(1/2) I am disgusted by the conduct of Prime Minister Carney and Premier Doug Ford, who laughed at and mocked the words of Grassy Narrows First Nations members.

His work must not end. I am so honoured to work with his son and our new leader, Avi Lewis, to continue working toward creating the world of Stephen's dreams.
So sad to hear the news about the passing of Stephen Lewis. He was a trailblazer, a human rights activist, and an unapologetic democratic socialist who spent his whole life trying to build a better world for all.

The future is bright. We have a movement to build🧡
Trans people need to be careful about talking about DIY. Yes talk about it in the general sense, quote the facts and figures but be careful. Don't give away sources to cis folks. Don't talk to journalists about the details. They're coming for it.
I am deeply grateful for my decision to endorse Avi Lewis. He has reminded us that our power comes from what we already hold within our movement.
Thank you to Avi and his incredible team for choosing integrity, for lifting people up, and for leading with positivity when it matters most.
Lol CBC attempts to smear Avi Lewis over scary “past activism” and the activism is.. renewable energy, public transit, high-speed rail, and universal childcare.

The U.S. and Israeli bombardment of Iran is a reckless escalation that risks a catastrophic regional conflict. 🕊️🌍
I’m calling on the Prime Minister to condemn these attacks and ensure Canada is not complicit through arms exports. 🚫🔫

Through the Liberals’ repeated use of Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code, they are violating the Charter-protected right to strike and attacking workers’ ability to fight for a liveable wage.
My op-ed: Rather than resurrecting failed pipelines, we must use the current energy crisis to finally wean ourselves off of fossil fuels
We have all of the solutions. We just need a gov that will commit to and lead the transition

Alongside tax breaks to corporate landlords and private jet owners, Carney’s Liberals have repeatedly violated the constitutionally-protected right to strike when workers stood up for liveable wages and safe working conditions.
I know Canada’s electorate is mainly focused on the economy right now, but the abject failure of the Carney government to offer even token support for international law should be a real black eye.
A complete abandonment of Canadian values at a critical moment in global history.
From community members and grassroots leaders, I’ve heard clear messages condemning the paramilitary force and authoritarian aggression by ICE.
Government officials must not remain silent about our closest neighbour embracing fascist authoritarianism.

Written English has barely changed in 300 years. If you can read Harry Potter, you can read Robinson Crusoe (1719).

I express again my heartbreak about the tragedy at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in BC. I reiterate that my love goes out to all students, families, teachers, frontline workers, friends and community members impacted.
Today is a dark day for folks across Canada who grieve the loss of so many young lives that were taken far too soon. Today we remember the immeasurable value of every child and young person and the responsibility of everyone to uphold their safety and wellbeing.
The loss of two innocent children in Kitigan Zibi leaves me without words. This news is devastating for all community members, and my heart goes out to everyone who has been impacted.
I am proud to endorse Avi Lewis. Like me, he is a lifelong socialist and a lifelong New Democrat. We built campaigns from the ground up, sold memberships to first time New Democrats, raised the money, and proved the sky does not fall when real progressives lead. What gives me hope are Avi’s endorsements. Workers. Union leaders. Feminists. Indigenous and Black leaders. 2SLGBTQQIA+ activists. Former and current MLAs, MPPs, MPs. Leaders in Quebec. This is what a big, inclusive party looks like. And over one million dollars raised speaks volumes. Leah Gazan, MP Winnipeg Centre

Thank you to my colleague @loriidlout.bsky.social for raising this critical issue in Question Period.
Pimicikamak remains in a state of emergency while the government is failing to act. When will they fulfill their constitutional duty of care and help people return safely to their homes?
No pipelines in a climate emergency. Protect our communities, oceans, wildlife, and forests. Respect Indigenous rights.
Tell Carney: Don’t ram a pipeline through the BC coast. Sign now ✏️ leadnow.ca/campaigns/sa...
Okay, cheers
Not running against your spouse is a gross over simplification if what the situation is, or even her own words.
We've reached an impasse, have a good rest of your day
One doing the bidding of another is definitely NOT the definition of proxy candidate.
Show me any source which would give you that definition.
Or don't, and I hope you have a good rest of your day
I literally quoted the CTVNews article and linked it for you. Are you disputing their reporting?
Are you able to answer what the definition of a proxy candidate is?
