Pay attention Ontarians - Doug Ford is using taxpayers' money to fight nurses in court while planning to privatize surgeries. Things are going according to his plan; starve public healthcare, make it look dysfunctional, and then bring in privatized healthcare.

We must stop him!

Breaking News: Sri Lanka’s prime minister, Mahinda Rajapaksa, resigned in the face of unrest over a crippling economic crisis. It was unclear if the move would satisfy protesters. https://t.co/erDQythl1w

If universities are choosing to keep mask mandates until the end of school year, doesn't it make sense for school boards to advocate for same?

Oh my god.

The reported attack came despite Russia agreeing to a 12-hour pause in hostilities to allow refugees to evacuate a number of towns and cities. https://t.co/nJO09qQ8Ed

If you think Black and Indigenous people would get away with urinating on tombs at the National War Memorial, defacing a statue of Terry Fox & displaying nazi logos, then you are so not paying attention. We are taking notes......

[Toronto District School Board @tdsb]

This weekend, we have witnessed symbols of hate across Canada.

We cannot be silent about it.

These events remind us of the importance of educating about human rights and equity in our schools.

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

Serious Question: Can someone please tell me what defacing Canadian hero Terry Fox’s statue AND defacing the Canadian flag with swastikas has to do with vaccine mandates?

[Birgit Umaigba-Omoruyi @birgitomo]

The convoy of healthworkers putting their lives at risk every single day to save others, irrespective of their anti-public health choices, is worth supporting. Not that convoy disrupting the peace of the nation and using confederate flags to spread hate.

[CBC Toronto @CBCToronto]

How's this for heartwarming? A viewer sent us this photo of a construction worker who walked a woman home from the subway station to make sure she got back safely. Toronto the Good, indeed. (Photo submitted by Nick. P.)

There’s something so disturbing about hearing the “omicron is mild” narrative and then having to go work in the emergency department to admit patients to the ICU with omicron because they can’t breathe.

Mild, for whom?

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

Horrific News: Ava-Mae, a 5 year old Ontario girl, has died of COVID. Meanwhile, the number of children being hospitalized with Omicron is rising.

If your response is to ask if they had pre-existing conditions, please just stop.

No child should be sick. No child should die.
