What if the person next to you is paying a different price for the same thing? An algorithm decided that. 🏷️💵 Watch to the end to find out how – then go to BanPredatoryPricing.ca and tell every Conservative MPP to vote YES to banning predatory pricing.
Grocery prices are up 30% in five years. Families are spending $1,000 more just to buy the same food. And now grocery giants and tech companies are teaming up to use AI-powered algorithms and electronic shelf labels to charge you even more for the same carton of eggs, based on your data, your searches, what you click. This is called surveillance pricing, and I'm bringing a vote to ban it in Ontario. Manitoba's NDP government banned it. Doug Ford can too. He just has to choose people over corporations.

Our hearts are with the families, victims, and the entire community after the horrific mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge. We are grateful to first responders and health workers for their brave interventions. Canada mourns with you all.

Trump boasts the US is in firm “control” of Venezuela, his proxy better “fall into line” & other countries are at risk of invasion. This is a blatant violation of nations’ sovereignty, military aggression & political bullying. Canada must take a strong, principled position now.

I am calling on the Minister to summon the Israeli Ambassador and demand a formal written explanation. Anything less risks normalizing the mistreatment of Canadian parliamentarians and citizens abroad.

I'd like a budget that satisfies Canadians, not one that satisfies Donald Trump.

CORRECTION: the NDP has NOT decided to support the Liberals’ budget. We are voting NO today on a Conservative amendment that is totally unacceptable, calling for massive public service cuts, more pipelines & austerity.
Vote coming up in HoC tonight. Looks like Carney govt. will survive, at least this week: NDP MPs will vote with government on first confidence vote on budget, per Canadian Press apple.news/AmS1uZdpURmaWiLOg…

Public service workers are under attack from prov & fed gov’ts. Today, I stood in solidarity with OPSEU 109 & CUPW 566 workers. Our communities depend on strong public services—not a narrow business model that puts profit before people. @OPSEU @cupw

New Democrats have supported flight attendants from the beginning in their pursuit of fair pay. It’s absurd they are expected to work for free. It’s time the law was changed so all time spent in service is paid.
Breaking News - *** #FlightAttendants regularly work unpaid. Carney’s Liberals show a clear lack of values by leaving workers without protection against free labour. @PattyHajdu it’s time to change the labour code! The @ndp stand in #solidarity with workers. #unpaidworkwontfly

I am gravely alarmed by the use of force by the United States against Iran today. This is a dangerous escalation in a region already on the edge – and a direct threat to international peace and security.   There is a growing risk that this conflict could rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world.   I call on Member States to de-escalate and to uphold their obligations under the @UN Charter and other rules of international law.   At this perilous hour, it is critical to avoid a spiral of chaos.   There is no military solution.  The only path forward is diplomacy.  The only hope is peace.

Find someone to 'attack' you the way Canada has 'attacked' the oil industry. Alberta has never produced so much oil, and the industry has never made so much profit. This repetitive talking point that Alta has grievances cuz oil was suppressed is pure fantasy. #cdnecon #cdnpoli
Poilievre said that a decade of Liberal attacks on Alberta’s oil and gas sector have brought tensions to a boiling point nationalpost.com/news/canada…

Let’s be clear, if Mark Carney wins a super-majority and Pierre Poilievre is the only one across from him, Canadians will get the worst of both—and working people will pay the price. The NDP have always been there to hold governments accountable and work hard for you.

Action on affordability: real rent control, grocery price caps, and stronger EI. Tax fairness: billionaires paying what they owe. A firm line on trade: no deals that threaten health care, workers’ rights, or Indigenous rights.

Because budgets are choices—and NDP MPs are the only ones choosing to protect what makes Canada, Canada. In London-Fanshawe, Lindsay Mathyssen is the only one who will fight for you in Ottawa!
