There are no “special” needs, there are just needs. As people we have many needs in common, but we also have specific needs as individuals that others might not. They’re not special. They’re just needs. And they ALL deserve to be met. #onpoli

OMG!

Unacceptalbe!

Reality check: With voter turnout dropping to 43%, just 17.8% of Ontario’s total eligible voters actually voted for the Conservatives, who now have 100% control of the province for 4 more years. If that doesn’t tell you our democracy is broken, I don’t know what will. #onpoli

So, let's see...current electoral process was developed when there were two parties. Times have changed, 1st past post does not represent the voters' intentions. We need electoral reform. People must be free to choose who they want! Don't blame the parties, blame the process!

43% turnout in Ontario 41% votes for Doug Ford He has a majority with less than 18% of votes. This is not democracy.

Many thanks to all the candidates who put their name forward. Public life is never easy! Congratulations to those who were victorious yesterday. Please, please, please could the legislature truly be the house where we come together to serve ALL!

Has been for a long time. We are no longer a two party society. We need equitable representation! We need all elected officials to work together!

I want to reaffirm my commitment to fighting for persons w/ disabilities in Ontario. We need to double #ODSP & prioritize the implementation of the Accessibility for Ontarians w/ Disabilities Act. I will hold the Ford govt accountable until it is done. #NAAW2022 #onpoli

I will never accept the excuse that "we don't have enough resources" to eradicate poverty when billionaires are trying to colonize space. We lack the will, not the resources.

My brother's #LTC managed to keep #COVID at bay all this time, but now, more and more residents are contracting #COVID. My brother now has #COVID...in my opinion, no lockdowns in #LTC are going to stop the spread when there are no more restrictions for the other citizens.

An all too real experience for so many. And then they are seen as "problem" people when they advocate strongly. #Caregivers are an extremely important sector in society but rarely respectfully acknowledged.

I wish more folks understood disabilities can happen at any time in a person's life. They can be temporary, episodic, or permanent, while varying in severity. When you are not prioritizing accessibility, you are excluding people, whether you realize it or not.

I meant to add,..wish so much that CTV didn't block streaming. Haven't been able to watch for so long. Miss CTV, but not willing to be forced to buy a tv subscription. Enough other options. You lose CTV.

5% doesn't cut it. Then adding future increases to inflation means more legislated poverty. When will people living with disabilities stop being devalued. We contribute to society we deserve to be respected and not forced to live in poverty because of disability. It could be you

Jill Irwin @enoughisenough🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈🇮🇪🇵🇸 OntarioHealthCoal'n Any person, not just any elder, can be on the brink of becoming an ALC patient. Anyone is one accident, stroke, or disease away from being in that bed. Everyone needs to be enraged by this. Where are all the freedom protesters now that real freedoms are being taken away? #onpoli

Thank you @JoelHardenONDP Monique Taylor Jessica Bell Chandra Pasma Lise Vaugeois for trying to bring change for so many.
