Glad our MPP for "Community X" is aware of the area he serves when he blindly copies and pastes a government-provided tweet.

Happy Labour Day! 


In 30 years, we will celebrate this day with gratitude that we can all benefit from a green economy, paid sick days for all, a basic income, and the stabilization of the gig economy. Let’s get there together.

Since taking office more than two years ago, Premier Doug Ford has made a long series of policy and funding moves that have worsened — not improved — the already underfunded and overloaded health care system in Ontario, @reggcohn writes. #ONpoli https://t.co/ELENr9GrSH

[Justice For Workers Barrie @FairWagesBarrie]

Join us Saturday for a safe (masks and physical distancing) rally/protest for paid sick days at Meridian Place (along Simcoe Street). Bring a sign and/or leave your message with chalk. https://t.co/eezissn1pW #PaidSickDaysSaveLives

Hey @Sflecce:

People are asking for a *funded* plan to safely reopen schools with smaller classes and more staff.

This is not that.

Apparently Premier Ford & Minister Elliot were unaware of the lack of air conditioning in LTC homes?

Here is a clip from July 2018 specifically on lack of air conditioning issue & asking for changes to LTC homes.

Frankly, I’m sick of the “Aw-Shucks-Uncle-Dougie” routine. Didn’t know? How dare you!? You have an entire Ministry dedicated to #LTC - there’s nothing you shouldn’t know - especially something basic like this!!

This year, Injured Workers Day (June 1st) will be taking place online. 11am on Facebook, Youtube, and in your browser at https://t.co/HWrZgl2lAr

There are thousands of workers in our community who can’t afford to stay home when they are sick because they don’t have paid sick days. This is bad for workers and bad for public health. ALL workers need paid sick days NOW @douglasdowney and @fordnation! #PaidSickLeaveSavesLives

[Justice For Workers Barrie @FairWagesBarrie]

“As thousands of workers return to their jobs with the reopening of retail stores and other businesses, let’s recognize the sacrifices they are making and commit to fighting with them for better wages, workplace protections and supports.” https://t.co/uCpI3mNIfw via @barrietoday

New from me: The Ministry of Labour has not upheld a single COVID-19 work refusal, data shows.

The ministry has also set up a work refusal "advisory committee" leading to complaints that health and safety inspectors are being "handcuffed"

Today is the National #DayofMourning, a day to remember those who were killed or injured while on the job, and fight for all workers.

@1979amcconcord joins me for a new episode of Struggle in the Suburbs. We chat about the essential value and importance of low-wage workers, organizing in cottage country and not going back to the status quo. https://t.co/lUNEAOwdV1 @WorkersAC @fairwagesnow @OFLabour

You can't make this stuff up. On Apr 17 @fordnation+@Sflecce said 21,000 new iPads were on the way to families in need to support online learning. The truth is school boards won’t get a single extra device. They took credit for devices already owned/distributed by school boards😡

Condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of former Barrie councillor, MPP and MP Aileen Carroll. Politics may divide us, but the desire to improve people's lives – as exemplified by Mrs. Carroll – is what unites us. @ontario_liberal @BSOMLibsON @barrie_pla

Conservatives just voted to cancel the GO TTC fare discount, which will cost GO riders who use the TTC $720 more a year. Ford is not a friend to commuters.

[The ONDP of BSOM @bsom_ondp]

Doug Ford and the PCs are taking hundreds of dollars right out of the pockets of local commuters. https://t.co/V52AkvYwae
