We know we can’t run the same campaign and expect different results. We will learn from the last election and we will build a strong, grassroots-led movement that will take on Doug Ford. We're ready to get to work and offer Ontarians a better government—something to vote for.

🧡 The NDP is the party of workers. 🧡

Investing in public schools creates healthier learning & working environments + supports our local economy during an aggressive trade war. Min of Ed underfunding has resulted in overcrowded, overheated & crumbling schools. Elizabeth Ziegler PS is so dire it's closed for repairs until 2027! #onpoli

As Ontario’s public colleges face an unprecedented crisis, College Support Staff are now on strike. The Ontario NDP stands in solidarity with these workers as they fight for the future of our province. Read my full statement below. #onpoli #onpse #SaveOurColleges

I joined together with Leader Marit Stiles, MPP Alexa Gilmour, AEFO, OSBCU, OECTA, OAC, ETFO-TO and parents, Kiera Chion and Safraw Hanif, to say: hands off our schools. Families deserve accountable, local trustees, not political games from Queen’s Park. #onpoli #onted

Over 50 public schools in Waterloo Region are below a state of good repair, with a $178 million local repair backlog. The WRDSB, WCDSB, and local French-language boards all face overcrowding and urgent facility needs. Please consider signing this petition: www.etfowr.ca/repairoursch...

The OAC has demonstrated a clear picture: Minister Calandra shutting Trustees out of the education system will have the greatest impact on vulnerable children. Families need a voice. The Ford government must reverse course—Ontario’s children cannot afford this mistake.

Feeling inspired to act? Here is a resource doc with links shared in the meeting: docs.google.com/document/d/1... #OntEd @chandrapasma.bsky.social

Weeks ago, we asked the Ford government to release the details of their plan to support tariff-hit businesses. Despite growing economic uncertainty and ongoing job losses, we still don't have a cohesive plan. We need answers - now. #onpoli #TariffCouncil

The mask is off. The Minister has made clear he is ready and willing to move quickly to cut parents and communities out from being able to have a say in their children’s education. Here are the facts. #onted #onpoli

It's horrifying to hear that this attack on a Jewish woman was a hate crime. No one should live in fear or suffer violence because of who they are. I stand with Ottawa's Jewish community, and I will continue to push for action against antisemitism in Ottawa and across Ontario. bit.ly/3HztOm7

I’ll be taking a break from classroom setup on Monday to enjoy this holiday that the Labour movement won for us. Looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday!

“Canada is a great country, one of the hopes of the world. We can be a better one – a country of greater equality, justice, and opportunity.“ ~ Jack Layton’s last letter to Canadians’

All levels of government need to work together to support the needs of community members. This is how it’s done.

We've had democratically elected school boards for over 175 years and now the Education Minister is talking about doing away with them all together. This is a deliberate power grab from an out-of-touch government that wants to do away with democratic governance in public education. #onpoli #onted

This is a shameful way to treat seniors in Ontario.

Bonne rentrée aux élèves, aux enseignantes et enseignants, aux travailleurs et travailleuses en éducation, et à la direction qui commencent l’année scolaire aujourd’hui. Je vous souhaite une année pleine d’apprentissage, de joie, et de communauté.

Always in our hearts, forever in our work — thank you, Jack.

Universal health care is Canada’s greatest achievement. But families are waiting longer and workers are stretched thin. The Official Opposition NDP will strengthen public health care — more doctors, stronger community health centres, nation-building hospitals, and no privatization.

“Things are so bad right now in Ontario on the housing file that if people can live in a friend’s basement or family basement, they feel like this is as good as it’s going to get, until this government gets their act together.” #onpoli www.therecord.com/news/waterlo...

Policing kids is not the answer. Investing in them is. That’s why we’ve worked with educators to build a real plan to end school violence. Add your voice and sign our petition to demand that the Ford government adopt our plan. Read here: substack.com/home/post/p-...

Le projet de loi 33 attaque l’éducation en français et les droits des Franco-Ontariens. En confiant nos écoles à des superviseurs non élus, il menace l’avenir de la langue et de la culture françaises en Ontario. Défendez vos droits : écrivez à Ford ici win.newmode.net/ontarionewde...

The OHRC’s recommendations make it clear: police-in-schools programs risk worsening the negative experiences of vulnerable students. Instead of bringing back SROs through Bill 33, the government needs to listen and fund real supports like counsellors, EA, and mental health professionals. #onted

Eliminating trustees doesn’t solve anything, it just silences parents and students. Trustees provide transparency and advocacy to communities. What our schools need is more funding, not fewer voices for parents and students. #onpoli #onted

Healthcare workers are doing everything they can to meet patient needs in the ER, with increasingly fewer resources. The Ford government needs to step up and ensure that hospitals have the funding they need so that this never happens again. globalnews.ca/news/1134626...
