We may have democracy, or we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we cannot have both #SPPGTalks

A bunch of things on hydro bills should be paid by taxes instead. I wrote a thing! #onpoli https://t.co/X7T7IarpiA

What is this & how did this happen with public education dollars? Maybe next @georgiancollege can offer a program on horoscope reading 😤 https://t.co/gxzlwmFkmo

[Timothy Caulfield @CaulfieldTim]

So now @georgiancollege is bragging about their homeopathy program! https://t.co/hpUSnqnAR1 A publicly funded institution should not be teaching & legitimizing harmful, science-free bunk. @MitzieHunter @macdshane @skepticpedi @picardonhealth @CBCHealth @KCroweCBC @MollyShoichet

If the Canada Housing Benefit announced late last year targeted only the poorest, I roughly estimate they could face up to a 74 percentage point marginal effective tax rate increase. I wrote a thing about it, and poverty, housing & rent control 🏠📈

[Kristyn Wong-Tam 🇨🇦 @kristynwongtam]

Thank you to @SPPG_UofT's Spectrum for inviting me to speak about #LGBTQ+ representation in city politics. Representation and diversity on City Council helps ensure that the voices of our most marginalized are heard & policies reflect community needs.

Having a great time in NYC at @NYASciences Early Childhood Development meeting with @gchallenges. Thanks @SPPG_UofT for the chance to go with the Clark Fellowship 🔎👶📈 https://t.co/3G5NBCgntv

[Marvin JS Ferrer @mjsferrer]

I used to think rich people don't deserve social benefits (OAS, CCB, etc). But reducing benefits as poor people earn money takes the progressive income tax system and makes it VERY regressive 😤. I wrote a thing for @PPGReview

Feel so lucky doing @SPPG_UofT work for @HarvardCenter. Thanks for having me 🙏!

What even is a "capital gain"? I took a stab at explaining complex corporation tax changes proposed in Canada #cdnpoli https://t.co/gCg4TNkFhv

[Public Policy & Governance Review @PPGReview]

What do the Liberals' tax changes mean for small business? @mjsferrer takes a closer look. #cdnpoli https://t.co/sKeTmQsgP1
