ONA President @erinariss and health care allies were just kicked out of the legislature for loudly voicing their opposition to #Bill60, which expands the scope of private health care in Ontario. We won't let @Fordnation silence our opposition to his drive to privatize! #onpoli

Clara B. Williams college professors did not allow her inside the classroom because she was Black. But that didn’t stop her. She took notes from the hallway–standing up! She eventually graduated at the age of 51 and lived to 108 years old and saw her 3 sons become doctors.

Replying to @CTVToronto
No money for social services. Mental health services. Health care services. Homelessness. Affordable housing. Throwing more money at law enforcement instead of the actual roots of the cause is asinine and won't fix much of anything other than cause more desperation.

I think my biggest problem with my PhD at the moment it how I manage my time… PhD students: what does your average day look like? How do you structure it and what do you use to help stay on track?
