We’re in for a long, hot summer 🔥 – and many renters are facing dangerously hot apartments. They need the right to stay cool and comfortable at a safe temperature in their home.

As interim leader I promised to deliver a timely review + renewal process for the NDP. I’m pleased to see it launched and led by Emilie Taman. I encourage all members, activists & progressive allies to add your ideas to build a vibrant, progressive federal party for Canada.

No one should be homeless. But in Ontario, 300,000 people could be without a home if we don’t start building affordable and missing middle housing. The time is now.

By taking over school boards, the Ford government is shutting parents and communities out of decisions that impact their kids’ futures.

Transit riders show up! We met at Dufferin and Bloor today, along with Toronto Environmental Alliance (TEA) and local Bathurst business leaders to speak loudly in favour of dedicated transit lanes.

Workers at the WSIB and Canadian Hearing Services (CHS) have returned to work with a better deal, giving them safety and stability for the years to come. This is what we can do when we stand together. Thanks to OCEU CUPE 1750 CUPE2073

The Ford government has created a crisis across Ontario’s public colleges. 10,000 jobs lost, years of cuts and underfunding, and the lowest per-student financial support in the country. Students, staff, and entire communities are paying the price.

We love our local businesses – like Harbord Bakery. It’s been in the neighbourhood since 1945, and has been run by four generations of the same family. When we support our local businesses with our time, our money, and our love, it means they’re here to stay and keep our

Fantastic to be joined by neighbours last night as we brought our Community Office to Christie Pits 🌳 Next stop for our office pop-up: Vermont Square (6-8pm), next Thursday July 31.

Out and about this past weekend at the Korea Town Street Festival! 🇰🇷 One of the best parts about our city is the diversity, culture and community on display in our neighbourhoods – just like Korea Town.

Bike lanes on Bloor St, Yonge St, and University Ave are here to stay. Riders can now have certainty that they’ll be able to travel safely from A to B around our city.

Cyclists everywhere are celebrating today’s court decision ruling that Ontario’s plan to remove bike lanes is unconstitutional because it puts bikers at increased risk of harm and death.

Today is a good day for renters, as Toronto’s new renoviction by-law comes into effect. This by-law is going to help tenants stay in their homes – find out how.

Thanks to everyone who joined our Ice Cream Social! Wonderful to chat in the summer sun and bring our community together at Jean Sibelius Square 🍦
