@misterbumface @chantellfaithh @CP24 Okay that one was pretty funny tho

[Liz Patrick @die304]

@misterbumface @chantellfaithh @CP24 How would anyone know it is a joke? No clues like it being funny or anything 🤷‍♀️

[PROOF @proofcanada]

It is clear that social assistance in Ontario is far from adequate. In light of the high rate of food insecurity & record inflation since, the announced increase to #ODSP is far from enough & the lack of increase & indexation for #OntarioWorks is deeply concerning.#OnPoli 🧵(1/5)

@KelliDPowers @theJagmeetSingh You are paying a small amount now in taxes shared amongst all taxpayers so that when you /WILL/ need it as you age you aren’t gouged to the point you lose your car, your home, and go bankrupt trying to save your life. Think about the future and others

So the @New Yorker has fired me, effective immediately. I’m speaking with the union about potentially filing a grievance on the termination. But here are some things that I will say….

BOTH SIDES OF THE HOLOCAUST? WTF

Ontario...if you haven't had to have bloodwork done lately, or screening tests, you're in for quite a shock. 86$ dropped at LifeLabs today thanks to @fordnation taking cancer screening blood work off the list of OHIP covered test. Just the beginning of privatization by stealth.

Elon Musk keeps tweeting that he loves free speech. So here's a thread with just a few of the countless examples showing he couldn't care about it less (🧵)

[John Fraser @JohnFraserOS]

The @CTVW5 revelation that @fordnation called a hospital CEO to complain about a doctor’s tweets, which resulted in that doctor getting fired, is deeply concerning.

Please see my letter to the Standing Committee on Social Policy:

@KarryVollmer @jennyleeshee Sure, if that’s a hill you want to die on, it seems better to me still than stressing the hell out of teachers

Brrr! It's officially cold out there #LdnOnt. If you have to venture out today, make sure to bundle up with lots of layers.
If you see a fellow Londoner in need of help & a warm space, contact our outreach partner London Cares at [phone].

@KarryVollmer @jennyleeshee The board should have let her have a snow day, like she is asking

[Liz Patrick @die304]

@SteveClarkPC @fordnation How about you reinstate the 2% yearly maximum rent increase on new buildings? Nothing tells me my government doesn’t care about poor people in a housing crisis more than removing existing rent protections so that they can be gouged out of having a roof over their heads

@KarryVollmer @jennyleeshee lesson plans don’t just come from the air, she has been given no notice during working hours and suddenly has to lead a class the next morning online.
Imagine being put in front of 30+ kids without any plans or uploaded worksheets and have them “learn”. Use your empathy please

[Jagmeet Singh @theJagmeetSingh]

Workers have put themselves at risk every day. Some have gotten sick & even died.

The rich have made billions, while Cdns struggle to make ends meet.

The system is rigged in favour of the rich & powerful.

And, Liberals & Conservatives don't have the courage to take them on.

FACT: Ontario's Bill 124 is nothing but wage suppression legislation unfairly targeting nurses & health workers at a time when we need them the most (in the middle of a raging pandemic). It is worsening our health staffing crisis. The Ontario government must #RepealBill124 ASAP!

[Birgit Umaigba-Omoruyi @birgitomo]

Sorry to interrupt your morning but I have to tell you that 3 of my colleagues worked 16hrs last night as no nurse showed up to replace them. As you know, nurses are taught not to "abandon" patients. They had 1 code blue, no breaks, will be back for another shift tonight.

One year ago, a violent attack on our Capitol made it clear just how fragile the American experiment in democracy really is. Here’s my statement on what the anniversary means, and what we need to do today.

Ontario to stop collecting COVID-19 numbers from school boards, suspend reporting of cases in schools
