To all of the women that are survivors of rape, sexual assault, and abuse in all of its forms, I see you, I hear you, I support you, and I will always fight with you. On your terms. #BelieveWomen #BelieveSurvivors

in his final letter to Canadians.

"My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world."

Thank you Jack. Canada misses your leadership. 🧑

This picture from 2008 is of me and my political mentor, the former Member of Canadian Parliament and former NDP leader Jack Layton. Today is the 14th anniversary of his passing. He had a good heart and always lead with compassion and a moral compass. I will never forget the last words he e wrote

A real man won't just love you when it's easy. A real man will love you when things are going well and on your bad days. A real man will love all of you, including the parts you may not love about yourself. β™₯️

There's that word again. I don't think you know what "chose" means.

Right. She chose to warn people about what was coming (which we see happening) if Trump were to get elected and "chose" to "allow" Mango Mussolini to run over Americans (quite literally in fact). Make it make sense.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

That and the fact that there are no adults in the room to stop him.

It's not just about Trump's policies. One can disagree and still respect the person. It's the fact that his policies, every single one, are purposely rooted in fascism and hatred. Those aren't ideas. They're pure bigotry. That's the big problem.

This was awesome. Thank you to my good friend Cory for bringing the Basketball Super League championship trophy, the Super Lillie, won by the Sudbury Five for the city's first professional sports championship in the history of the city, for a picture. What an honour! #GoFIVEGo #NewProfilePic

That makes perfect sense. I'm hoping whatever changes he makes to bring the USA to the point of the Fourth Reich are reversible.

Do you think another possibility is because of his talk of running for a 3rd term, constitutional or not, and the fact that she is a high profile figure, that she might try to primary him, and him advising her not to run hopefully (hopefully in his mind) reduces that possibility?

Marjorie Taylor Greene dips from the Senate race.

Marjorie Taylor Greene dips from the Senate race.

My theory is that the regime leader is going to go after the Senate. He has been pushing hard to undermine any authority figures in his path. The Senate is in his path. It doesn't take much to conclude that she was told not to because he plans on going after it.

Now more than ever it's important we all stand up and fight for the rights of everyone in the face of the Donald Trump dictatorship. People that identify with the LGBTQ+ community aren't going anywhere whether he likes it or not. Wishing everyone a safe and happy Pride Month! πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

I want to report that Canadians from coast to coast, because of their generous donations, helped raise $2 million and counting to the various Walks to Make Cystic Fibrosis History, helping to invest in Cystic Fibrosis research, treatment, and access to life changing medications!

Thank you Canada!
