BREAKING NEWSπŸ’₯: The Supreme Court of Canada has REJECTED Ontario’s appeal β€” and now the youth-led #Mathur v. Ontario case is headed BACK to court!

This is a game-changer for climate justice in Canada.

No more delays. It’s time for Ontario to face the music.

This morning, I had the immense joy of voting early alongside my family and running into incredible supporters like Zakir from the Regent Park Islamic Resource Centre at the voting station. It was a special momentβ€”bringing my kids with me and showing them what democracy looks like in action.

Wishing everyone celebrating a meaningful Passover. I hope that reflecting on freedom and transformation can give communities courage to confront genocide and Apartheid in Gaza and Palestine. Chag Pesach Sameach βœ‘οΈπŸ•ŠοΈ

It’s the NDP that delivered dental care. It’s the NDP that brought in pharmacare. And it’s the NDP that is fighting to ensure every Canadian has access to a family physician by 2030. Band-aid fixes won’t do β€” we need action rooted in care and justice.

For over a decade, Liberal governments have stood by while ERs closed, family doctors became harder to find, and people were forced to choose between paying rent and filling a prescription.

In my work serving patients across Toronto Centre whether that be in shelters or the clinic in Regent Park β€” I’ve seen firsthand how our healthcare system is failing. Not because we lack the tools or the talent, but because political will has been missing.

On this International Public Health Day, I’m proud to stand with the only party truly fighting for your health β€” the NDP. As a family physician, environmentalist, and your MP candidate for Toronto Centre, I know that health is political. #TorCen

This morning I had the honour of joining NDP leader Jagmeet Singh as he announced his plan to build homes that people can actually afford. It follows yesterday's ambitious plan to fight soaring rents and protect renters.

It was so delightful to run into my old friend Joana while canvassing. We first met when I hosted her and her partner on their immigration to Canada a decade ago! She is now a Canadian citizen and excited to support me in this election.

The Canadian medical establishment should not remain silent as Israel attacks Palestinian health care facilities We are witnessing a livestreamed extermination of Palestinian life and Canadian medical organizations who proclaimed commitments to equity and human rights remain silent on Palestine.
