Repeat after me. A habitable planet is more important than the profits of a few fossil fuel companies. Pass it on. #ActOnClimate

I find it hard to believe I used to just answer my phone when it rang. No caller ID. No idea who was calling. Just picked it up and said “hello” like a goddam daredevil.

Not all men but a husband drugged & raped his wife for a decade. Not all men but 100 local men. Not all men but her neighbour, a nurse, police officer, and councillor. Not all men but thousands of men saw a post to rape her, not one man reported it. Stop telling us not all men.

When seeking justice for multiple rapes is reframed as ‘seeking revenge’, you know you’re governed by abusers and criminals.

Israel is murdering people lined up for food. Israel is murdering people as they line up for food.

This is stupid. This is enraging. There's no reason for it. Municipal parks are for the people. Housed or not, Haligonian or not, Canadian or not. The city has established that it can not serve its population. Instead of addressing it, they serve us less. They should be ashamed.

i will never in my life forget these atrocities that israel has committed/is committing against the palestinian people—and the utter cowardice and imperial complicity of many western nations in not only allowing such cruelty, but continuing to fund it and “justify” it

Sarah Jama was elected, winning every single poll, for who she is, what she stands for, & how she does it. Every poll. Her positions were known then. The ONDP's removal of Sarah from the party & shutting down of emails, websites, etc. is a direct affront to the democratic process

"Cost of living" is one of the most depraved terms we have in our society. It kind of just says it all right there. We don't value life. We do put a price on it though.

11000 deaths. For a healthcare system that asked repeatedly for the Ford government to respond. Willful neglect, resulting in deaths.

Conservatives, followed by Liberals, have the absolute worst records in Parliament on housing. Almost 20 years of votes they've voted together many times, manufacturing the housing crisis.

Artists of all ilks…DO NOT call your art ‘content’. An AI can produce endless content. It cannot produce art. You are an artist. Artists don’t make content. They make ART.

A truck is not a speech. A horn is not a voice. An occupation is not a protest. A blockade is not freedom, it blocks the liberty of all. A demand to overthrow a government is not a dialogue. The expression of hatred is not a difference of opinion. A lie is not the truth.

Pierre Poilievre is pretending. He doesn’t work for you. When he was in government for 9 years he sold-off 800,000 affordable homes to rich investors. Now, it’s obvious why. pressprogress.ca/big-real-es…

We masked in oncology for decades … until now. Because we’ve gone backwards in infection control. Imagine being able to do all of the things we can do to treat cancer and piss it away like this.

By all means, strengthen the rules, but Ontarians deserve a government that actually follows them. #ONpoli

A shortage of land is not the cause of the housing crisis. Experts know this. Analysts know this. Developers know this. The Premier’s own Housing Affordability Taskforce - the industry experts he hand picked to give him advice on housing - put this in writing. The Auditor-General confirmed and affirmed this. Her note: “there was no need to build in the Greenbelt, because “a shortage of land isn’t the cause” of the crisis. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/….
