Thank you to so many voters in University Rosedale who responded to a progressive vision for the ward. The results aren’t what we hoped for, but know I will never stop fighting for you. I’ll be on @metromorning to discuss the campaign at 7:40 today. #topoli #UniRose

Playgrounds are looking nice and safe this morning! Kids are all wearing masks and keeping distance. 👍🏽 Our children are capable of learning whatever we teach them; the first step is to believe in them! #topoli #onted

. @theJagmeetSingh on CBC now, saying we must waive vaccine patent protection so that all countries can manufacture the vaccine locally. It’s the best solution to getting the world vaccinated against #covid19 . #elxn44 #cdnpoli

I've made a map of every free rapid test pickup location in Ontario! Most of the ones outside the GTA are LCBO locations. #topoli #onpoli #covid19 #FreeTheRATs

Speaking to parents who are very unhappy with larger class sizes during a high level of #covid19 spread. We haven’t been funded for a lower class size, so unfortunately this is where we find ourselves. #topoli #onpoli #onted

My motion to delay the parent decision on desired learning modes to August passed. I don’t think it’s fair to ask families about in person vs. virtual while our province is in crisis. Let’s wait for cases to go down, and get vaccines into arms and decide in August. #topoli #onted

. @maritstiles up at the Legislature, asks why so few asymptomatic tests have been completed so far, only 6,600 tests done so far, despite promises of 50K/week. We have to catch cases early. Why aren't we testing more students and staff? #topoli #onpoli #onted

Will you use the notwithstanding clause against other education unions, a reporter asks? No direct answer given.
