This Tweet from Deirdre Pike she/her/they/them regarding last Thursday's meeting with Hamilton Police and a handful of members of Hamilton's 2SLGBTQIA+ Community is a betrayal and breaches the trust of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community members who came to the meeting.

Unionize.

This is no accident. It is not the case that resources cannot be allocated here. It is not the case that this pandemic healthcare crisis emerged all of a sudden yesterday. There needs to be an inquiry, intervention, accountability. Lives are at stake. thespec.com/news/hamilton-…

The practice of driving Indigenous persons to the middle of nowhere and abandoning them (so called "Starlight Tours") is a serious, life-threatening crime, and must be treated as such. I stand with Kiashke Zaaging Anishinaabek in their fight for justice. shorturl.at/lrBD9

All of Canada needs to stop what they are doing, spare a thought for the child whose jawbone was found on the grounds of the Qu’Appelle Indian Residential School in Lebret, Saskatchewan. Bone is about 125 years old, Sask coroner says. Child was btwn 4 to 6 years. FSIN

So they spend months developing an encampment protocol that envisions those living outside as inherent threats to the public, yet are open to the idea of having people sign up to "host" the same people like pets.

No one, no one, has said encampments are a solution to homelessness. No document, no delegation, no op-ed, no research paper, no staff member, no advocate, literally no one. Many have said housing, support, shelter spaces, care, without persecution are necessary for those outside

USW 1005 had the great pleasure of meeting with Ontario NDP MPP Lise Vaugeois to discuss strategies to ensure justice for workers killed on the job and to better protect injured workers from Doug Ford WSIB cuts. USW District 6 OFL

Sounds like terrible customer service from Hazelton's Gift Baskets !

We have an AG report detailing corruption. The provincial government helping developers get rich, while people suffer in our underresourced healthcare system, while people are living outside, while our education system is in need. What is the consequence? Who is calling for one?

This is a deeply troubling & massively dangerous move - Sarah Jama is a necessary & strongly supported voice - what my party the Ontario NDP must understand is that 1st this move doesn't change that support - and 2nd they just handed the right a gift. A sad sad day.

As the RCMP investigates these shady deals that involve some prominent Hamilton labour, developer and ex city council members - Ford back tracks on urban boundary expansion. Like the Greenbelt, this is only just beginning, much more will come of this as the RCMP does its work.

The framing of Sarah Jama breaking the “trust” of the NDP caucus is interesting because her views about Israel-Palestine have stayed consistent to before her being elected — and even before winning the NDP nomination.

Statement condemning the Ontario NDP for the removal of Sarah Jama from Caucus ----- It was with sadness and frustration that the Hamilton and District Labour Council read that our Member of Provincial Parliament, Sarah Jama, has been removed from the Ontario NDP Caucus.

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

Davide Mastracci Difficult = unwilling to read a statement crafted by staff with an apology in it during the censure debate 🤠🤠

The Hamilton Police Services Board released the following statement last night. In sum, on the heels of the City's appointment of Anjali Menezes to the Board, the Province has filled its vacant seat by appointing Fred Bennink, who resigned from the Board on November 3. #HamOnt

Police Services Board Member and elected City Councillor who asks about the Police Budget is somehow worthy of complaint and investigation?! This flailing reaction to basic inquiry into the Police budget should tell people a lot about what goes on here. Manipulation & silencing.
