The ugly underbelly of social media is worse for women in politics, and it's undermining the success of our democracy by driving talented people away from public service. #AMO2022 Trolling is a major barrier for women considering politics: ottawacitizen.com/news/local… @ottawacitizen

It's time to tell some hard truths about what is happening to our country and to our democracy. We can't afford to be complacent any longer.

I've been sounding this horn for weeks: The rhetoric has been deranged, conspiratorial, and dangerous for awhile now. We just haven't been paying attention.

I think it bears constantly repeating: Vaccine mandates and passports are not a restriction on the freedom of the 90% of the population that is vaccinated.
The 10% that is unvaccinated are free to remain so, albeit with consequences.

Its funny how everyone cared about the mental health of us students when it came to getting us in the classroom, but nobody cares about the stress and anxiety its causing us to not be aware of the covid-19 situation in our schools until 30% of people are isolating. I just can’t

I am making public the letter I sent to @TOPublicHealth today, asking for school intervention.
It's a targeted ask to recognize the risk to 1.1 million wholly unvaccinated children in Ontario next week.
It's not the only need, but it's the scariest.

If only there was some way to show actual solidarity with front-line health workers. Like, say, legislating no-protest safe zones around hospitals? Always a photo op, never real action.
Protesting front-line health workers is appalling.
To show solidarity, I teamed up with @MichaelTibollo to donate coffee to front-line staff at Cortellucci #Vaughan Hospital.
@MichaelParsa & @DaisyWai_MPP did the same @MackenzieHealth.
We are grateful & #StrongerTogether. 🙏🏻
