When cutting ✂️ provincial Conservatives are scared of cutting ✂️ federal Conservatives you know we have a problem.

Today was an amazing day.

I’ve never thought this would happen: to speak my language in Ontario Legislature.

Meegwetch for the support.

To our fellow Disability Organizations: Now is the time to break the silence on Gaza. We have joined an International call to support Disabled Palestinians and for a ceasefire now! Join us today at https://t.co/R7KA5jn8nu

Here is my statement on the judicial review results:

TLD; I am not apologizing or deleting my statement. Maybe an MPP will move a motion to undue the censure, or maybe I'll stay censured indefinitely. It is what it is.

We must focus on the atrocities unfolding in Rafah. 1/

TW: MAiD

Expanding #MAiD will face its toughest test Wed (Oct 18) when MPs decide whether to allow individuals who suffer solely from a mental disorder, to qualify for a medically assisted death.

We have a government that is under criminal investigation from the RCMP for the culture of corruption and preferential treatment where Conservative insider land speculators stood to make $8.3 billion in profits from the Greenbelt Grab. 1/

Thirteen days ago, I called for an immediate ceasefire and de-escalation by the Israeli government, which had begun a horrific siege on Palestinians in Gaza. Since I made that statement, Israel has only escalated its assault on millions of Gazans. 1/

I'm reflecting on my role as a politician who is participating in this settler colonial system, and I ask that all politicians do the same. #FreePalastine

I have signed e-4514 in solidarity for #PwD who needs help today, not 18 months from now when the new #C22 Canadian Disabilities Benefit that were promised #during the election is supposed to be implemented!

CERB Didn't take 4 years and 3 months!!

Will you sign? #cdnpoli

The 1st annual report card by @Disability_WP gives gov a failing grade: I for incomplete. Some key findings: People with disabilities are 2x as likely to live in poverty than those without disability, with even higher rates of poverty for disabled women. https://t.co/AODSMOCSIt

Great crowd of disabled and Deaf and marchers and allies at #TorontoDisabilityPrideMarch. We’re hearing rousing speeches from folks demanding disability justice, livable incomes and health care, and dignity as a human right from our ableist governments. #TOPoli.

We call on the House of Commons to hold an immediate vote &to ratify the Senate’s amendments to Bill #C22 #CanadaDisabilityBenefit Act. Hold a free vote! Pass the bill now! https://t.co/F9qpPA3KeC #Canpoli

Our new definition:
“MAiD Grooming is the intentional process used by persons in positions of perceived “authority” to desensitize and manipulate the broader population into believing that the euthanizing of persons with disabilities is good, a kindness and an equality right."

[David Lepofsky @DavidLepofsky]

Don’t let rich private insurance companies clawback #CanadaDisabilityBenefit from impoverished people with disabilities on longterm disability! HouseofCommons must ratify Senate amendments to Bill #C22 that prevent this inequity https://t.co/fNE625sCoK

[David Lepofsky @DavidLepofsky]

Major interim victory! Senate passed Bill #C22 #CanadaDisabilityBenefit Act With amendments the Senate’s Standing Committee added. House of Commons must quickly ratify Senate's amendments https://t.co/F9qpPA3KeC #Canpoli
