I just wrote a letter calling on our federal leaders to uphold international law and speak out against Trump’s dangerous ethnic cleansing plans for Gaza.

All people deserve to feel safe and free from hate. This weekend, a rally in Hamilton called for "mass deportation now". We must reject hate and anti-migrant ideas. We urge all Federal Party Leaders to denounce this racism and xenophobia. Sign here: https://t.co/SLMdrkFNNA

What Misogynists fail to comprehend about the "bear vs man" question is that it's not about bears.

The discussion is about violence against women. Violence that has become so common & dangerous to women that when asked this question many women chose bear, not because women think bears are not dangerous, but because women know statistically & through their own experiences just how dangerous misogynistic men are.

In Ontario, public sector nurses are quitting their positions to join private nursing agencies mostly for more hourly pay and job flexibility despite the lack of pension and benefits.

This is exactly how Doug Ford planned out his privatization scheme -

1. He froze public sector nurses' wages for years until a court deemed it unconstitutional.
2. He made staff nursing positions less appealing, causing public sector nurses to quit in droves.
3. He allowed private nursing agencies to flood the healthcare system to enrich his donors.
3. He made the public health system look dysfunctional to justify the need for more privatization.

The end result -

1. The public health sector lost thousands of nurses to private nursing agencies.
2. The public sector has to rely mainly on private nursing agencies to supply them the same nurses they lost, BUT, at triple the costs.

Neat privatization scheme #onpoli #corruption

In response to 1 Million March 4 Children protests that are scheduled to take place across Canada, ETFO strongly condemns anti-2SLGBTQ+ protests.

Any actions or events that seek to undermine the rights and dignity of the 2SLGBTQ+ community must be denounced. #onpoli #onted

If the reason we can’t have unisex bathrooms is that men aren’t trustworthy, might I suggest the problem is not really the bathrooms?

On this day in 1838, Frederick Douglass escaped to freedom and found his calling as a leading voice in the abolitionist movement.

Douglass escaped slavery by boarding a train to Havre de Grace, Maryland. He was dressed in a sailor's uniform, provided to him by Anna Murray, (he married her 12 days later, she was a free black woman in Baltimore) she also gave him part of her savings to cover his travel costs, and carried identification papers which he had obtained from a free black seaman.

He crossed the Susquehanna River by ferry at Havre de Grace, then continued by train to Wilmington, Delaware. From there he went by steamboat to "Quaker City" (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) and continued to the safe house of abolitionist David Ruggles in New York; the whole journey took less than 24 hours.

Frederick Douglass later wrote of his arrival in New York:

"I have often been asked, how I felt when first I found myself on free soil. And my readers may share the same curiosity. There is scarcely anything in my experience about which I could not give a more satisfactory answer. A new world had opened upon me. If life is more than breath, and the 'quick round of blood,' I lived more in one day than in a year of my slave life. It was a time of joyous excitement which words can but tamely describe. In a letter written to a friend soon after reaching New York, I said: 'I felt as one might feel upon escape from a den of hungry lions.' Anguish and grief, like darkness and rain, may be depicted; but gladness and joy, like the rainbow, defy the skill of pen or pencil."

Frederick Douglass first tried to escape from Freeland, who had hired him out from his owner Colonel Lloyd, but was unsuccessful. In 1836, he tried to escape from his new owner Covey, but failed again.

In 1837, Douglass met and fell in love with Anna Murray, her freedom strengthened his belief in the possibility of his own.

Once he had arrived, he sent for Murray to follow him to New York; she arrived with the necessary basics for them to set up home. They were married on September 15, 1838, by a black Presbyterian minister eleven days after his arrival in New York.
