[Jonathan Tsao @jontsao]

Thank you @coteau and @LucilleCollard for standing up for the the Asian-Canadian community and demanding Doug Ford add anti-Asian racism to the prov anti-racism strategy. We need action from our government #StopAsianHate

[Mitzie Hunter @MitzieHunter]

Thank you to my colleagues @coteau and @LucilleCollard for introducing this important legislation to stop #antiAsianracism the @fordnation government ought to support it. #onpoli #ScarbTO

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

If passed, the bill would:

1. require the Minister responsible to consult with members and representatives of the Asian community on the anti-racism strategy.

2. require the Government to include initiatives to reduce the incidence of hate crimes in its anti-racism strategy.

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

Anti-Asian racism in Ontario has increase by 40% during the pandemic.

That’s unacceptable & Doug Ford isn’t doing anything to stop it.

That’s why I’m introducing legislation with @LucilleCollard that, if passed, would force the government to take action! #StopAsianHate  #onpoli

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

After a year of the #COVID19 pandemic, where racialized Ontarians have suffered disproportionately, the Minister of Anti-Racism @SylviaJonesMPP, who’s job it is to protect the rights of racialized people, actually brought back Carding.

Shameful! #onpoli

[Bird on the Wire Podcast @BirdOTWpodcast]

We're back with Don Valley East MPP Michael @Coteau! He joins @lisakirbie to talk about paid sick days, education and what's next for him. Then @zackbabins and @hartleywitten talk about shots - in the arm!

Out now, wherever you get podcasts, don't forget to like and subscribe!

Doug Ford & Paul Calandra are making sure that Conservative MPPs vote to defeat my bill that would guarantee 10 #PaidSickDays for all Ontarians.

Putting ideology ahead of science doesn’t bode well for our success in battling the #COVID19 3rd wave.

#onpoli #PaidSickDaysNow

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

The govt’s failure to provide paid sick leave is unconscionable is simply reprehensible.

Their votes are not against an Opposition MPP’s bill, but rather against the 83 percent of Ontarians who support #PaidSickDays.

[Josh Matlow @JoshMatlow]

Thanks to MPP Michael @coteau, and the @OntLiberal Party, for proposing legislation to provide Ontarians paid sick leave. People should not have to choose between making a living and staying home when they’re sick. It’s truly shameful the Doug Ford government voted against it.

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

These are the 55 Conservative MPPs who voted against #PaidSickDays.

They voted against protecting workers, and they voted against listening to healthcare professionals.

They voted against the 83% of Ontarians who support #PaidSickDaysNow!

#onpoli #FordMustResign #COVID19

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

Why won't the Doug Ford implement #PaidSickDays for Ontarians?

Does he think it's a handout? Is it his ideology?

In reality, #PaidSickLeave actually saves $$ because it keeps people from spreading illness so they stay healthy & out of hospitals #onpoli

An update on the vote in the legislature.

And a big thank you to everyone who reached out to their MPP

We may have lost the vote today but we will never forget who had Ontario’s back next June when members will be asking you for your vote!

#onpoli #PaidSickDays @fordnation

[Mitzie Hunter @MitzieHunter]

Disappointing @fordnation still refuses to pass #PaidSickDays by not supporting @coteau PMB 247 which grants 10 paid sick days to essential workers in Ontario.

This is the 5th straight day that the government has refused to support this life saving Bill. #PaidSickDaysSaveLives

[John Fraser @JohnFraserOS]

For the 5th sitting day in a row, MPP @coteau, asked the @OntarioPCCaucus to immediately pass Bill 247, guaranteeing 10 paid sick days for all Ontario workers.

He was denied again.

The @fordnation govt has another oppo after QP today when the bill is called for 3rd Reading.

[Jill Promoli @jillpromoli]

Today our MPPs have the chance to vote for #PaidSickDays under @coteau’s Bill 247.

The current government has defeated #PaidSickDays 20 times before.

Ontarians can’t wait. Nearly 8000 of our loved ones and neighbours have died. This was preventable. Please. It’s time. #onpoli

[Fardin @KibriaFardin]

Make it make sense.

Days in a row, a shameless leader like @fordnation continues to reject @coteau’s bill for Paid Sick Days.

Cases climb across the board and even a 13 yr old death that was completely avoidable doesn’t change this mans stance.

Crisis in Ontario. #onpoli

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

To the 83% of Ontarians who support #PaidSickDays

House Leader @PaulCalandra has indicated in Question Period that @fordnation ‘s government will not be supporting Bill 247

A dark day in Ontario when ideology conquers science

#onpoli

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

On Monday my bill for 10 paid sick days will be voted on in the Ontario Legislature.

Retweet if you support 10 paid sick days and send @fordnation a strong message.

#onpoli #PaidSickDays #PaidSickDaysSaveLives #PaidSickDaysNow

[Toronto Star @TorontoStar]

Progressive Conservatives could vote to pass Liberal MPP Michael Coteau’s paid sick leave bill on Monday and do what Ontarians expect them to do — legislate.
