Call it good timing or a sign, but either way, it was a simple email to Rob Samulack from a faith-based environmental conservation group that changed everything. With it came the opportunity to visit Glasgow, Scotland for the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (known as COP26).

In this Q&A, we find out why it was so important for this Ottawa RN and RNAO member to embrace the opportunity, and make good on his desire to help influence how we pass the planet on to future generations.
