This #TransDayofVisibility, we celebrate trans Islanders who make our province the beautiful place it is and we vow to stand strong and speak out against transphobia, homophobia, and discrimination of any kind. #peipoli

.@AltassTrish challenged the Tories on their lack of clear plan to continue providing healthcare to trans Islanders with the uncertainty around Clinic 554.

🧵Let’s be very clear: trans rights are human rights. And we must do everything possible to ensure trans Islanders and all members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community are safe, protected, and can lead full and happy lives. 1/ #peipoli

Thread: Yesterday, @peigreens shared its plan to address affordability and poverty on PEI. Under the King Government, PEI has led the country in inflation for two years straight and food banks are reporting record numbers of clients. Islanders are feeling the squeeze. #peipoli

Great to see BC moving in this direction. @AltassTrish of the @PEIgreens won the same protections for Island workers in 2021. #peipoli #votegreen
NEW - The BC Government has introduced legislation requiring employers to include wage or salary ranges on all publicly advertised jobs and will ban B.C. employers from asking prospective employees for pay history information. #bcpoli

It’s clear the @dennyking gov is failing Islanders when it comes to housing. A gov #WorkingForYou would increase funding into public housing – both building & repairing them. This is something the @PEIPCParty gov has neglected to do. #peipoli

#DYK: Islanders now have up to 12 mths to file a complaint about unsatisfactory police conduct? Thanks to a bill by @AltassTrish, Islanders can have greater confidence police services are provided appropriately. #WorkingForYou #peipoli – at Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island

There are no overnight fixes to our health care woes, but there's a lot we could do - and should have done - to improve things immediately. "We will give Health PEI the independence needed to make healthcare work for all Islanders. That is our promise and commitment." #peipoli

Another 2k Islanders lost healthcare access last week. Since 2019 the waiting list has exploded to nearly 30K. Premier @dennyking says he has a plan but after 4 yrs, it’s clear he doesn’t. When you have a gov #WorkingForYou, you get healthcare. We have a plan to do that. #peipoli
Another Dr who is not retiring, but choosing to leave because of challenges within the current healthcare system on #PEI. How many times does the PC Government need to hear the system is broken before finally doing something? #peipoli
Patients of Dr. Hal McRae have received letters that their doctor is closing his practice on April 20.
When McRae leaves, 2,100 Islanders will be on the patient registry, bringing the number of people without a family doctor close to 30,000. | SaltWire saltwire.com/prince-edward-i…

Spring ’21 @AltassTrish created legislation to give @Health_PEI board more independence. During debate every @PEIPCParty MLAs voted against almost every amendment put forward choosing to protect their power to abuse health for political gain. 6/16 #peipoli saltwire.com/atlantic-canada…

Premier @dennyking says there is a lack of innovation & ideas to tackle the #peihealthcrisis. He’s gaslighting Islanders. Hang on, this is going to be a journey. 1/16 #peipoli
"What's lost in the conversation... is that it isn't just money we need. We need innovations. We need to change how we deliver health care," King said.
"We've led... Canadians to believe that money is going to fix this. That is not totally accurate."

Money alone will not solve healthcare challenges on #PEI. More money will not stop the inappropriate political interference that harms our healthcare system. That is a problem that experts & frontline have been telling @DennyKing since he became premier. #peipoli 1/4
P.E.I. Premier Dennis King is in Ottawa with the other Premiers in an attempt to hammer out a healthcare funding deal. But Health P.E.I. governance is an issue that will require political change, former board members told me, and won't be solved with more money alone. #peipoli
Trish Altass retweeted
More money without better management, good planning, more accountability, and proper monitoring of results won't necessarily provide better health care services for Islanders. PEI needs a government that has a clear vision, a strong plan, and the ability to get it done #peipoli
STATEMENT by @peterbevanbaker on PM @JustinTrudeau healthcare talks with premiers: Islanders deserve a strong public healthcare system that prioritizes health of residents & they are tired of Premier @dennyking refusing to take responsibility. peigreencaucus.ca/2023/02/st… #peipoli
