2021 marks 25 years since the Honorable Dr. Jean Augustine "singlehandedly championed the unanimous vote to officially designate February as Black History Month in Canada" ("Celebrate Black History Month..." www.cbc.com; February 4, 2021).Since then, Canadian Black communities have experienced many firsts in Canadian policymaking for recognition, justice and development of the excellence of Black Canadians.

The Honorable Dr. Augustine in many regards set the stage and the pace for the further development and recognition of Black diplomacy in Canadian policy relations.
