"Don’t let them tell you it can’t be done."
Jack Layton's words from his final letter to Canadians are one of many reasons I, Chris Cameron, have chosen to be your NDP candidate for Durham.
We can create change in Durham and I hope you'll join #TeamJagmeet. #elxn44

Today, there will be a NDP motion from @theJagmeetSingh in the House of Commons calling on the government to stop taking Residential School survivors & First Nations children to court.
I urge all MPs to vote YES on this motion. A vote against is a vote against Indigenous People.

How about providing support to students who are still expected to repay OSAP loans during a pandemic and record high unemployment...
Colleges and universities are critical to Ontario’s economic recovery as a key source of research, innovation and job creation.
That's why our government is helping our colleges and universities offset the costs related to #COVID-19.

Please this whole thread.
@CBCQueensPark has done another excellent job of exposing @fordnation's latest attempt to upsize MZO powers, this time retroactively.
To fellow Ontarians, please remember this rot is enabled by your local PC MPP.
NEW: The Ford government wants to rewrite provincial law so that a key clause limiting the scope of ministerial zoning orders does not apply to MZOs ... and *never did*. #onpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/o…

Will we see you there?
Join us tomorrow!
Doug Ford, Pickering Council, and the developers they work for, are pushing hard to accelerate the destruction of the Duffin’s Creek #wetland. Come out and join the resistance. #SaveDontPave #MZO

People would feel like they have to sacrifice important, unpaid labour in order to keep a roof over their heads or food on their table. The struggle between doing what is important vs doing what makes money, especially when caregiving is involved, wouldn't exist

Q5: How different would our society look if we properly valued Unpaid Labour?
#NewDemoChat
When we were preparing for tonight and talking about the unpaid labour of women, care work emerged as one of the most significant examples of unpaid/undervalued work. Caring for someone else, requires a lot of hard work that is essentially done for free.

Alright, here we go!
Q1: Unpaid Labour: What is it? What forms does it take, particularly for women?” #NewDemoChat
And it's not just unpaid labour, it is also deeply undervalued. For far too many people, there is an inherent assumption that women MUST have children, they MUST be the primary caretakers for them, so all of the effort they put in shouldn't receive any recognition as valuable

“This demonstration showed that Durham residents are concerned with the haphazard approach to development supported by Pickering’s council,” said Chief LaRocca. “While we understand the need for economic development, it cannot be done at the expense of our wetlands.”
