#Conservative MPs just blocked a motion to work this evening on Bill #C30 so Gov’t can provide #GST rebates to 12 million Canadians to help with high prices. @theJagmeetSingh & #ndp MPs pushed for this strongly. Why don’t Conservatives want to work to help their constituents?

The genocidal hatred of the Nazi flag. The violent symbol of white supremacy & racist slavery that is the Confederate emblem. Threats & abuse of journalists. Defacing the memory of Terry Fox. Why has not a single Conservative MP denounced the extremism & the threats of violence?

It is an obscenity that in Canada in 2020-2021, banks were provided with $750 Billion in liquidity supports, & Canadians with Disabilities are being forced to wait three years for any support at all. #PWD #ndp

#Argentina just passed a new #wealthtax on 12,000 people with > $200M pesos in assets. An amount equal to CDN $19B will be generated to help pay for #Covid measures. 🇨🇦 needs #wealthtax as well. Do you agree? #taxtherich ⁦⁦⁦

1% of Cdn’s wealthiest families hold 25.6% of Cdn’s wealth. Yet, we lack affordable housing, post sec. education, childcare, Pharmacare and benefits for seniors & PWD. #WealthTax will generate 5.6B Sign my petition : #TaxTheRich

Trudeau gov’t announces more of things he promises 2 do later- stable public transit funding? 2026. Binding Emission targets 4 climate crisis? 2030. Right to Housing? Maybe later. But Banks want $750 Billion in liquidity support? TMX wants $20 Billion? They get it now! #Hypocrisy

Despite misuse, Big corporations don't have to pay back any of $Billions in #COVID funds received! That's not true for Canadian artists & self-employed who applied in good faith for emergency benefits. Trudeau gov’t puts big business profits ahead of people. #cdnpoli #NDP

Silly Season for #Conservatives is starting earlier in 2023. #Conservative MPs are trying to block #dentalcare for Seniors & #PWD , the Grocery rebate for families & affordable housing- all proposed thanks to the #NDP . Tonight #CPC is blocking emergency debate on wildfires. Shame!

Together these two parties in last 15 years: Provided Canada’s Big Banks with over $866 Billion! in liquidity supports to socialize any risk & massively increase profits. Have allowed up to $450 Billion (PBO) in tax dollars to go to overseas tax havens. Time for change. #ndp

The #Conservative Leader needs to immediately and profoundly apologize for his hateful, #homophobic & #transphobic comments. Will he do the adult thing and apologize? #Pride @egalecanada

Some of Canada’s most prominent LGBTQ rights organizations have condemned Poilievre’s “deeply hateful” and transphobic claims. Does Canada value trans lives? If so, it’s probably time to start paying attention to what powerful people are saying about them.

Jack passed away 9 yrs ago today. I heard the news at midnight in a small hostel far from home. Had cancer not taken his life, I have no doubt he would have become Cda’s 1st @NDP PM in our country. We will keep fighting for what he believed in. Jack will live in our hearts!
