MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Sen. Peter Boehm, a career diplomat, said senators once thought they were shielded from the kinds of security risks sometimes faced by members of Parliament.
Boehm said senators first began to feel the security environment had changed during the convoy protest that paralyzed downtown Ottawa for weeks in early 2022.
In a debate earlier this month over the Senate's spending plans, Sen. Lucie Moncion said security costs for the Red Chamber have increased.
But that was before she was targeted for online harassment last fall and received a threatening phone call that prompted her to leave her home for a few days.
A post by Conservative House leader Andrew Scheer encouraged Canadians to contact Clement and fellow senator Chantal Petitclerc to tell them what they thought.
Sen. Paula Simons said that while she hasn't really noticed a change in the atmosphere around senators, she recently had to deal with an incident while at an event in Edmonton.
