“Instead of saying... that you ‘feel for the 39-year-old woman, desperate to have kids but unable to buy a home in which to raise them, her biological clock running out, you just say, ‘I’m going to lower housing costs.’”

So, about those eggs…
The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens.

The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.

Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

Pollievre's actions do call for scrutiny!

It's been infuriating watching him and other far right HarperCons operate in this country with impunity.
How can anyone look at Poilievre’s activities, behaviours, and his refusal to submit to security screening and NOT say, “There’s something seriously wrong with this person!”

The Canadian Anti-Hate Network reports on the anti-choice candidates given the “Green Light” by Campaign Life Coalition. 84 of them! Actually there's even more because CLC excludes those who support abortion in *some* circumstances. ARCC counts those as anti-choice.
84 Federal Candidates Given “Green Light” by Canadian Anti-Abortion Group
The group’s questionnaire includes “Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion?”

As @mtltoula.bsky.social states public transport equity is "an essential service, central to an equal-opportunity society; it’s a means of accessing public services, amenities, income-generating and educational opportunities, and affordable housing."

Good transit is essential to good cities – we need more people speaking up for it - The Philanthropist Journal
Public transport is an essential service that promotes equity and health and reduces pollution. Non-profits can help mobilize riders and fund research and advocacy to support meaningful change.

Never forget, if you design a city for cars, it fails for everyone, including drivers.

If you design a multi-modal city that makes walking, biking & public transit attractive options, it works better for everyone, including drivers.

INCLUDING DRIVERS.

The “war on cars” has always been a lie.

I’m proud to stand alongside the queer community - from raising the profile of trans asylum rights to standing against Premiers' attacks on queer youth. Last night at WCDSB was no different.

If re-elected, I’ll continue to use every tool available to ensure every member of our community feels safe

Today #PierrePoilievre claimed that the Harper government balanced the budget, that's kind of hard to do when you carry 9 years of deficits. He lied. Conservatives inherited a 13.8 billion dollar surplus -and spent it all, then ran up debts.

Barely two months into his presidency, Donald Trump has devastated global sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Canada remains a global leader in SRHR but a federal election on April 28 means the stakes are high - Canada’s commitments to SRHR are more important as ever.

WARNING: The WRCSB is voting Monday on a motion that would ban pride flags, slogans, and symbols from being hung or shown (even on a sticker!) on school property. Even teacher's personal flags would not be allowed.

Please show up on Monday to show support!!!

Good. They need to be held accountable, and recording interactions and debates is one way to do that. Monday's flag motion debate will need to be watched closely. Anyone can see that banning all flags (except 🇨🇦) is just a cover to ban pride flags.
