I'm seeking the @OntLiberal nomination for Toronto—St. Paul's. It's where my wife and I live, and where we're raising our twin girls. This is a very special community, and like all of Ontario we've gone through some tough times. I'd be honoured to represent you at Queen's Park.

I couldn’t have said it better myself!
Comparison about one's success is natural, especially on social media. Yet, by comparing you to others you reject yourself and and your own uniqueness. Embrace this unique human being you are.

Today was a blitz of vaccine trial data, so I've summarized some key features in this table. Bottom line: the mRNA vaccine story is simple and extraordinary; the AZN/Oxford is convoluted and problematic

I love @Yamiche’s response to Tucker Carlson’s underhand blows, which does not address the issue at hand.
I know I’m doing something right when @TuckerCarlson is threatened by my reporting and making baseless claims about bad grammar. As the great Beyoncé said, “Boy bye.”
