Northern Ontario is burning. Today, I’m calling for immediate action: ✅ Declare a provincial state of emergency ✅ Remove barriers between jurisdictions so emergency assistance can be provided quickly ✅ Show up: house every evacuee, resource every fire crew, and rebuild every affected community

If you stepped outside today, that haze you're breathing is wildfire smoke. But the real story is up north, where it's coming from. Whole communities evacuated. Families fleeing by boat. Collins First Nation burned to the ground.

Minister Stan Cho lives in Willowdale, just a few subway stops from Queen's Park. No transfer required. He also has a taxpayer-funded car and driver. He still billed the public $16,203 for downtown Toronto hotel rooms.

I am thinking of the two lives lost and others who were injured and traumatized by the violence this evening on St .Clair West, just a short walk from my home. My family and I are safe, but I can’t imagine what the families of the victims are experiencing tonight.

Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦 Bonne fête du Canada ! 🇨🇦

I wrote to Prime Minister Carney today.   Doug Ford said Canada wasn't for sale. Then he rammed through the Billy Bishop expansion – pushed by an American company tied to JP Morgan. (1/2)

Doug Ford's big FOI cover-up.

Happy International Workers' Day, Ontario.

I've asked the Ontario Liberal and Green leaders to join me in calling for a full Auditor General investigation into Ford's $30M jet disaster. The good people of Ontario are looking to us to be united in pursuit of accountability and transparency.

I've called on the Auditor General to investigate the full cost of Doug Ford's $30M jet disaster. The purchase. The outfitting. The resale. The losses. Ontarians deserve to know how much this cost them.

A strip club. A luxury spa. A private jet. This isn't a bachelor party — it's Doug Ford's Ontario.

Finally got to meet Deputy Premier, Uzoma Asagwara. What a leader. Thank you for showing the country what an NDP government can deliver on health care: universal prescription birth control, thousands of health care workers hired, ERs and hospitals rebuilt, and patients getting care sooner.

Congratulations to @avilewis, for being elected the new leader of Canada’s NDP! The Canada we’re fighting for lifts people up, brings people together, and builds a future for everyone. That’s what NDP oppositions fight for every day, and it’s what NDP governments deliver.

The great province of Ontario deserves a government with a real vision and real results. That's what I'm fighting to build.

A court ordered Doug Ford to release his phone records.   So he's changing the law to make sure he never has to.   Wondering what he's covering up? It starts with a leaked video.   Watch the full story: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7esZ...

If I were Premier of Ontario, the first thing I'd do is address the underfunding of our public health care system, our schools, fix Northern highways, and ensure our kids could have a future in this province.    These are the priorities that a government in Ontario should have right now.

Doug Ford is obsessed with Toronto , but he keeps forgetting he’s Premier of the entire province. While he’s busy drawing up plans for a fantasy island, a new convention centre, and even adding jets, people in Northern Ontario are just asking for one thing: fix a single highway. (1/2)

I don’t want my daughters to have to carry pepper spray to feel safe walking home, neither should Doug Ford’s daughters - or anyone’s daughters. If he wants to keep our kids safe, he should look in his own backyard and address community safety as the Premier of Ontario.

At the end of the day, Doug Ford’s FOI changes are all about hiding his cell phone records from the people of Ontario and rewriting the rules to protect himself.   What is he hiding and why is he working so hard to keep it a secret?

Last week, we hosted a Save OSAP town hall in downtown Toronto, bringing together hundreds of students, parents, and advocates to fight back against Doug Ford’s cuts to OSAP. (1/2)

Our Save OSAP Townhall is underway! If you’re ready to join us in this fight, head to SaveOSAP.ca right now to take an action.

🎉🍊Exciting news! Applications are now open for the Ontario NDP Summer Internship Program.   If you’re 18–25 and living in Ontario, this is an opportunity to spend the summer learning how to organize and getting a behind-the-scenes look at how campaigns actually work.  (1/4)

March marks Bangladeshi Heritage Month. Ontario is home to one of the largest Bangladeshi diasporas in Canada with over 50,000 people. (1/3)

You waited 15 years for a train. Someone got rich while you waited. 💰   Watch to the end to find out how the mess by Metrolinx cost you – even if you've never taken transit in your life.

