It is unacceptable that anyone in this province has to make the choice between medically assisted death & waiting for affordable housing.
The affordability crisis is dire in Ontario & we must act now. 1/2

Yesterday I gave my first speech in Parliament, on Bill C-5.
I called for the government to go beyond half measures in addressing systemic racism in the criminal justice system, and to expand the bill’s scope to include decriminalization and safe supply.

Amazing to see MPs from all parties come together to take a stand against conversion therapy in Canada. This day could not come soon enough. 🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️
We're so close to hitting 6,000 signatures ! 📝🥳

Thank you to the petitioners who brought forward this call on the House to immediately halt all existing and planned construction of the coastal gas link project on Wet'suwet'en territory, ordering the RCMP to dismantle their exclusion zone and stand down.

Kitchener Centre MP @morricemike just introduced a House of Commons Petition to fast track the Canada Disability Benefit, which would 'act like a UBI for Canadians with disabilities'.
Show Mike your support for Basic Income and sign the petition today!

We haven’t been afforded many opportunities to speak *at length* about these topics and I am grateful @ReepGreen have shared their platform with all candidates willing to participate. Consider giving this a read and each out to your candidates to learn more.
Wouldn’t you like to see a #kitcon debate on the strength of our democracy, @LoveWilmot? Given the state of this election, now seems like as good a time as any. I know I’d like to discuss it with my fellow candidates.
@CarleneHawley@TimLouisKitCon@KevindupuisPPC@KitConNDP
Only some of the issues the Green Party has had in its platform for years and years, that other parties are only catching on to now.
We know what needs to be done, how, and when. Green MP's bring the bold & necessary ideas to Parliament now & work across party lines to progress.
It is time to finish the unfinished business of so many years ago:
Universal Pharmacare
Universal Childcare
Free post-secondary education
Universal Dentalcare
Radical reform of Long Term Care
Let’s get to work.

Canadians need urgent help now.
We need to:
- Declare a housing affordability and homelessness a national emergency
- Reinvest in affordable, non-profit, co-op housing
- Strengthen regulation to limit foreign investment
- Develop a strategy for rural housing challenges

If anyone has a reasonable argument against any of this, please share. Governments work when we can trust that our fellow citizens will help us enjoy an equal opportunity to achieve our individual potential by addressing the obstacles we cannot reasonably resolve individually.
Locally elected officials across the country are facing multiple unprecedented crises, and they are struggling to keep residents safe and healthy.
This election has to be a climate election.
