A 🧵for #onted 👇

Btwn those who voted for PC & the folks who didn’t vote at all, 75% DON’T CARE about the state of quality public edu.

As we head into contract negotiations, I have a few thoughts…

But what it comes down to is this:

It’s time to do what’s right for YOU.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨

My office just uncovered that, buried in their Fall Economic Statement, Ford’s Conservatives are quietly seizing control of Exhibition Place.

They’re bringing the land under the Rebuilding Ontario Place Act—legislation that lets the Premier override provincial and municipal laws, including heritage protections, environmental safeguards, and even labour laws.

This scandal-ridden government cannot be trusted with more public land.

RT if you agree.

@deancain turns out arresting innocent Latino kids and farmworkers is harder than playing Superman :(

A common clapback from measles minimizers is that, "Measles was no big deal when I was a kid. Everyone had it. So why are you so panicky now?"

Let's break it down with some national Canadian data...

"My job as an EA is not at all what it was like when I started... EAs used to assist with learning... We became an adult students could trust, a friendly advocate. An adult who could employ strategies to help them regulate before they became frustrated or acted out... In the first 20 years, I was never attacked or struck; whereas today, it is a common occurrence."

There’s been a dramatic and deeply troubling transformation in the role of Education Assistants and other frontline education workers over the past two decades… especially in the last seven years.

What was once a supportive, student-focused role is now defined by daily violence, chronic understaffing, and emotional exhaustion.

🛑 This is not sustainable. This is not safe. Violence should not be part of the job!
📣 It’s time for the government to listen to education workers and take real action!

I’m not a Christian.

But I believe Pope Francis was the most badass Pope in history.

He refused to reduce God to a magician. Fought climate collapse. And preached like he time-traveled from 2140.

Here are 9 reasons why he was lightyears ahead of his time: 🧵

[Chris (Proud AB Motherfu*ker) @SkipIsChris]

I’ve worked hard to stay informed this election. I’ve listened. I’ve watched. I’ve read widely. And I’ve made my decision.

I won’t vote Conservative — not because of tax cuts or slogans.

Because of how Pierre Poilievre talks about using the Notwithstanding Clause.

Define “we.”

I’m grateful every day for this job, but particularly today where my official duties have brought me to Rome on Good Friday. I had a great meeting with Prime Minister Meloni and her team, and will head to church soon with my family in this beautiful city.

I wish all Christians all over the world, but particularly those back home in the US, a blessed Good Friday.

He died so that we might live.

I’m not a journalist. I’m an Alberta dad, husband, and trades worker. Over the past few days, I’ve been reading everything I can about the CSIS findings regarding Pierre Poilievre’s compromised position and lack of security clearance. Here’s what I’ve found.

This is some of Poilievre's voting record. Why would we believe that he's for these things now?

It is now time to bring back the Canadian law forbidding foreign ownership or control of Canadian cultural assets like our newspapers and news outlets. Prime Minister Harper was wrong then and remains wrong now. @MarkJCarney @theJagmeetSingh @LindaMcQuaig

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨

Uncovered footage of Conservative Prime Minister of Canada Stephen Harper thanking former Governor of the Bank of Canada Mark Carney, who is now Prime Minister, saying he has done a “tremendous job” and “Canada has a lot to be proud of”

1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed.

Put simply: right-wing has narrative dominance.

My org (@mmfa) did this study and been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...

Let's redevelop ##OntarioPlace with Canadian entrepreneurs & showcase Canadian innovation!

Let's not give a $2.2B tax subsidy & a 95 yr lease of #Ontario parkland to American & Austrian corporations.

BREAKING: President Trump walks to Marine One to head to Mar-a-Lago on the Taxpayers dime.

This trip will cost us $3.1 million, which could be used by USAID to feed 710 starving children for a full year.

SICKENING—Trump’s DHS just deported a surgeon from Brown University Medical School—who is here legally on an H1B visa that doesn’t expire until 2027, and has committed no crimes. Trained in the U.S. at Ohio State, University of Washington, and Yale as a **transplant surgeon** (one of the most difficult surgical fields in all of medicine!!!), she is a highly trained doctor on kidney transplants, which cannot be easily replaced. Her phone was seized at the border. A federal judge handed down an injunction against her deportation—but she was already deported on a plane en route to Paris. Brown’s kidney transplant clinic is now strained by her deportation.
