@CityFredGov I just watched a man using a wheel chair sit, stuck in the snow/ice, until someone ramped their car on the sidewalk to push him.We need to do better than this. Differently abled folk need to be able to navigate this city with as much ease as able bodied folk. Period.

A #PrimeDay reminder that Jeff Bezos is a "prime" example of a pandemic profiteer

He has increased his worth by an excess of $97 Billion on the backs of workers & Cdns

All while Justin Trudeau has allowed Amazon to pay $0 in taxes

It's time the ultra-rich pay their fair share

[Jagmeet Singh @theJagmeetSingh]

On #OrangeShirtDay we remember the horrible toll of residential schools.

How Indigenous children were stripped from their families, language, culture and way of life.

Today, we not only remember the harms of the past, we commit to justice for the future.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but you can be fiscally responsible & still protect the environment, women’s health rights, LGBTQ2+ populations, food security, etc. These are not mutually exclusive. We don’t have to choose between the economy & human rights. #notsorryaboutit

I’m curious about the number of jurisdictions who are getting the same message as me here in NB. We want to help the contact tracing cause but we can’t 😕

The @monctonspca gave me my first dog at 12 years old. He was my best pal for 6 years. They are facing a closure if they cannot raise enough money to repair a recent act of vandalism. Please consider donating to help keep their doors open🙏🏼🙏🏼 https://t.co/Q9enshtpPJ

@Arona450 @PaulCreelmanCTV @CTVAtlantic Stop pulling in someone’s past to defend abuse against them. But again though: shoplifting shouldn’t result in being beaten. It has everything to do with the colour of her skin. Anywho we’ll agree to disagree I suppose!

Santina Rao speaking to media outside of Provincial Court in Halifax. Her charges stemming from an incident at a Walmart in January with police have been dropped. There are also about 100 supporters on hand. She says “she will never trust Halifax Police again”. @CTVAtlantic

@Arona450 @PaulCreelmanCTV @CTVAtlantic 1st: if you read the article you’d know she didn’t steal anything, but you didn’t, you likely assumed based on her skin colour that she did. 2nd: I don’t know if you know this but even if you steal something from a store you don’t deserve to be beaten.
