Presidents of member institutions of Christian Higher Education Canada (CHEC) recently had a photo opportunity with Prime Minister Stephen Harper. With twice the number of presidents as other institutions, the Prime Minister has now recently heard the name of the Institute for Christian Studies twice during introductions.
ICS President Dawn Wolthuis said that it was exciting and enlightening touring one of his offices, and meeting the Prime Minister of Canada. Dawn also enjoyed meeting United States President Barack Obama in Iowa a few years ago. Could a meeting with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada, be next?
This event took place the day before a CHEC special membership meeting in Ottawa on October 25, 2013. More information about that meeting can be found at www.checanada.ca/news/chec-parliament-hill/
