Glad that transphobia is not condoned in Nova Scotia. I'm proud of NS for producing leaders like @TimHoustonNS, @ChenderClaudia and @zachchurchill, who stand up for what's right. Protecting the rights of trans people is protecting the rights of all people. #TransDayOfRemembrance

"Now John Lennon is lifting boxes in some department store as welfare conditionality." So true. The Lennons of the world should be free with UBI to pursue the work of music that interests them, not checking some stupid welfare bureaucracy box to "prove their worth" to society.
The UK's strong welfare state led to people creating some of the greatest musical trends in history. Could Universal Basic Income do the same and more?

If I were Premier, and a school administration under my own Minister of Education & ECE made a big mistake, then the only public statement you would see from me would be an apology.

If someone tells you the best way to solve a problem is to saddle entire generations with unsustainable debt, you should question their motives.

We need a school meal programme. Kids cannot learn when they get to school hungry. So glad this pmb has cleared its first hurdle! @CanadianGreens
Who votes against a National School Food Program that would save families across the country $1000s of dollars per year per child? CONSERVATIVES! Pierre Poilievre's minions. The only party to vote against it. Shameful. #NeverConservatives #NeverPoilievre
