I have a new op ed in the Star. Food insecurity is out of control. Current policies are not working. Good food is vital for health. It is an essential utility. The price of Canada’s nutritious food basket should be regulated so all families can afford to eat healthy meals.
Canadians deserve to live in a country where everyone can afford to eat a proper meal. Read the latest op-ed written by @JesseRosenberg and @kwame_mckenzie for the @TorontoStar. thestar.com/opinion/contribu…

We have a lot to do in Canada to make the country fairer but we must remember what we have. The world
knows this is a fabulous place to live. We should be grateful, then roll up our sleeves and do what we do… make it better.

Sunday questions: Is this the logical end game of philanthropy in academia? What is the impact of important institutions being influenced like this? Is public funding the only way to stop donors having an oversized voice and distorting scientific progress? theguardian.com/world/2024/j…

It will be -2 tonight and -9 including windchill. But warming stations will not be open because this is only triggered by the City when it is -5 ignoring windchill. Does that make sense? Is there more we could do? read this blog by Wellesley Institute. wellesleyinstitute.com/housi…

I love spas … they are good for my health . But I would like to see us using our precious public land to help as many people as possible thrive in Toronto. I am not convinced that privatizing the waterfront for the few promotes the health of the rest of Toronto’s residents
Having free, easy access to green spaces is important for good health. Parks also help build social connections, essential to a thriving city. #OntarioPlace is precious public land in TO and should be accessible for all. #topoli #onpoli @kwame_mckenzie

Policy makers, public health, the health and social care sector and everyone who followed advice, saved thousands of lives during the covid response. We could spend our time just focussing on what went wrong or, perhaps, we could build a better system based on what went right.
"I am concerned that while we focus on relitigating our COVID-19 past we will allow useful, effective pandemic innovations to wither and die." Read our op-ed in today's Toronto Star. #COVID19 #healthequity #onpoli
