That’s why I voted NO on their motion to fast track three government bills.

Debate and public consultation are critical to democracy. I can’t support a motion that shuts out the people of Ontario from having their say on the issues that matter to them.

The Ford government is starting out this session the same way they do every session β€” ramming through legislation without consulting with the people of Ontario.

We're losing our farmland at an unprecedented rate in Ontario.

Yesterday, Bobbi Ann Brady and I were in Halton Hills to talk to their city council about our bill to create a Foodbelt to protect our farmland.

A huge thank you to the Halton Hills council for passing a motion to support our bill.

It's time to get your free flu and covid shots Ontario!

Many locally owned pharmacies in Guelph are providing the shots, like Walsh's West End Pharmacy.

This #SmallBusinessMonth I'm celebrating the small businesses in and around Guelph that make it feel like home.

Local businesses create good jobs and are a big part of what makes our communities so vibrant.

As a former small business owner myself, I love living in Guelph where our community makes an extra effort to support local businesses.

What we should be working on
YouTube video by Mike Schreiner What we should be working on

Life in Ontario is more expensive than ever and the Ford government is focused on bike lanes, tunnels and speed cameras.

We need a government that's focused on the real affordability problems people are facing.

The Ford government has a chance to take meaningful action to end homelessness by passing @aislinnclancy.bsky.social and @lfairclough.bsky.social's bill today.

I encourage my fellow MPPs to read their powerful op-ed before we vote later today.

Every child in Ontario has the right to safety. support and care.

Dress Purple Day reminds us that supporting children and families takes a community. It is important to let young people know that we see them, we hear them and we are here to support them.

If you're someone who's able to give a little more, please consider joining me in supporting great local organizations like missions who feed the hungry or your local food bank.

It's hard to overstate just how far backwards the Ford government has taken us on climate.

The rest of the world is using the shift toward renewables to generate jobs and prosperity, meanwhile the Premier has no plan at all.

Sending my best wishes to the Jewish community for Yom Kippur.

Marked by fasting and repentance, the Day of Atonement offers an opportunity to look forward with hope to the year ahead. Yom Kippur reminds those of all faiths of the importance of self-reflection and renewal.

As a former farm kid, it's great to meet a young farmer keeping the family tradition alive.

I had the chance to chat with Austin from TruPure Farms about the challenges of getting started as a young regenerative farmer in Ontario.

And we will continue to fight against harmful legislation, like Bill 5, which undermines Indigenous rights and respectful nation-to-nation relationships.

Thank you to the team at the Woodland Cultural Centre for the hospitality and their work honouring and teaching Indigenous history.
