Thank you to the Assembly of First Nations for standing up for the human and charter rights of 2SLGBTQQIA+ Albertans.

Like a lot of Ontarians, I'm fed up with Doug Ford's corruption. I'm not going to let him or his government keep getting away with it.

This Trans Day of Remembrance, my heart hurts thinking of all the people we couldn't carry through to the other side of this moment in history.
Amidst all the fighting we've done for our community, amidst the unshakeable belief that we will win in the end, grief still takes hold.
