Peel = $19.80
Niagara = $18.90
Ottawa = $18.60
Hamilton = $17.20

Ontario's minimum wage isn't a living wage...it's a starvation wage.

One thing I don't want any of us to feel compelled to do after the "hard-working immigrants" comment from the Ontario Premiere is to think that we have to spill the traumas our families went through/are going through to prove how messed up the comment was.

The creation of the the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation has sparked hope for positive change, but it has also ignited feelings of trepidation on whether real, concrete action to improve the lives of Indigenous people will emerge. @OliviaBowden__ https://t.co/bV6GCsltMe

@Kitsune00000 @farrahsafiakhan And who determines whether it was ‘as bad’? Unfortunately, men often do when they shouldn’t. The point is whether she felt heard and respected in that space and that clearly wasn’t the case.

Ontario Human Rights Commission statement on vaccination requirements. People who cannot be vaccinated must be accommodated. But a “singular belief” or personal preference is not protected under the Human Rights Code. https://t.co/1RXYOnwAp6

The world has administered 6 billion doses of COVID vaccines to 3.4 Billion people

For people waiting for more data before getting the shot

$600M wasted on a pseudo-election should be a reminder why #electoralreform needs to one of our top priorities. Along with #Indigenous rights & #reconciliation, #wealthtax, #greennewdeal, and #equity & #antiracism. #Election44 #ElectionCanada #elxn44vote #cdnpoli #Canada

Both saddened and angered by this. Every Mississaugan - every Canadian - has the fundamental right to practice their faith in peace.

This kind of act isn’t tolerated in our city. My thoughts are with the family & anyone else affected by this incident. https://t.co/l6nrLnOSPi

To address systemic Anti-Black Racism we first have to accept that all Canadian institutions sit on the foundation of the legacy of slavery and function to contain, expel and/ or exterminate Black people. Data without the willingness to disrupt this legacy will only be data.
