Having worked in COVID ICUs from Day 1 of this pandemic, I can feel a collective rage starting to boil over. Hearing @fordnation spew this nonsense of "300K vaccines" is enraging. Even if you vaccinate all 15 million people in the next minute, this train is headed into a wall

Check out my recent article titled “The duality of Amazon in Scarborough — from delivering jobs to packaging community relations” for @Spacing. I reflect upon the duality of Amazon in #Scarborough as both problematic and useful. #TOpoli (1/3) spacing.ca/toronto/2021/0…

Men denigrating strong women by saying their voices sound like “nails on a chalkboard” is classic misogyny, sexism & gender stereotyping. What message does it send to ON women & girls when this is the language used by the Premier of ON? #onpoli

My message to women: don’t let anyone try to tell you you don’t belong at Queen’s Park. I’m going to continue making positive proposals to give people the help and hope they need to get through this pandemic. If Mr. Ford doesn’t like hearing my positive proposals, too bad.

First windows broken at the Foundry Building. Totally unnecessary and sad.

Precedents in the West Don Lands and Distillery District prove that redevelopment and heritage repurposing can go hand-in-hand. Demolition of the Dominion Foundry Complex should stop now. Sign and share the petition: Change.org/savethefoundry @FoundryFriends

Demolition has begun on the Foundry buildings!! @fordnation has ignored every community voice demanding a stop to the demolition and even the letter from Toronto's Chief Planner asking for the Province to save the heritage buildings. #onpoli

GOING TO A COTTAGE DURING A PANDEMIC IS A PRIVILEGE. I wish we prioritized people with no homes over people with multiple homes.

Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett developed the Moderna #COVID19 vaccine. As Dr. Freeman Hrabowski says, "She cannot be a hidden figure. She needs to be in textbooks. Little girls need to see her — of all races. This is what's possible." @KizzyPhD cbsnews.com/news/covid-19-…

We have witnessed two systems of justice: one that let extremists storm the U.S. Capitol yesterday, and another that released tear gas on peaceful protestors last summer. It’s simply unacceptable.

50% of Toronto’s cases are people on low income and 78% are people of colour. 60% of Toronto’s workplace outbreaks have been in frontline food processing, manufacturing, warehouse settings. If the Province & Feds are serious about beating COVID, they’ll provide sick leave now.

Today is my dad's 61st birthday. Since March, I've intubated, paralyzed, proned, managed on ECMO, and filled out death certificates of *countless* people who look exactly like him. 60s, some minor comorbidities, South Asian. I truly have lost count. 1/x

I know residents are starting to think about what to buy for the holidays and where they will buy things this year. I am encouraging residents to please shop online with local stores and/or take advantage of curbside pickup.

When it comes to income, almost half of the COVID cases are from people who live in low-income households (48%). A Torontonian who lives in a low-income household is 2.2 times more likely to contract COVID-19 than someone who doesn't live in a low-income household. 3/6

They gutted the Voting Rights Act They sabotaged the Postal Service They closed polling places, purged voter rolls, attacked mail voting, tried to throw out ballots And yet voters turned out in record numbers to overcome these barriers & make their voices heard

It’s disgusting and disgraceful that @WholeFoods has banned poppies for their employees. We will always stand with our veterans. Whole Foods should apologize and immediately reverse this decision. Everyone should wear a poppy #lestweforget.

Congratulations, @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. Our two countries are close friends, partners, and allies. We share a relationship that’s unique on the world stage. I’m really looking forward to working together and building on that with you both.

Nice work, Canada! More than 5 million people have downloaded the #COVIDAlert app. If you’re not one of them, now is the time to add it to your phone. People’s lives are at stake and we all need to do our part. So do yours and download the app here: bit.ly/3mQ5Hzu
