Just before midnight, an official recount confirmed the outcome of the race in our riding of Milton East–Halton Hills South. We won.
It is a profound honour to be elected as your MP.
Let’s get to work! 🇨🇦

One has a white cane, another stands with a walker and one is seated in a manual wheelchair. The sign has a dark green background. Written in white caps are the words: IDE+A in Healthcare: Beyond the AODA is looking for a Curriculum and Toolkit designer.

Congratulations, @PattyHajdu, on your appointment as Minister of Jobs and Families and Minister responsible for the Federal Economic Development Agency for Northern Ontario.

This is unacceptable violence against our unhoused neighbours and a clear precedent against drug users and disabled people in the coming days. The Government and those mayors who have given cover to this initiative to violate our rights must be held accountable. 2/2

Ont. Government, as we all knew was coming, is prepared to reject the wider consensus of Ontario's civil society, public officials, and communities threaten us all with his proposed use of the Notwithstanding Clause to attack our unhoused neighbours, many of whom are disabled 1/2
Mayors from across Ontario have asked for our help to deal with homeless encampments that are taking over public spaces and making their communities unsafe. I agree. Enough is enough.
Today, I let them know that we will be stepping up with new measures to protect communities and clear out encampments while getting people the help they need.

Very disappointed @TicketmasterCA @Ticketmaster. Bought field level wheelchair accessible seats only to be asked to leave because you labelled them incorrectly on your website. Told my seats at the top. 😡Nice to see so many people using mobility devices enjoying these seats. 😡
