Yesterday isn't soon enough! Locally, we've got a majority of renters. Many are seniors, folks on ODSPoverty and starting families with little ones. This isn't just the ✔️thing to do, its good for community health AND the prov's wallet. More A/C less heat stroke, ER visits etc.

Mamdani’s NYC Democratic Primary victory has people talking about some of his progressive ideas. Surely access to healthy food especially in food desserts is a public service! #NDP perspectivesjournal.ca/municipal-groc…

Prime Minister Mark Carney promised “caps, not cuts,” but this week’s 15% budget slash is austerity by another name. These cuts will hurt the public services Canadians rely on. Read more: psacunion.ca/psac-raises-al…

Did you know Air Canada’s flight attendants work thousands of hours for free. They ONLY get paid when the flight is in motion. Join me and tell Air Canada: Unpaid work is a true crime. unfaircanada.com SHAME!

He has to stop trying to get the Prime Minister to endorse his stupid tunnel. Let’s focus on serious nation-building projects like homes, hospitals, schools, and start strengthening our local procurement policies to support Ontario industries.
