Hillary Clinton is coming to Calgary next month for a public speaking engagement.

The presumptive front runner for the U.S. Democratic presidential nomination will give the keynote address at the Calgary Telus Convention Centre on March 6 as part of the Global Perspectives series produced by tinePublic Inc.

The former U.S. Secretary of State, U.S. Senator and First Lady is widely expected to make a second bid for the White House in 2016, although she has not confirmed she will run.

“Clinton played a central role in restoring America's standing in the world, reasserting the United States as a Pacific power, imposing crippling sanctions on Iran and North Korea, responding to the Arab Awakening and negotiating a ceasefire in the Middle East,” said tinePublic in a written release.

Tickets go on sale for $383.50 on Tuesday at Ticketmaster.ca, or can be purchased by calling 1-855-985-5000.
