.@MichaelFordTO is a kind hearted gentleman, he is smart and public service is in his blood. If I were a candidate I would take his serious consideration, well, seriously.

I hope Canadian law enforcement is investigating and our media outlets are going to report on this foreign interference and death plot. Goldie is fearless in defending her Iranian heritage, family and diaspora in Canada and supporting Jewish Canadians against anti semitism.

Another day, another story like this in Canada where a sex offender gets better consideration than the victim(s) and civil society. I wonder if anyone is tracking these violations of dignity? If so, I would love to connect.

I consider John to be a friend and mentor. He has given his whole life to public service in one capacity or another and for that I am appreciative. I hope he is at peace with this decision knowing so many are grateful for his contributions.
It was the honour of a lifetime to have served as mayor of this city, the city I love and will always hold dearly in my heart. You’ve given me a lot to think about and I want to assure you I have given it serious consideration. But I will not be running in the 2026 election.

Hi Will, quick question for you. Do you believe a woman should be stoned to death for showing her hair? Or travelling without her husband? If so, the IRGC has a place for you, but Canadian civil society not so much.

This is why there is an erosion of trust in public institutions. If you can’t protect children and women from rapists and sex criminals in society our very foundation of equality under the law is tested.

My dream is to live in a country where all adults believe that protecting children from predators is the most important thing we can do. What a disgrace. @CPC_HQ @fordnation
