On the eve of Ramadan I shared some thoughts on the growing political significance of Canada’s Muslim community and the responsibility that I believe comes with it. Canadian Muslims now represent a significant political force

Ramadan heralds a political awakening for Canadian Muslims

Today was a tough day for many Liberals including myself but I’m glad I got to open up about my feelings related to the PM’s brown face mistake and how I know those images don’t represent the person he is.

True measure of friendships is to see who sticks by your side in tough times. I feel the same applies to loyalty in politics. Peoples true colours tend to come out during the rough patches. The key is to remember who stood by your side in the tough times.

Dear staffers. Focus on your jobs. The ones taxpayers pay you to do. Let the campaign team worry about the campaign. If you deserve to be on the campaign the call will come at some point.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from our little family to yours! Hoping everyone stays safe and cozy this holiday season and takes some time to rest/recuperate for 2022. As dim as things may seem just remember we have the science, resources and resilience win and we will!

Some closing thoughts. Wynne was adult in the room. Ford’s lack of knowledge on key issues and lack of any platform are apparent. Andrea showed her colours when she admitted she would never legislate striking public servants back to work. #ONdebate

@liftandco Yesterday I wrote about how a lack of diversity amongst senior management teams in the cannabis industry is hurting business decisions. . The fact that someone thought this branding was a good idea might prove my point.

Today, Ontario's Employment Report for Q1 2019 was released, showing an increase of 185,900 jobs in the last year – 150,000 of which are full time! That’s why our government will continue to create an environment for businesses to thrive, grow & create good jobs.

57 percent of Mississauga residents identify as visible minorities yet not a single city councillor is non Caucasian. Brampton has 1 vismin councillor vs 73 percent of residents. We need to find ways to make local gov more representative.
