Proud Dad. CEO of Children's Mental Health Ontario. Toronto, health care, sports, the arts and politics are what you’ll see here. he/him

Joined September 2009
💯 One more for MO staff. Get out and visit your stakeholders (frontline staff ideally) where they work. I did “Friday Field Trips”. A day shadowing paramedics, a day shadowing home care nurses, a day visiting different LTC Homes…Learned more from those than any meeting at QP!.
My advice today in @theQPObserver @sabrinananji for new (and seasoned) staff 👇. (Advice holds true for every political staffer job in every jurisdiction across the country)

If you're Canadian, this is worth all 7 minutes and 35 seconds. We're not perfect, but we've got a lot to be proud of, and to protect. #ElbowsUpCanada

On the @CBCTheNational tonight, at least 4 Premiers spoke, individually, and all but 1 of them had their name said & and written on the screen while talking. The final one was identified as “this Premier”, and no name written. @ianhanomansing and @CBCOlivia, any idea why?.

I actually don't think that the equation is "good parents = kids will tell them". It's actually "good parents = understanding that their kid may not want to tell them first, and will tell them when they're ready to". It's an important distinction.
Very interesting perspective. I marvel at the absolute confidence of people who argue *their* kids would never keep this from them because they're not horrible bigots.

As the CEO of @kidsmentalhlth, I know that our Team and our members stand together to support 2SLGBTQ+ youth. As the father of a kid with 2 Dads, I’m appalled that there are people who don’t want kids to learn that our family exists. There is #NoSpaceForHate.
There is #NoSpaceForHate in our province. We support the human rights and well-being of gender-diverse, trans, and queer children and youth. We stand in solidarity with the 2SLGBTQ+ community and will continue to advocate for an Ontario where all children and youth can thrive.

15 years ago, when we started working together, never would have guessed that my son and @ParisSemansky’s daughter would be walking to school together! @Deb_Matthews and @Kathleen_Wynne, thought you’d get a kick out of this!

And for clarity - no, the announcement, when I was two stations into the ride wasn’t sufficient.

My Great-Grandma would have been 118 today. These pictures are from her wedding in 1929, her 102nd birthday in 2007, and her 106th birthday in 2011. She passed away shortly after that. What a life and an inspiration! How fortunate I was to have her in my life until I was 35!

Today is a good day for Ontario’s children and youth. Thank you @fordnation and @SylviaJonesMPP for today’s historic investment of $330M across the children’s health sector, including in child and youth mental health. This will serve kids and families now and into the future.

This Impact Report basically covers my first year with @kidsmentalhlth, and I’m grateful to to be part of a Team doing such great work with our system partners and with government on improving access to mental health care for Ontario’s children, youth and families. Check it out!.
We are proud to share our 2022–23 Impact Report. At a time when we are facing unprecedented demand & significant workforce challenges, we are continually amazed by the innovation in our sector and the dedication to always putting kids and families first.
