People deserve to know scientists are pointing to immediate economic system change action because they're detecting warning signs of a fully completed mass extinction on Earth within decades. 🧵

FOUND REGALIA: Specific city pending but these gorgeous dresses are in Oklahoma. From storage unit that was considered abandoned & resold, to a Matriarch wanting to get them back to the original owners.

Must have proof that these are yours. DM & I’ll connect you 🙏🏼

I'll just take this time to remind everyone that Canada's women's team has a World Cup in 7 months. They're the reigning Olympic gold medallists and are currently ranked 7th in the world.

I’m going to say it: I like paying taxes in exchange for a properly managed health care and education system and other government services. I don’t want money back, I want ambulances to come on time.

[Jessica Bell @JessicaBellTO]

Wow - the PC government just shut down committee hearings on Bill 23, the most sweeping land-use planning bill in years. The City of Toronto was next up to speak about the bill’s impact on Canada’s largest city. Now they are shut out. #onpoli #bill23

Ontario’s new housing bill would be devastating for people’s quality of life in Ottawa but developers will really like it #Ottnews #Ottawa #ONPoli https://t.co/ZviieBpo0p

On Friday, Ontario Premier Doug Ford broke his promise to not open up the protected Greenbelt to development. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to bleak news these days for the province’s environmental protections. #onpoli 🧵

[Emma McIntosh @EmmaMci]

Again, huge news, dumped late on a Friday. This will reshape the communities people live in for years to come. No opportunity to ask the minister questions about it.

The approximate annual cost for the raise requested by CUPE is $264m.
The $200 per child bribe Lecce recently gave out cost around $365m.
The license plate renewal fee brought in approximately $1b each year.

🚨Here's your chance to support @osbcucscso frontline Eduction Workers🚨

This GoFundMe is for grocery 💵 for the workers Ford is forcing to use food banks.

We've contacted CUPE & will give them the funds to give to members in need.

I cannot stress enough how critical this moment is. If governments in Canada can smash the constitution and legislate away the right to strike, collective bargaining rights are dead.

If collective bargaining rights die, workers across the country are goners.

That means you.

Shein has a $70 billion valuation because middle class and upper class people are buying hauls in the hundreds of dollars regularly, while hiding behind poor people in defense of their choices.

[Cora Harrington @CoraCHarrington]

“You’re blaming poor people for Shein!”

Listen, poor people are not to blame for the rise of Shein, because poor people are, presumably, not making hauls.

Your work wardrobe or occasional party dress is not why they currently have a $70 billion valuation.

[Tyler Meredith @tylermeredith]

When you think of where Ottawa will be in 25 yrs, it takes leadership, experience and - most importantly - ambition to get there.

Only 1 candidate in this year’s mayoral election knows what it takes and has a real plan. For now and future.

Ontario hospitals are spending millions on temp nurses due to staffing shortages.

Bill 124 caping nursing salaries has resulted in hospitals using tax dollars to pay private companies who are charging us 2-4x a nurse's salary for each shift.

How is this fiscally conservative?

[Sam Hersh @SamHersh01]

I'm so fucking terrified reading this. This isn't what should be happening. We know this.

I have a couple of minor chronic medical issues and no insurance.

This would severely impact my quality of life in a negative way.

Net Zero 2050 doesn't mean much if society has collapsed by 2040.
