“Honour, dedication, integrity”: Carney names Louise Arbour as next governor general of Canada

From Global News.

Former Supreme Court justice Louise Arbour will be Canada’s next governor general, replacing Mary Simon in the role, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Tuesday.
“Canada is a wonderful country, shaped by its diversity of people, of perspectives and experiences, but I think shaped, also, mostly by a common respect for strong public institutions and for the rule of law,” Arbour said.
“I will strive to serve with honour, dedication and integrity,” she said.
Arbour, who was born in Montreal, served as a Supreme Court justice from 1999 to 2004. Before serving in Canada’s highest court, she was appointed to the Supreme Court of Ontario in 1987 and the Court of Appeal for Ontario in 1990. In 1995, she led a public inquiry into the conditions of prisons for women in Ontario.
Carney’s appointment of Arbour again puts a bilingual speaker of both English and French into the role.
