It's like using a water gun to fight a raging fire! To avoid dire consequences, we need to focus on the actual problem and root causes. The work of community or charitable groups is not an excuse for gov't inaction on effective income-based public policy.

Thank you to @ctvnewschannel for inviting me on to share my thoughts on the need for public policy interventions to combat food insecurity. People shouldn't have to choose between medicine, rent or food. #motion46 #Pharmacare #affordablehousing #justicenotcharity – at Toronto, Ontario

"Not a single Canadian province offers social assistance or welfare rates that bring people even close to the poverty line." Canada’s social-assistance programs can be humiliating and over-regulated but major changes could be coming soon. vice.com/en_ca/article/akzqn…

Today I sent a letter to @JustinTrudeau and @cafreeland requesting that they replace the CERB with a guaranteed livable basic income. Lives are depending on it. Have you signed the petition yet? leahgazan.ca/basicincomemoti… #MOTION46

In 145 years only White people have sat on Canada’s Supreme Court. Indeed not a single Canadian government (Liberal or Conservative) has even nominated an #Indigenous or non-White individual to Canada’s top court. #BIPOC #SCC @SCC_eng

The cost of imprisoning a woman in a federal prison is estimated by Corrections to average $175,000 per year. Let's focus spending on #services instead of #sentences! #BuildCommunitiesNotPrisons

Why are we still having a conversation about whether or not #racism exists in Canada? How is this possible in 2020? Why is it still up for debate? And after all the reports and inquiries and testimonials why is it so hard to believe? What’s so difficult to comprehend? #RexMurphy
