I am excited to share that, since I first published "A Pocket Guide to Pronouns" in November 2023, I have sold over 800 copies! This is very exciting and humbling. I would love to get to 1,000 copies sold by the end of 2025, and I need your help.

It has been a week since the election, so I decided to write a blog reflection on elections, drawing from my experience as a candidate, voter, poll worker, and campaign volunteer.

TODAY is Election Day! Voting is a critical way to make your voice heard about the future you want to see. Together, we can vote for a Canada that prioritizes equity, human rights, and community - not divisive politics and hateful rhetoric.

Seeing multiple reporters posting that the post-debate media scrums are cancelled???

You mean to tell me the commission is so scared of having to have a backbone against grifters that they’d rather deprive us ALL of the question period than actually tell the cosplayers “you guys have to go”???

I’m a trans woman with a 9 year old son. I do all of these things and more while also having a high stress job.

The audacity of this gives away the game that they don’t even think we are human.

I voted yesterday afternoon and it took about 3 minutes! Voting is absolutely CRITICAL - especially this federal election.

Don't forget to follow me on my activist socials for posts and info about the election.

Happy #TransDayofVisibility!

Since I published "A Pocket Guide to Pronouns" in late 2023, there have been almost 700 copies sold! I am in awe and honoured to be able to be part of an amazing community of folks who want to learn about the importance of pronouns in building safer spaces.

Last year, Republicans silenced her.

This year, many stood beside her and defeated four anti-trans bills.

This is the power of standing up for your beliefs and for what's right, and good trouble.

National Democrats, take notice.

One bill would remove trans children from their parents, and the other would ban drag shows and Pride marches

It has now been a week since the provincial election, so things have settled down a bit. Which means it's a great time to send a thank you to your local candidates!

In honour of the last day of Black History Month, I posted a piano cover of "A Taste of Bass." This piece was composed by Valerie Capers, the first blind graduate from Juilliard School and a talented jazz pianist and composer.

43% of the vote gave Doug Ford's PCs 64.5% of the seats and 100% of the power.

It's time for proportional representation!
