We have been hated before. We have been targeted before. We have been here before. We won then. We will win now. If the far right and their friends in public office want to start a culture war on 2SLGBTQIA+ issues, we will rise to the challenge. And we will win. #NewProfilePic

I sometimes forget that I still enjoy writing opeds. If all goes well, I'll have a fresh one up soon, that I think will get me in all kinds of good trouble.

Let's just gut a whole level of local democracy, because who needs democracy anyways!🤡. This cannot be allowed to move forward. Locally governed school boards are critical to meaningful engagement of parent and community voices.

I'm moving to Halifax for the fall, but if you know me you know I'll still be: ✨everywhere✨. One season, six provinces, seven cities and - potentially (pending chats with a lawyer or immigration expert?) - a trip to Philadelphia!.

🚨 We need to act now to ensure Prime Minister Carney commits new funding to advance 2SLGBTQIA+ equality and women's rights in the upcoming federal budget 🚨. Visit to take action.

Given you're no longer in office, and perhaps more able to speak up on issues of human rights because of it. Now would be such a good time to speak out about the attacks on trans kids. And then watch how your base reacts to an expression of support for 🏳️⚧️ people's human rights.

Michelle, have you paid attention to your base lately? I know them best for the tsunami of hate they send my way. I know them for the hate they hold towards trans and queer people. Towards many other vulnerable communities. But you ignore it. Your party does too.
The “inclusive” left is the most hateful, angry & intolerant group of people. They feed off hate. It’s actually sad.

This is a hilarious typo after the mayor's actions vis-a-vis pride. Lol.
I had the honour of dropping the puck at the Hockey for Hate tournament. What began as a local hockey tournament has grown into an incredible community event that brings people together from all backgrounds to stand against hate in all its forms. Thank you to the organizers,

We also do love and feel soooo good that there are so many straight folks excited for the parade. It can be both!.

That's doesn't mean it doesn't suck, if you were excited to watch the parade! That's so fair!!! Queer people reminding the world of a genocide, and of our political roots and continued struggle, is #valid too.

There's the parade straight people go to. And then there's pride. Community events. Dance parties. Education. Love. Solidarity. Pride was always and will forever be so much more than a parade.
I urge people to remember that the best parts of pride have nothing to do with the parade. Pride was not cancelled. We are having a LOVELY celebration as we speak.

Also as usual, while media was going insane, straight people were posting hot takes, queer people had a hell of a party, in community.
