You’re sitting on a surplus of billions of dollars, actively underspending in health care from your own budget, and continue having the audacity to demand more money from the Feds? #onpoli #cdnpoli

The Pride flag is not only a symbol - it makes being a part of the LGBTQ2+ community less stigmatized, opening the Catholic community up to more honest conversations. I want to sincerely thank every trustee who voted in support of this motion.❤️🏳️‍🌈 thestar.com/local-milton/opi…

Cool - quick math shows your rent idea would cost at least $23 billion - how are you paying for this? And maybe more importantly how would you ensure this cost doesn’t result in higher rents now that landlords know renters have an extra $5000? #Elxn44

Since Justin Trudeau became Prime Minister, your rent has gone up $4,200/yr. We will give $5,000 to people who rent and close loopholes that protect and allow rich developers to build unaffordable apartment buildings. #Elxn44 #cdnpoli

An inside look at the power & influence of Ford’s developer friends who are pushing for a new highway that will unleash another generation of sprawl and raze 2,000 acres of prime farmland. Doing so will make this small group of speculators very rich. thestar.com/news/investigati…

.@DorisGrinspun CEO of Registered Nurses' Assoc. of Ontario has called it senicide. LTC experts emphasise that the solutions to dramatically reduce COVID-19 deaths in #LTC are clear, available & implementable and would have an immediate effect. Time to put them in place. #cdnpoli

Clearly some #ONpoli-ticians don’t have the diligence or insight to make good decisions for our neighbourhoods (or even themselves) during this pandemic. The narcissistic desire for a maskless photo-op risks spreading #COVID19 wider through communities. flip.it/PV4w9J

Nobody wants an election. Minority parliaments can be frustrating but they also present an opportunity to make big ideas happen to improve the lives of Canadians. I hope we get back to that work.

“I don’t want an election,” said Deputy PM @cafreeland. “The motion that was put forward, you know, it is a motion that really drips with no confidence in the government…I really believe at the end of the day common sense is going to prevail and we're going to get through this.”

He didn’t run on his ability to evade paying taxes. He ran as a “successful businessman” and, of course, he lied. He’s a fraud and he thinks you’re a sucker.

Our social safety net is no longer fit for purpose, and should be reinvented through a basic income that guards against moral luck, guarantees dignity, and ensures no one is left behind. Glad to have helped lead caucus efforts to push this idea forward. thestar.com/politics/federal…
