@fairweather__c @sabreina_dahab @CUPEOntario @cupe_3906 @McMasterU so proud of ya'll! 💞💞

Really special to be honoured by @CUPEOntario at #CUPEON23 for our @cupe_3906 strike at @McMasterU last fall. The strike is the most powerful weapon we have to fight, not just for better workplaces, but for a better world. So many amazing unionists proved it this past year.

cfr.org/backgrounder/h… Unarguably, #police violence in the US is at levels that set it apart from other liberal democracies. It's interesting, however, to note Canada's role as clear runner up in this regard.

Cracking down on bad-faith renovation practices is among the spectrum of solutions we must take to address the housing crisis in #HamOnt. We are facing a crisis. Cities are left with no choice but to pull every lever available to us. tvo.org/article/an-urg…

Isolation cells in federal women’s prisons are being used almost exclusively for Indigenous prisoners, according to statistics collated by a government-appointed panel. theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

Back at Queen's Park today! Met the iconic Sen @KPateontheHill for the 1st time in person. She's been integral in fighting for the rights of prisoners for decades. I got to know her during the fight against MAiD expansion. Looking forward to cooking up good trouble in the future.

We have to do more to fight against the rise of white nationalism in #HamOnt. Nothing in this article is surprising. "They are Hamilton’s homegrown neo-Nazis.And they believe their time is now. Southwest Ontario is becoming the fastest growing nationalist community in Canada.” twitter.com/GrantRants/sta…

The landlord murdered his tenants. The homicides did not simply “happen”. chch.com/hamilton-polic…

Last night I had the pleasure of speaking at the @TheAGH Annual Fundraising Gala. It was emceed by the amazing @laylastaats Art has always been a tool for resistance and liberation, & I was honoured to be able to share how important the AGH is to those of us in Hamilton Centre!

Today 34 people were granted their Canadian Citizenship at City Hall. I was honoured as the MPP in Hamilton Centre + as a Somali Canadian to share remarks. I reminded everyone that despite societal pressures, their value is *not* defined by their productivity.

Thanks to those who consistently show up to do the heavy lifting for those who cannot find their way. @CameronKroetsch @SarahJama_ @EasyThePianoMan #hamont #hamiltonencampment

Was so nice to see @SarahJama_ today at Hamilton City Hall in support of real solutions to the housing crisis.
