The Conservative strategy of stigma and fear didn’t work 10 years ago & it won’t work now.

The way we end this crisis is with a compassionate & comprehensive approach that uses every single tool we have.

That’s our plan to support Canadians & save lives.

Wishing all the father’s, a wonderful day, may you feel loved and valued, today and always!

It requires us to talk to one another to get to the heart of this. Building bridges is by no means simple and takes real time and effort. It’s a long-game with a commitment to creating foundations to live safely alongside one another and to grow -everywhere. 8/end.

As we grieve the children of Uvalde today, we should take time to recognize that two years have passed since the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer. His killing stays with us all to this day, especially those who loved him.

"I am reminded of a conversation with a patient who said that having Black staff present during her admission enabled her to feel safer in this environment. Representation matters."
