It was great to have Cape Breton University’s Dr. Heather Sparling attend yesterday’s Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development.
Heather took part in the new Science Meets Parliament program. This program brings scientists working in Canada to Parliament Hill in order to meet with MPs and Senators. They attend House and Senate Committee meetings, discuss scientific research, and gain familiarity with the political process.
Dr. Sparling investigates how music can be used to protect and teach rare languages – like Nova Scotian Gaelic!
