I'm grateful for the chance to share our family's story & talk about the impact of inter-generational trauma, and the removal of Indigenous children from their culture & community. Thanks to everyone @TheAgenda, especially @namshine for guiding the conversation with such care.

NEW: Education protesters have rushed up to the front doors of Queen’s Park to protest Bill 33. #onpoli

Minister @PaulCalandra using veterans and Remembrance Day for partisan political games is truly shameful! What a hideous moment in question period just now. #shame Congrats to @JennieStevens_ on her bill and her stalwart integrity and advocacy for service people. #onpoli

Unanimous! In #Canada, we cannot even have it considered. Their ENTIRE Senate voted for it. #CallItFemicide, #Canada.

NEW: Chiefs of Ontario has responded to Premier Doug Ford's comments about First Nations coming to Queen's Park "cap in hand" and about self-reliance. "This rhetoric is dangerous." #onpoli

This is blatant anti-Indigenous racism. Intentionally designed to stoke further hate and garner support from his base so he can justify ramming through his agenda. This is text book Doug Ford. Let’s not take the bait, as enraging and hurtful as it feels rn.

NEW: NDP MPP Sol Mamakwa is ejected from the Ontario Legislature after accusing the Premier of “telling untruths” to First Nations. After being asked to withdraw the comment, Mamakwa was named forcing him to leave the legislature. #ONpoli

So uh @PierrePoilievre used John Dunsworths likeness as Jim Lahey (Rest in peace John 🫡) in one of his agitprop pieces this week. Small problem, John ran for the NDP decades ago and was a raging progressive who championed socialized medicine, the CBC, the arts & gun control

Weird choice of headline considering she won by 2,600 votes. The pc on Hamilton mountain won by less but OK.

This is how developers do it. They get road blocked by the community. Then decide to put forward their own candidate to push through changes in their own interest. @shaw_sandy is the candidate of choice in Hamilton West Ancaster Dundas to beat Conservative donor candidates.

Strategic voting doesn’t work. A great reminder that academics have looked at the hard data and found these efforts failed.

Vive le Canada! 🇨🇦

#NEW Ontario First Nations sue the federal government over alleged deadly underfunding of fire protection on reserves. "Canada cannot treat First Nations people living on reserve as if their lives and safety are worth less." Latest with @UofT_ijb

As an Indigenous woman who was part of a political party’s senior leadership, I can see that Crombie et al seemingly lack an Indigenous lens, or the willingness to apply one You really need to engage people with diverse lived-experiences in the work Her tweet is insensitive 🫠

People never ask. They just talk.

Newly elected members of the French parliament refusing to shake hands with the far right is extremely satisfying. A particular shout out to the rock paper scissors gag.

As a mom, a community member & a voter, I’m shaken by this report coming out of the @UofT_ijb. The fact that addressing this critical health risk to children, teachers & education workers isn’t a top priority for @fordnation is shocking. #hamont #onpoli

“It’s a crisis.” IJB report exposing widespread provincial #lead test failures in school and daycare drinking water prompts outrage. Opposition is demanding the #Ontario government take action to address “shocking” lead levels. #onpoli #DougFord https://t.co/L1NrVdmDhE

Congratulations to the fantastic Ryan McMahon on two Canadian Screen Awards today at @CBC #Toronto @TheCdnAcademy #Ryanmcmahon #hamont #thunderbay
