Said Happy Birthday to Dennis Skinner who is 87 today and he replied “it’s never happy when the Tories are in charge Tory Boy, now piss off!” Almost 49 years we’ve been in Parliament together and he’s as beastly as ever.

For those of you looking for some excitement this Saturday night, I did my best to test out the Ontario Conservatives’ claim that the province can get transit built faster than the city, an argument central to their contentious upload plan thestar.com/news/gta/2019/…

Scottish Labour will extend free bus travel to under 25s. But we will go further. We will build a free bus network to serve the whole of Scotland.

My favourite moment from the Premier John Horgan visiting #NorthDelta last week was when he stopped to visit the seniors playing cards. Seniors were shocked to see the Premier of BC sitting with them. They mentioned its something they never would see in India. #manofthepeople

Here's what happens when HEU members working in seniors' care from across B.C. learn that #bcpoli has just passed labour code amendments that include successorship protections. So important to protect seniors and workers from the damage of contract flipping! #bchealth

This is just one example of Toronto’s public transit workers showing appreciation for our best asset—our passengers. Thank you for your service and big heart, Jason! #transportation #Toronto

We did not take down the Gardner east to have billboards like this on Lakeshore Boulevard. Shame on Pattison signs for allowing it!

Standing room only to tell Doug Ford to go packing on the Ontario Line. This community already went through in detail its wants and needs for relief line. Ford’s determined to shred all of it. Thx Peter Tabuns @petertabuns.bsky.social Paula Fletcher for organizing the #tordan fightback.

Politicians can work from home. My brother drives subway. I asked him how he was handling covid-fear. "it is essential that I go to work so nurses and grocery store cashiers can do their part." Forget stories of toilet paper hoarders. People are stepping up This is who we are

Thank you to @MatthewGreenNDP for asking the federal government these important questions. As MP Green said, public transit systems need federal emergency funding now.

Story about Metrolinx pulling out of plan to donate land for a community hub in Jane-Finch is provoking outrage among the public and political opposition. NDP and Liberals are calling on the government to direct Metrolinx to change course.
