Yowza. Super disappointing to see both #BillC6 and #BillC10 left on the table. Both these bills are super important (for totally different reasons). 😢😡

Today is Red Dress Day. It is a day when we honour missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls & gender diverse people. We remember & uplift them. We support their families. We recognize this disproportionate violence as a national tragedy. We advocate for change. #MMIWG2S

“Disaster Girl,” perhaps one of the most recognizable members of the unofficial meme hall of fame, is now an NFT worth half a million dollars. The 4-year-old girl from the photo, now a college student, plans to pay off student loans and donate to charity. nyti.ms/32YZCIX

Ontario's Premier giving workers 3 days of #PaidSickDays after he himself gets 14 to isolate is the epitome of hypocrisy.

3 paid sick days for a virus that requires people to isolate for a minimum of 10 days.
Not good enough.
An org that serves musicians in crisis used AI to develop songs that might have been by “the 27 club” to show what’s been lost to the mental health crisis. Not sure it’s an effective campaign as the message is lost in the novelty but kinda cool? Losttapesofthe27club.com #film4230

The people most likely to be hit by the 3rd wave, are the same people less likely to be protected by Ontario’s shutdown.
Low income, racialized, frontline workers have been hardest hit by COVID-19.
Want to protect them? Paid sick leave & an expedited vaccine rollout, to start.

Yes! Ty TPL. This is already happening in other regions outside of Toronto. What’s the hold up @JohnTory ? Outreach saves lives.
Starting this week our exceptional Toronto Public Library team will be calling their 35,000 members over the age of 70 to help them register for vaccines.
A robust vaccination campaign requires outreach to every resident in every corner of our city. @torontolibrary @vbowlestpl
Why is @fordnation hoarding vaccines?! They’re only useful if they’re being used. Let them run out! This is not a competent roll out plan.
First development of content via Wattpad/CBC Gem collab announced. Will be interesting to see how CBC rolls out original content on their new platform and how productions start to roll out of Wattpad audience generated content. #film4230
