Our country is complacent if not complicit in active genocide and murder in numerous countries across the globe - and it’s not okay.

On Tuesday I spoke against reckless Poilievre motion supporting Liberal’s pipeline/tanker project without Indigenous consent. BC and Coastal First Nations have said no. Bitumen sinks. I stand with them.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.

Rural ridings across Canada need our attention ⚠️

In 2025, many turned blue that should have been orange. Rural folks deserve better MPs than what they got 🔵

Rebuilding means supporting rural ridings and making it clear they are at the heart of the NDP 🧡

Language is vital, language is life 🗣️

I understands what it means to have your language threatened and erased by the colonial powers that be 🚫

Learning French, learning from communities across Quebec & Canada, is a journey I'm so excited to be on 🧡

Leo’s got talent! Music is unbelievably powerful and something that can bring people together unlike anything else. Something few know is that I was a band nerd in middle school and high school - guess what I played!?
I’m so proud of the talented Leo High School Choir and all they are doing to represent the South Side of Chicago!

When we do housing right, we train tradespeople, support local suppliers + keep wealth in local economies 💰

We're talking nationalized, public, nonprofit housing tied to project labour agreements 🛠️

Housing policy becomes industrial policy 🤝

Human rights are an everyday essential that shapes our daily realities: the food we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink, the words we speak, the opportunities we pursue, the protections that keep us safe. Let's remember that and act accordingly. #humanrights

Abusive pricing by grocery giants + telecoms, monopolistic mergers, junk fees...🫰

Together, let's tackle Canada's affordability crisis by:
✔️ strengthening competition laws
✔️ creating good union jobs
✔️ building affordable public housing

Big corporations profit off of you every day + receive federal dollars to pad their record profits 📈

It's no accident, it's capitalism. Keep us down, support the 1% 🤑

Let's curb corporate power, end Big Oil subsidies + hit profiteers where it hurts💲

The Liberals' international student cuts will hurt post-secondary programs + increase tuition fees.

It means fewer tradespeople, nurses and teachers in our future.

Free education is the way. Young people deserve to land in post-secondary, NOT poverty.

Fixing the housing crisis demands housing that's accessible for all types of people.

Not just 1 able-bodied person, but big families, folks with different physical abilities.

Varied housing with supports in place for the people living there.

Public libraries are at the front lines of our housing + toxic drug crises.

Despite their invaluable work, libraries are chronically underfunded.

These are some of our last public spaces, and they're falling apart.

We keep seeing our public services decimated by Conservative-leaning municipalities and provincial governments.

As a social worker I know what these cuts mean first hand.

We can’t let that happen again, we must protect our public services from Conservative cuts.

Having an NDP government means standing up for what’s right.

We saw in BC legislation from opposition MLAs that would ban the use of 2SLGBTQIA+ flags in public. I am glad that with our BC NDP government that bill was defeated.

It means a government that pushes back against the pipeline threat.
