Anyone else has “Phantom Meeting Syndrome” where whenever you are not in a meeting, you feel like you are playing hooky from one, and so you have this pervasive hyper-vigilance combined with guilt for no reason?

Them: Where are you from?
Me: Canada
Them: No, where are you REALLY from?
Me: ...Canada

It's not the curiosity that offends me, it's that by denying my identity, you place me outside of 'you' & who 'you' think IS Canadian.

I👏🏾 Am👏🏾 Canadian👏🏾

To @theJagmeetSingh ... as an MP across the aisle.. you need not apologize to me. I support your motion. Understand your response and look forward working together to extinguish systemic racism in all its forms... starting with, but not limited to the RCMP.

[Anna Toth @annatothtweets]

Today I learned...

(1) The 2020 Toronto Police Budget is $1.08 billion and
(2) Toronto Police Training is 24 weeks.

What could Toronto build or support by redirecting these funds.

Thank you @progresstoronto

@MAsselinAQOCI rappel qu’une politique étrangère féministe est une approche transformatrice, qui nous invite à questionner les relations de pouvoir et définir clairement les principes féministes qui guideront la diplomatie, le commerce et la défense. #CCICForum2020
