Mismanagement of the OINP is leaving employers and applicants in limbo. The program, designed to match skills with labor needs, is failing. We need transparency and answers, not form emails.

Last week at Queen’s Park, I stood with Survivors, First Nations leaders, and community members to raise the Survivors’ Flag for Truth and Reconciliation Day. This flag symbolizes the impact of residential schools, honoring Survivors and remembering lost children.
Every Child Matters.

The Ontario NDP Caucus is united, focused, and ready. Together with Marit Stiles, we’ll take the fight to Doug Ford on jobs — and make sure no one is left behind.

This weekend, I ran in the High Park Terry Fox Run, honoring my sister-in-law, Crystal, who we lost to cancer. 🏃‍♂️💖 Together, we raised funds and ran for hope. Let’s keep Terry’s legacy alive! #TerryFoxRun #Hope #Community

I had such a wonderful time at the Roncesvalles Polish Festival this weekend — part of my family tradition!
Huge thanks to the Roncesvalles Village BIA, local businesses, and volunteers.
The polish culture is a vital part of Roncesvalles that the community loves to celebrate it year after year! ❤️🤍

I was heartbroken to hear of the murder of Serenity Brown near High Park this past Saturday. I add my prayers to the communities for her family and friends' comfort and healing.

The OAC has demonstrated a clear picture: Minister Calandra shutting Trustees out of the education system will have the greatest impact on vulnerable children.
Families need a voice. The Ford government must reverse course—Ontario’s children cannot afford this mistake.

Some personal news to share... Our family got bigger! 🎉

There are so many ways to create a loving family. We've been blessed to build ours through adoption.

Welcome Quinton. We love you so much!

We wanted to bring a little fun to close out the summer. We had a back-to-school fair in Parkdale with free school supplies, face painting, games, pizza and ice cream. It was a blast!!
Thanks to everyone who came to volunteer and enjoy time together.
Here's hoping for a great school year ahead.

Our schools don't need more police. They need the 6.3 billion dollars in support that Ford has taken out of the education budget since he came into power.
Policing in schools does not make children safer. Children deserve a culture of compassion, not fear.

The first day of school is right around the corner, and to help get ready, I'll be hosting a back-to-school fair. Come out to pick up a free backpack, school supplies, and to finish off summer with ice cream and fun!
Masaryk Park, 212 Cowan Ave
Friday August 29th – 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM

Nothing beats ice cream in the park to close out the summer!
I'm so thankful to have gotten the chance to meet and chat with so many of you in Parkdale—High Park today.

As a mother and Torontonian, my heart was broken by the news of JahVai’s death and today I added my voice to those calling for stronger legislation on gun violence.

Join Us this Saturday!
This weekend on August 23rd, I will be hosting ice cream in Lithuania Park. Come meet us and the PHP community over free ice cream!
It will be a fun way to end to the summer! The event is open to all.
Date Details: Saturday, August 23rd at 3-5 PM at Lithuania Park

The Ex has been part of my summers since childhood and Canadian tradition since 1879. Honoured to be back this time for the Opening Ceremonies as MPP for Parkdale–High Park.

I'm standing in solidarity with CUPE flight attendants, 70% who identify as women, fighting for fair pay and respect
When frontline jobs are undervalued, unpaid, or overlooked, it sends a clear message: corporate profits are being prioritized over people. Workers deserve dignity and fair bargaining

Thrilled to tour BAND’s new studio & gallery-in-progress! Soon, this space will burst with creativity, conversation & community — a vibrant hub celebrating Black art in Canada & beyond. Can’t wait for the grand reveal!

I joined Gazan Canadians and Allies to demand urgent action from the federal and provincial governments. The 2-year-old Gaza Immigration Program is still failing to deliver on promise, as precious Palestinian lives are lost every single day.

Every child has a right to the supports and services they need! I spoke to Trillium about the failure of the Ford government to support children with autism. The premier has never put forth a genuine response to solving the issue.

Thank you to the NCCM for inviting me to your town hall where we discussed the rise in Islamophobia, the genocide in Gaza and solutions we can bring to Queens Park. The most moving part of the day was hearing from parents and students on how to make our schools safe for Muslim students.

The Ontario NDP is calling on Premier Ford and PM Carney to uphold its obligations under international law to take meaningful steps to end the suffering of Palestinian civilians and provide greater supports for Palestinian refugees fleeing genocide in Gaza.

🚴‍♀️The Premiere's proposal to remove bike lanes on Yonge st, Bloor st, and University Ave was shut down last week. 🚴‍♀️

This is what funding cuts do. Logan, a non-verbal child with autism, faces isolation as his therapy hours are cut. His mom warns he's regressing.

It’s cheaper to provide therapy than to confine kids! I urge the Ford government to fix this broken system. #OAP #OnPoli

In honour of Tibetan Heritage Month, I'm proud to highlight 4 Tibetan organizations in our community. Parkdale–High Park is home to many Tibetan Canadians whose culture, resilience, and leadership continue to enrich our community.

Today and every day, I stand with survivors of sexual violence. Let’s break barriers to justice and create real change. I co-sponsored the Consent Awareness Week Act. Urge the Conservative government to pass it this October: www.alexagilmour.ca/establish-co...

Ontario’s OINP nomination backlog isn’t just a delay—it’s putting lives on hold and hurting our global reputation. Skilled workers like Vaibhav deserve better. I stand with @CatherineFife in urging Minister @DavidPiccini to fix this system. Let’s do better, Ontario! #OnPoli #ImmigrationReform

Today I stood in solidarity with 9 First Nations as they challenge the Ford government’s harmful Bill 5 and Carney's Bill C5. Indigenous rights matter, and we must protect our lands and waters for a better future. 🌍✊ #IndigenousRights #Solidarity #Justice

An honour to welcome Menri Shedrup Khenpo Nyima Dhondup Rinpoche to Queen’s Park — the first Bön Buddhist leader to visit Ontario’s Parliament.

We spoke of Tibetan diaspora needs, global peace, and the enduring legacy of Tibetan Buddhism. 🕊️ #ONpoli #TibetanBuddhism #BonTradition
