Ontario Labour Minister @DavidPiccini tells @MooreintheAM about the province offering parental leave for adoption and surrogacy. https://t.co/vumh6GZlDf
We are taking bold steps to support workers, women, and families with new proposed legislation.
From creating a 16-week job-protected leave for adoptive parents and surrogacy families, to ensuring properly fitting PPE for women in all trades, and introducing a 27-week job-protected leave for workers with serious illnesses—our government is building a future where no one has to choose between their health, family, or career. Together, we’re making Ontario the best place to live, work, and raise a family.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Empire Club in #Toronto.

Great start to the week with the Conceivable Dreams reception, where I had the opportunity to highlight our government’s $150M investment and new tax credit that will connect more families to government funded fertility services, close to home.
A very warm welcome at @IVF4ON’s Queen’s Park reception today!
