#IDAHOTB2023 is an opportunity to promote equality and respect for all while celebrating the resilience of 2SLGBTQI+ communities.

[PEI Liberal Opposition @LiberalCaucusPE]

We must come together as a society to move beyond tolerance and towards acceptance.
Together, we must challenge stigma to build a safer and more inclusive province where 2SLGBTQI+ communities are safe and free to be who they are, and love who they love.

[Gord McNeilly @GordMcNeillyPEI]

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia. It is an opportunity to reaffirm the equity of LGBTQ2I persons and to show our allyship by being clear and steadfast in our commitment to supporting all.

"This decision was dropped from 10,000 feet directly on the back of patients, on families, on health-care staff," @jhalperry said
“Is this the type of leadership Islanders can expect from you as the newly minted minister of health?" #peipoli

Here is a video recap of the exchange between @GordMcNeillyPEI, the Minister of Health and the Premier from the first question period in the @peileg Assembly today. #peipoli

[Gord McNeilly @GordMcNeillyPEI]

Today, I asked the Minister of Health five times if he was briefed on the unexpected closure of the ICU at Prince County Hospital. #peipoli

Here’s a video recap of our exchange ⬇️

“Why did @Health_PEI announce this under the cover of Mother’s Day weekend & days after the Throne Speech?
This move will add stress to these patients, health care system and Islanders in need of emergency services at the QEH." @GordMcNeillyPEI

Thank you for dedicating yourselves to the vital and inspirational profession of nursing.

We appreciate you all and the invaluable role you play in Island communities.
#peipoli

[PEI Liberal Opposition @LiberalCaucusPE]

As we mark #NationalNursingWeek , we recognize the tireless efforts and extraordinary commitment of all Island nurses. Your commitment and service is matched only by your compassion, critical thinking and adaptability.
@jhalperry @RobHenderson25 @GordMcNeillyPEI #peipoli

[Gord McNeilly @GordMcNeillyPEI]

As we celebrate Nurses this week take time to reach out and thank a Nurse. They provide care when hurt, compassion when needed and hope that all will be ok.
To all Island Nurses - thank you for your service and always being there.

PEI has the highest rate of household food insecurity in Canada.
“This means almost 1/4 Islanders & 1/3 Island children are going hungry. Racial inequity is also glaring with the BIPOC community having a much higher rate of household food insecurity,” @GordMcNeillyPEI #peipoli

[PEI Liberal Opposition @LiberalCaucusPE]

Today is National Day of Awareness and Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls & Gender diverse people. We remember the people who have lost their lives to gender-based violence, their families & the communities that live daily with the grief of losing loved ones.

[Gord McNeilly @GordMcNeillyPEI]

Today is MMIW2S Day. Let’s build awareness to educate and join together to denounce violence against indigenous women. As a community, take time to reflect and mourn all murdered and missing indigenous women and 2 spirited people. 💔♥️

Let's break the stigma around mental health and work together towards creating a more compassionate Island community for everyone. @jhalperry @RobHenderson25 @GordMcNeillyPEI

Mental health is just as vital as physical health, and yet it's often overlooked. This #MentalHealthWeek, let's spread awareness & prioritize our well-being. Taking a moment to practice self-care, check in with friends & family, or share your story with people you are close to.

[CMHA National @CMHA_NTL]

@InfoPEI needs to answer for why doctors continue to leave PEI. It's quite simple: in order to fix the problem, they need to know what the problem is.#peipoli
