Remembering Ed Broadbent, 1936–2024

Posted by Caroline Suzuki on

A note from editor Jennifer Smith It was a privilege to spend the past two years working with Ed and his co-authors, Frances Abele, Jonathan Sas, and Luke Savage, on Seeking Social Democracy. At 87, Ed remained sharp as a tack. I recall him taking a question at the Ottawa book launch, from a teacher who asked about Saskatchewan's invocation of the notwithstanding clause. As close to angry as I ever saw him, (not that close at all, really), Ed called out that province's government for misusing the clause and denying basic human rights to children of that province.

Posted by Jen Knoch on
