Les droits des francophones sont importants pour moi – je promets d'être votre voix au Parlement.

In a province as big as Ontario, there’s no reason the Eglinton LRT should be on its 15th year of construction with no opening date in sight. I stopped by Little Jamaica to see for myself the real impact of these delays: 300+ businesses closing and a community that was once thriving now struggling.

With fries inside! If you’re in Sudbury, you really have to stop by Damascus, run by the Qarkouz family, for some of the best Shawarma you’ll find in Ontario.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Ontario! 🎄 À tous et à toutes à travers notre province, je vous souhaite de joyeuses fêtes ! www.ontariondp.ca/christmas-vi...

In Coniston, I toured the Elmwood building, a 55-unit apartment where rents are locked below market for 20 years. This matters because it means people can afford to stay in their community. They don’t have to worry about being priced out or losing their homes.

Stopped by LiUNA Local 493’s training centre in Val Thérèse, meeting with workers and seeing how they’re training the next generation for careers in the skilled trades.

Stopped by my favourite florist in Davenport, Hills Florist, to pick up some flowers for my daughter! Ninety-three years in the neighbourhood, and truly woven into this community. Thank you, Melissa and Laura!

Following news that Labour Minister David Piccini is under investigation over the Skills Development Fund scandal, CP24 asked me why Ontarians should care about this at a time when the cost of living is on everyone's mind. Here’s my response:

One of my favourite things about being up North is how people here are honest about what’s working and what isn’t, and how ready they are to help fix it. And look, when you survive winters like this...you build character. You learn to show up for each other. North Bay has that strength in spades.

Pitting application against application... Pitting workers against workers... Based on who hired a lobbyist connected to Doug Ford... That's not how we do business. Watch the full Skills Development Fund explainer video on my YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXK0...

Fired up for the North!

WATCH: I got kicked out of the legislature for calling Doug Ford and his government corrupt, and I refused to take it back. I explain why and break down the Skills Development Fund scandal in a new video. Watch the full video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXK0...

Had such a great time at the Rendez-Vous Ethiopian and Eritrean Restaurant in Scarborough, celebrating the passing of the Ethiopian Heritage Month Bill. Proud of Doly Begum and Kristyn Wong-Tam for championing this bill, and the community leaders who made it possible.

The vile antisemitic terror attack at a Hanukkah celebration on Bondi Beach that took the lives of 11 people was an unspeakable act of hate and violence. To target people gathered in faith and joy is hate in its most violent form.

55% of Ontarians didn't vote in the last provincial election. People have lost faith in government because of politicians like Doug Ford. That's my challenge. Getting out there and earning people's trust. Showing them government doesn't have to be corrupt. That it can change things for the better.

Time and time again, families are the ones paying the price for Doug Ford's failures. Every dollar that's handed to Conservative insiders is taken away from workers and public services.

Great news for Toronto! Mayor Olivia Chow is speeding up transit across the city by giving streetcars and buses signal priority at traffic lights and making it free after 47 taps a month. Ride faster, ride more, pay less.

WATCH: This happens everyday and it’s a disgrace. Doug Ford never has the guts to get up and answer my questions.

BREAKING: The Ontario Provincial Police is now investigating a recipient of the Skills Development Fund, Keel Digital Solutions. I have been calling on this for seven straight weeks: Minister David Piccini must be fired.

Thirty-six years later, we still remember. Fourteen women, killed because they were women. We honour their dreams, their strength, and their right to live freely. We must never stop fighting gender-based violence.

The Auditor General is sounding the alarm: over 2 million Ontarians still don’t have a family doctor — and Doug Ford has no plan to fix it. Instead, the's opened the door to privatization with no safeguards to protect patients.

Doug Ford had no plan to protect the 1,000 workers who just lost their jobs in Sault Ste. Marie. Ontario is facing a jobs disaster, and his government is mired in yet another corruption scandal. Doug Ford's corruption is costing people their jobs.

