Who else thinks Doug Ford's unnecessary $10 Billion #Hwy413 plan should be cancelled & reinvested into our hospitals instead? ✋ RT if you agree. #StopThe413 #RepealBill124 #onpoli

The CDC recommends not always drinking beer, but when you do, drink dos equis

(1/3) Ford’s use of the notwithstanding clause for a self-serving purpose is a blatant abuse of power. He’s throwing a constitutional fit to silence his critics ahead of the 2022 election. It’s an insult to Ontarians that this is what Ford thinks is important right now. #onpoli

We are seeing patients admitted to ICU with #COVID well after shot 1 and before shot 2. One isn't vaccinated until fully vaccinated. Given the significant delay between shots 1 & 2, clear communication on how to conduct oneself b/w shots from public health leaders would help.

Got my first AZ #vaccine dose today 💪🏻🎉 Taking a cue from @LukePersaud and being intentional about not saying I’m vaccinated - it’s a two step process #science👩🏻‍🔬 – at Toronto, Ontario

#onpoli #onted #COVID19ON #OntarioisDying If you follow me and you were pissed about playgrounds and you happen to be white (like me) and you're financially secure (like me), I'm going to say this at the risk of repeating something you've heard today already: /1

Most low-wage workers don't have access to paid sick leave — workers who are women, racialized, Black, and Indigenous. Paid sick leave is a matter of racial justice. #PaidSickDaysSaveLives @fordnation xitter.cf/leadnowca/status/13616… #ONpoli

We need @fordnation @SteveClarkPC @InfraOntario to immediately stop the demolition of the Foundry buildings in the West Don Lands. They are heritage assets that belong to the people of Toronto and Ontario. cc. @CorktownTO @WestDonLands @CityPlanTO

In many places, we’ve prioritized getting vaccines to the people who need them most, first: long term care workers and residents, front line and health care workers, and Indigenous communities. Now we must imagine -what if we approached the climate crisis with equal urgency? 4/

Ontario rejected its own public health agency’s advice when it launched its colour-coded plan for...

The good news: If done quickly & decisively, green stimulus could put the world on track to keep global heating under 1.5°C. The bad news: to date, only 5% of $15 trillion in international COVID stimulus funding is committed to green initiatives. news.trust.org/item/20201027…
