Ford will not unlock housing by undermining tenants' security of tenure. This Bill is a new low that signals existential threats to every renter in Ontario. We need to go all out to stop it www.kristynwongtam.ca/stop-bill-60 #ONpoli #TorCen #Bill60

Ford has done nothing to fix Ontario’s broken ticket resale market:
⚾ World Series Tickets in 1993: $32 per ticket
⚾ World Series Tickets today: $2000 – $3000 per ticket in the upper levels.
Enough is enough. Sign the petition demanding that Ford act NOW www.kristynwongtam.ca/fans-first #BlueJays

Fans are price-gouged because Ford broke the ticket resale market in 2019. He can act to fix it or keep sitting on his hands. Email Ford to demand action NOW: kristynwongtam.ca/fans-first #OnPoli

AIDS changed the world, but ACT changed Toronto. The AIDS Committee of Toronto’s closure is a wake-up call for governments to invest in stabilizing public health and HIV/AIDS prevention. I am so grateful to everyone at ACT who gave so much and made our communities healthier over the last 42 years.

If Ford doesn't step up to save our colleges, this recessionary trade war is going to hurt Ontarians even more than it already is. I joined the picket line in solidarity with @opseusefpo.bsky.social college sector workers who are on strike for the future of public post-secondary education!

I met with Neighbourhood Legal Services to discuss the challenges and trends they're seeing in Toronto Centre. Neighbourhood Legal Services is our community's legal clinic, supporting some of the most vulnerable residents who need access to justice, including many facing eviction.

Solidarity is not a slogan — it’s about the commitment to each other that workers deserve. Thank you to @labourcouncil.bsky.social for bringing us together for today's Labour Day Parade! Today, and every day, I honour the labour movement and all those continuing the fight for justice.

Happy Labour Day! Today we celebrate all of Ontario’s workers and progress that unions have won. During a trade war, we need the government to work with unions to protect workers and our economy.

Today is Overdose Awareness Day. Hannah Robinson's powerful answer at this week's press conference with @robinlennoxmd.bsky.social & @alexagilmour.bsky.social calling for the government to make an emergency task force to save lives is still echoing in our heads. The overdose death crisis is complex.

Canada’s Gaza Special Measures Visa Program is a lie. Gazan Canadians’ families are trapped. They face genocide, starvation & war. But Canada is asking them to meet impossible standards like travelling to Egypt for biometric tests.

Today, on Emancipation Day, we mark 191 years since slavery was formally made illegal.
Ontario has significant work ahead to dismantle the systemic barriers that Black Ontarians face in housing, education, health care, and employment.
Happy Emancipation Day! Onwards in the work of winning freedom!

Your shows across our City remind us that art builds community. Movies bring people together, spark joy, and share stories.
Toronto is better when we invest in culture — and I’ll keep fighting for stable, sustainable funding for the arts.

What a wonderful night under the stars at the Toronto Outdoor Picture Show!
It was an honour to join the TOPS team to celebrate their well-deserved Trillium grant. Thank you for your work running a festival that makes access to arts and culture free and accessible for everyone.

Proud to stand with students, educators, parents, and community leaders at Queen’s Park to support the campaign against Bill 33.
Bill 33 will not make Ontario's schools safer. Toronto ended policing in schools because the SRO program unfairly targetted Black, Indigenous, & racialized students.

On the last day of school, the Minister of Education placed four more school boards under supervision — including the Toronto District School Board (TDSB). The Trustees you elected to represent our schools and community concerns have now been restricted. RSVP at kristyn.ca/education-townhall #ONpoli

It's too hot outside! But prescribers will be available tomorrow (Friday July 25) at 325 Bleeker St in the common area from 1pm to 4pm. They can prescribe air conditioners for community members on social assistance who need a break from the heat. Low-income seniors might also qualify! #TorCen

Today I was in Whitby for public deputations on Bill 9. This Bill intends to fix real challenges with municipal accountability, but this Bill has significant room for improvement. I hope that governments takes the feedback we heard today to heart. #ONpoli
