Anyway I hope that there are residential school survivors who appreciate this day. And I appreciate settlers doing their best to learn about & support Indigenous people in their community & the country in general. I hope together we can pressure politicians to do the right thing.
What I hate about Truth & Reconciliation Day is how the government and politicians, who have power to make real change, have encouraged everyday Canadians to think reconciliation is achieved through individual capitalist consumption. Buying orange shirts and donuts, for example.
My GenZ kid:
Mom, I might go buy a phone from another network so I have data.
Me: Do you have cash?
GenZ: Shit. Does that mean I have to go to the bank?
Me: Yes. Inside. To a teller.
GenZ: Omg, this is so much work!!
Me: Rofl
(waiting to see if she actually does buy a phone lol)

This was never about men vs women like some folks twist the narrative. This was about an innocent man being falsely framed as DV and SA perpetrator, when the actual abuser was riding high on metoo.
Let's celebrate true womenhood in Camille Vasquez and Dr. Curry.

@OntarioPCParty Also in #onpoli news today:
Longtime @OntarioPC MPP Lisa MacLeod received a $44,000 top up from her Ottawa-area riding association over three years, including money for housing, over & above the taxpayer-funded housing allowance for non-GTA MPPs.

The @OntarioPCParty now promising to raise #ODSP rates by 5%, yet the Ford government didn't actually put this $450M/yr item in the budget it tabled just 10 days ago.
(Doug Ford & Finance Minister said they'd table identical budget if re-elected.) #onpoli https://t.co/6sfBANn1hY
Dear news media,
When seeking reaction to campaign promises on ODSP etc RECIPIENTS MUST SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.
Some privileged activists claim to speak for recipients when they are actually aligned with a political party.
If an ODSP activist endorsed either NDP or OLP plans...
Trudeau: Canadians need $2000 a months to survive:
Ontario NDP/Liberal leaders: WE HEARD YOU GUYS and weโre going to raise ODSP to $1400/month bc the PC refuses to! ๐๐คฌ

Again: Anonymous does not ask for donations. Any Anon account asking for donations are not involved in our collective action against the Russian government, and Putin.
We find it disheartening & sick that any account would try to take advantage of people suffering.
Absolutely disgusting comparison. You're incredibly disrespectful towards Ukraine people and the war they fight. Why am I not surprised, you're American. Stay in your lane.