Doug Ford grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth and no one’s ever told him no — the corruption just doesn’t stop! Here’s what happened today:

Doug Ford not showing up to answer my questions? Yeah, you can set your watch by that one.

Did I get the Trump hand-gesture right? Look, here's what I don't understand: Doug Ford threatens to audit organizations that don't agree with him but rewards his bagman the Minister of Labour who has brought more corruption to his government? (1/2)

Absolutely.

“Go get a job”? Not everyone can be a well-connected lobbyist or run a nightclub for this government. How about a plan for real workers? I mean it’s just embarrassing at this point.

A shameful day for Ontario.

On National Housing Day, I stood with renters and neighbours fighting for something that should never be out of reach: an affordable home. Ontario has a housing crisis.And Doug Ford's response? Attacking renters.Bill 60 will make it easier for corporate landlords to raise rents and evict you. (1/2)

Doug Ford's attack on renters, Bill 60, is going to a vote this morning. Take action now and tell your MPP: Defend renters and vote NO on Bill 60. 👉 StopBill60.ca

Like a lot of Ontarians, I'm fed up with Doug Ford's corruption. I'm not going to let him or his government keep getting away with it.

Bill 60 is open season on renters. It gives corporate landlords more power to hike rents, evict tenants, and squeeze families who are already stretched thin, all while Ontario is dead last in home-building.

Here's the moment I was kicked out of the legislature yesterday.

It's a political power grab and a distraction from the crisis Doug Ford created.

Today, our Ontario NDP caucus wore red to stand with education workers, students, and teachers fighting to protect our schools from Bill 33. (1/2)

Here’s what we heard from a teacher and education consultant at The People’s Forum:

➡️ STOP THE ATTACK CAMPAIGN UPDATE 45,000 emails sent in all 124 ridings. That's huge. With Bill 33 going to a vote today, we are fighting to delay it to give people more time to be heard. (1/4)

#BREAKING: BILL 33 SET TO GO TO A FINAL VOTE TODAY.

I need to tell you what's happening right now.

One scathing Auditor General Report and an OPP investigation later, this Premier continues to stand by his man. When is he going to address the dark cloud hanging over this government and fire his Minister?

Congratulations to the Workers Arts and Heritage Centre on reaching a landmark with 30th Sam Lawrence Dinner! Thank you for all the hard work you do in archiving, celebrating and honouring the stories of working people.

This past week, I've been speaking to workers across the province. Their concern? Losing their jobs while this government continues to use the Skills Development Fund as a friends and family special. When will this government stop the pay-to-play schemes and deliver a jobs plan for Ontarians?

Fridays are for stopping by The Stop Community Centre to serve up breakfast for the constituents of Davenport! In times like these, thank you for serving the community, The Stop.

Minister of Labour David Piccini handpicked a company – Keel Digital Solutions – to receive funding despite scoring just 59/100. Then came the Paris wedding, the rink-side Leafs seats, and now an OPP investigation. With all this on the table, how has Doug Ford not fired him?

#BREAKING: A company awarded $37 million by Minister of Favours David Piccini, whose lobbyist’s Paris wedding he attended and whose executives he joined in box seats at a Leafs game, has been referred to the Ontario Provincial Police after an audit into misuse of Skills Development Fund dollars.

Lest we forget.

📣YOU’RE INVITED: Stand Up for Education Now - Take Action on Bill 33   🗓️Thursday, November 13th ⏰6:00pm 📍Zoom (1/2)

💌 YOU’RE INVITED: Join New Democrats across the province this Friday at the People’s Forum. The People's Forum will be a place to discuss the impacts of two new harmful laws that Doug Ford is rushing through without public input.

Imagine your child struggling in class, so you turn to your local trustee for help. Under Bill 33, Doug Ford will replace that trustee with a $350,000 Conservative insider—someone you didn’t elect, can’t remove, and who doesn’t answer to you.

Get off your a** and look harder. That's what Doug Ford says to a new grad who's applied to hundreds of jobs with no luck. Here's my response to Doug Ford's budget update – the Fall Economic Statement.
