@IOAD2022 Quilts of Hope at Toronto City Hall @SisteringTO @joemihevc
The moving and powerful Flags of Hope Quilts at #Toronto City Hall for #IOAD2022. Each square represents a lost loved one. @momsstoptheharm @MichaelTibollo @SylviaJonesMPP @Carolyn_Bennett @TOPublicHealth @PublicHealthON
Disappointed that my MP @Yvan_Baker voted against sending #C216 to committee stopping parliament from a bold national conversation on Canada's overdose & drug poisoning crisis. This is a national crisis, not a provincial one.

Earlier today, I spoke at an event hosted by MP @GordJohns reiterating my support for #BillC216 to address the opioid crisis. I was disappointed to see the bill not pass into committee, but proud to be one of the 71 MPs supporting it. I will continue to advocate for this issue.

Hats off to the person who called out those who voted no against the Heath-Based Approach to the Substance Use Act in the @HoCChamber today
We did our best, thank you @GordJohns for bill C-216 gutted it didn't pass, but we'll never give up. @momsstoptheharm

We can save lives with Bill C-216 by making sure those who need help, receive it.
The vote is today.
Stand with us and demand change 👇🏽

This small step comes nowhere close to what our country needs, which is country wide comprehensive health-based approach to address this public health emergency. @JustinTrudeau you owe it to Canadians to support #BillC216 and send it to committee.

It's better to have it & not need it than need it & not have it.

With more than 16 drug desths on average each day across the UK you could need one too.
