WomanACT is excited that @SuzeMorrison motion for #NoCovidEvictions was passed yesterday. But our work isn’t done: to implement the motion and protect women’s housing, @fordnation must sign an emergency order. RT and share our letter to show your support. womanact.ca/news/ontario-nee…

One of my 7-year-olds just said "it's hot as bacon out there". I don't know what that means, but I like it, so I'm onpassing. You're welcome.

It's not always easy to share some of the specifics of my childhood experience, but I've realized that it's important. Folks continue to struggle the way that we did and we know that they're more likely to be Black or Indigenous. torontolife.com/food/when-yo…

As if we weren't inspired enough by the tireless work of these public servants in the face of #covid19, they still find time to inject some joy into our days. We're definitely feeling the #LocalLove ♥
Thanks to @sergeibaka, we were able to add some “avec classe” this week! These awesome scarves will be locked away and then auctioned off in support of @UWGreaterTO once we beat #COVIDー19 @Raptors @JohnTory @epdevilla

COVID has exposed the digital divide hidden from view during better times. Applying for EI, accessing virtual care, ordering groceries, connecting with friends/family—the digital haves/have nots experiencing the pandemic very differently. Not just a developing world issue.

A reminder from Dr. de Villa🧣 and @TOPublicHealth about why it is so important to #StayHome at this time to help stop the spread of #COVID19 and help #FlattenTheCurve. By heeding these instructions we can all help free up vital community resources that are being stretched thin.
Dr. de Villa: most people take 5 or 6 days to show #COVID19 symptoms, but some take 14 days. That’s why it’s important to stay home now. Learn how to protect yourself and your community: toronto.ca/COVID19 Full video: youtu.be/o_G_FWAT7BE