Great to visit the Shreddies facility in Niagara Falls and see firsthand the people and innovation behind Ontario’s food manufacturing industry.   Ontario’s food manufacturing sector supports good local jobs, puts food on the table and keeps our communities healthy. (1/2)

In 1921, they told Agnes Macphail her nomination was a mistake. That she should step aside and let a man do the job. She refused. She became the first woman elected to Canada's House of Commons. She helped build the movement that became the New Democratic Party. (1/2)

When Doug Ford came for education workers, we fought back and won. When he came after the Greenbelt, we fought back and won. Now, he’s coming for students and we will fight back and win.

Thousands of students, parents, and advocates gathered at Queen’s Park with one clear message:reverse the OSAP cuts and invest in students. Doug Ford’s decision to gut OSAP grants isn’t just reckless,it risks our province’s economic future and pushes a generation of students deeper into debt.(1/2)

Thousands of Ontarians, especially Iranian-Canadians and those with family and loved ones in the region are watching with a horror as Trump and Netanyahu unleash their illegal war on Iran. (1/3)

Wishing Jewish communities across Ontario a wonderful Purim filled with joy, laughter, and the sweetness of tradition. Chag Purim Sameach!

It's time for Doug Ford to see beyond his silver spoon and step up as the Premier for every Ontarian, not just the wealthy.    By cutting OSAP grants, Doug Ford is making it impossible for young people to get ahead, burying them thousands of dollars of debt before they can even find their first job!

Young people in Ontario are already stretched thin  and Doug Ford is making it worse.   He’s lifting the tuition freeze and cutting OSAP grants, forcing students to borrow more just to finish school.   You can’t build a strong economy on a generation buried in debt.

Today, we're launching a campaign to push back hard on Doug Ford's OSAP cuts.    Join us. Take an action. SaveOSAP.ca.   More to come.

Education should set you up for success, not a lifetime debt sentence.  It’s time to end Doug Ford’s vicious cycle of cuts and save OSAP.

Health care workers show up every day for patients, for families, for Ontarians. They deserve a government that shows up for them too.

Today was supposed to be the first day back at Queen’s Park. Instead, Doug Ford chose to delay it. But while he hits pause, nurses can’t. (1/3)

I am devastated by the horrific shooting in Tumbler Ridge, B.C. My deepest condolences to the families and everyone affected by this unimaginable tragedy. Ontario grieves with British Columbia tonight.

Doug Ford is a jobs disaster. Tens of thousands of workers have been handed pink slips while they wait for the Premier to finally come up with a jobs plan. If Ford won't do that, then the least he can do is demand that the Prime Minister stop taxing laid off workers' severance pay.

A resilient economy requires good jobs. Union jobs that train workers, pay well, and build careers.   I visited Insulators Local 95’s training centre - 80 years of certified training, apprenticeships that work, and workers who build Ontario’s infrastructure every day. (1/2)

Protecting jobs. Better, faster healthcare. A more affordable life. We will always fight for you, the good people of Ontario. 💪

Chances are, you’re paying too much for groceries. 💸 Let’s take a look at why— and why it doesn’t have to be this way. Watch to the end for just one of the ways the Ontario NDP will rein in these outrageous prices.

I visited Creative Beginnings in Waterloo, a brand new centre giving kids an incredible start and giving parents the peace of mind they deserve. But 70,000 families across Ontario are still waiting for a space that doesn't exist.

It's time the government got serious about building affordable homes. I was at the Village Soho in London. It’s the first project of its kind in Canada. Multiple non-profit developers came together to build affordable housing that actually works for people.

As Black History Month begins, we honour the generations of Black Ontarians who built this province into the diverse, vibrant place we call home.

Public healthcare is our competitive advantage and our social contract. It’s the promise we make as Canadians that we will take care of one another no matter what. Keeping our healthcare public is non-negotiable. So is better access and better care.

BREAKING: General Motors is bending the knee to Donald Trump by announcing massive layoffs in Oshawa. GM made $10 billion in North American profits last year. Built on the backs of Oshawa’s auto workers. They took hundreds of millions in subsidies from Ontario taxpayers. (1/2)

On January 29, we recognize the National Day of Remembrance of the Quebec City Mosque Attack and Action Against Islamophobia. We honour the lives lost, those who courageously protected others, and the survivors of this devastating attack. (1/2)

Healthcare workers at SEIU told me yesterday: “We got into this job to help people.” They also told me they’re burning out. Patient volumes are exploding. The system is breaking under Doug Ford’s cuts—and yesterday we learned Ford is planning to cut 10,000 more healthcare workers.
