Let's make this birthday one to remember.

86 years old (Born on November 16, 1938)

Happy Birthday, Donald Oliver! From your distinguished service as Speaker pro tempore of the Canadian Senate in 2010 to your unwavering dedication to public life, you've certainly mastered the art of parliamentary diplomacy. Who knew keeping senators in line could be done with such grace and humor?

Your tireless advocacy for diversity and inclusion has left an indelible mark on Canada’s political landscape. May this birthday bring you as much joy as a perfectly timed parliamentary recess—and may your celebrations be free from filibusters! Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter, success, and fewer points of order. Cheers!
