Nobel Peace laureate Malala Yousafzai became only the sixth person to receive honorary Canadian citizenship, as she called on the country to be bold in advocating for girls’ education.
Yousafzai is the youngest person to speak to Canadian members of parliament and senators in a joint session.
She is also the youngest to receive honorary Canadian citizenship — a privilege previously granted to five others including Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama and Myanmar’s Aung San Suu Kyi.
