 she was the Executive Director of the Canadian Elizabeth Fry Society - which is an association of self-governing, community-based Elizabeth Fry Societies that work with and for women and girls in the justice system, particularly those who are, or may be, criminalized. In that capacity she acted as Ashley Smith's advocate when she was in the Grand Valley Correctional facility. We had a really interesting chat about the play vs the real case, Bill C-83 and how Ashley Smith's legacy continues on today.
