Arkells present THE RALLY June 21st at Hamilton Stadium Tickets and Info here ⬇️
Joined January 2009
The argument against: "these teachers are already some of the highest paid in the country!" brings me deep pride. I want to live in a place where teachers, nurses and social workers are the most revered jobs. If a community is healthy + nurtured, everything else will bloom.

Honking loud for all the teachers out there marching today. Call me old fashioned, but we oughta empower and dignify the people who are in charge of guiding the next generation. Of all the things for @fordnation to put their foot down on, this one is a head scratcher.

The NHL dudes who admire the NBA and their players for its culture, music, personality and style - and there are MANY hockey players who revere the NBA in this way - could also stand to support them when it comes to politics. You can’t have one without the other.

Sweet moment today at my early voting station in downtown Hamilton. Middle aged fella, dressed in traditional Islamic attire in front of me drops his ballot into the box. The attendant says "We have a first time voter everyone!" and the room erupts in cheers as he waves goodbye❤️.

Last night catching up w/ friends who are ps teachers, nurses, autism support workers. Remarkable: their concerns are never about themselves, only the people they serve. All wish they had support from @fordnation - but none do. Imagine having the power to help, and refusing?.

Some might say the fortune of rust belt cities has something to do with globalization, and private businesses abandoning their workers for cheaper labour. But sure, let’s blame it on socialists.
Premier Doug Ford says “the socialists have destroyed Hamilton.” He is taking a shot at @AndreaHorwath. #onpoli

Hi Laryssa, you have a very tough job & I appreciate you have many worthy interest groups to serve. But to say these public servants are blindly indoctrinated by their unions (making their personal feedback irrelevant?) isn’t exactly fair. I was simply listening to their stories.
Also remarkable- funding under @fordnation has increased for education, health care, autism services. Would encourage this band to look into the policies we’ve put fwd to see what we’re actually doing - not what’s reported from union leadership.

Watching the Raptors and every time time I see FREEDOM or EDUCATION REFORM or BLACK LIVES MATTER on my screen, I *think* about it. Wasn’t sure how this idea would connect in practice, but over a month in it still hits. More activism and social justice in my sports, please🙋🏻♂️.

Need a better system for people reclining their seats on planes. I suggest:.1) seats shouldn't recline .or .2) the person must look you dead in the eyes and recite: "I understand I'm being an asshole + crushing your laptop + invading your space, but I can't help myself".

Hard to compare the feeling of what it’s like the night before we put out something new. The whole process of writing/recording/mixing/artwork is a slow burn, but the feeling *right now* is one of the best part of the job. Possibilities are endless. Excited for you to hear it❤️.

One thing worth noting about vaccinated folks: we don’t love big pharma & their profits, we’re suspicious of government, and we also hate being told what to do. …But we do feel bad for nurses & doctors trying super hard to help sick people. It’s about common courtesy is all!

I get + appreciate the pendulum swings. Maybe PCs were due? .I'm heartened the majority of voters (lib/ndp/green) still believe in active government. But I'm left head scratching how folks are still OK with being lead by someone who is so nakedly unprepared. How do we fix?.
