Carney and Poilievre agree on tax cuts that even billionaires will get Because that’s who needs the extra money, right? What a dismal choice that will solve zero problems

The momentum is growing. Over 100 federal candidates have endorsed the #PalestinePlatform. Canadian politicians are understanding that it's time to concede to the demands of the people. Have your candidates endorsed the platform? VotePalestine.ca/candidates #cdnpoli

This was informative and interesting to look through. For me, the #PalestinePlatform is one that demonstrates principles. If every life matters equally, then politicians should adopt this platform. Helo out. Bring it up with your candidates today. #cdnpoli #onpoli

The #NDP has been fighting hard to raise pensions in Parliament but the Liberals have voted against it. This includes our MP here in #HumberRiverBlackCreek who has a pension that would pay thousands of dollars a month if she retired. It's time for a change. #CanadaElection2025

Did you know that the keffiyeh is explicitly in the Ontario Social Science Secondary Curriculum? It's a cultural symbol and should be permitted in schools around #onted, being protected by the Ontario Human Rights Code. #onpoli

When people say "cutting the red tape" ask, "what's the red tape"? Health and safety standards are considered "red tape" sometimes. Environmental standards are "red tape". Accessibility can be "red tape". Don't let politicians get away with slogans. Get details. #cdnpoli

Beautiful piece from nigelb (he/him) reminding us why teachers do what they do. There is so much unpaid time, often behind the scenes. #onted educationactiontoronto.com/articles/why-w…

This is crucial for ALL institutions. At a time when virality, not truth, runs politics, institutions need to be diligent and principled. Giving into rhetoric will rapidly rise this tide of disinformation & it's easy to stay silent until it's your job on the line. #onpoli

Maybe it's just the way I was raised, but when UNICEF says “The lives of nearly one million children are at stake” I think the world should stop, listen, and take decisive action to protect them.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh proposes the creation of "Canada Victory Bonds" to raise govt revenue for public services & infrastructure, saying "instead of relying solely on banks & paying debt & interest to those banks, let's pay interest to Canadians instead." #cdnpoli #elxn2025

Every human rights champion in history has faced tremendous push back from the system and severe impact on their personal lives. Its a common staple for true human rights work. #onpoli
