The Personal Support Workers (PSW) who support our seniors with care and dignity deserve to be treated with the same respect—through fair wages and benefits. I stood with members of CUPE Local 5525 from Villa Columbo, now in Week 3 of their strike.

Specialized programs for children with special needs aren’t just about education—they’re about creating safe, inclusive spaces where every child can learn and thrive. This morning on Newstalk1010, I spoke about how Premier Ford and Minister Calandra are failing our children with

Doug Ford remarks are offensive, rooted in racism & colonial violence. We are coming from generations of unresolved treaty rights, stolen lands & broken promises. Our Nations have taken care of ourselves long before your govt existed. You are the one begging for our resources.

One child is dying every 3 days in Ontario’s care network. I’ve told the Minister, they aren’t just numbers on a ledger. They were vulnerable young people with stories of their own. Ontario’s child protection agencies are not being given the resources they need to keep kids

It was energizing to be a part of the All Out Rally for 2SLGBTQ+ Freedom today! This was a reminder to show up for each other in the name of progress and equity. To demand a world where 2SLGBTQ+ rights, refugee rights, worker rights, trans rights, and human rights are not up

We ask our children to be critical thinkers and then the Ford government censors their calls for a more just world. The Minister of Education said to keep politics out of the classroom but everything from Climate change to Black Lives Matter to Israel/Palestine to women's bodies
