I woke up to the best Birthday Present ever! Congratulations to all the WestJet Flight Attendants on your tentative new deal! More to come after my morning coffee ☕️ 🎉🎉🎉🎉 PS Giant hugs 🤗 to Alia and the entire WestJet Component! #StrongerTogether #Solidarity # #TentativeDeal #FlightAttendants

Nobody should have to work for free! Today I met with the WestJet Flight Attendants at the Vancouver strike centre to show my solidarity and let them know they are not alone. If a strike happens I will be there standing shoulder to shoulder! #UnpaidWorkWontFly #WestJey #FlightAttendants

Governing is about choices and values….. and ……this Liberal government is making it clear that it does not care about Canadians living with disabilities, many of whom live in legislated poverty. This is wrong and could be corrected in minutes by Minister Hajdu. It’s time to fix this debacle.

The fight for justice continues. An excellent oped from Inclusion Canada in the comments section! The Liberals are handing out billions to mega wealthy oil and gas companies but continues to punch down on Canadians Living With Disabilities! This is wrong and needs to be corrected immediately!

OTTAWA — NDP Leader Avi Lewis is promising a “hot summer” of organized labour action if the right to strike is threatened by any revisions to the Canada Labour Code. David Baxter, The Canadian Press @avilewis.ca @ndp.ca

I stand in solidarity with Flight Attendants and indeed ALL workers! Last summer Striking Air Canada Flight attendants changed history and the fight is not over to end Unpaid Work in the airline industry AND ensure the Liberals end their abusive use of section 107 of the labour code.

I stand in solidarity with workers. PM Carney is attacking workers rights to fair bargaining. Last summer they intervened against flight attendants and now they are looking at changes to the 🇨🇦 Labour Code that unions warn could weaken the Charter protected right to bargain and strike for all workers

Interesting that Mark Carney appointed a minister of AI but not one for persons with disabilities or labour. It seems he has no interest in the reality of human beings.

PM Mark Carney disregards the environment. This generation and the next deserve better than a new West Coast oil pipeline. The Liberal Government’s focus is regressive. Fossil fuel expansion that already proves to produce catastrophic results. I will always stand up for our environment!

At the Canada Labour Council Convention in Winnipeg, unions delivered a united message to PM Carney and Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu: pass NDP MP Leah Gazan’s Bill C-247 and end the use of Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code, which undermines workers’ rights to fair bargaining.

Happening Now- I’m out door knocking with our local @NDP team along with leader @Avi Lewis. We’re out on the doors in Winnipeg (Elmwood-Transcona) talking to people on the cost of living and how it’s time to stop 🛑 surveillance pricing! @ndp.ca @avilewis.ca

IYKYN - Happening now - I am in Elmwood - Transcona, where there are deep roots in the rail industry and deep roots in the NDP! The grassroots effort has started to turn this riding NDP Orange 🍊 again 🧡🧡🧡

I Stand in solidarity with People Living With Disabilities who continue to be left behind by the Carney Liberal government. Today was an opportunity to listen to disability advocates and the continued calls from the NDP to make the Canada Disability Benefit adequate to lift people out of poverty.

I agree with NDP MP Don Davies and don’t buy these excuses BC local MPs Zoe Royer and Ron McKinnon, are over seven months late and have not complied as of today. MPs are required by law to provide their conflict of interest ethics disclosure within 60 days after the final election results

Happening now — the cruel and callous treatment of persons living with a disability by the Carney Liberal government continues. It’s time to stop punching down on Canadians Living With Disabilities and restore this critical funding. @gregorrobertson.bsky.social @pattyhajdu.bsky.social

I stand in solidarity with NDP Leader Avi Lewis who today called on the Carney government to stop grocery stores from surveillance pricing that drives up the cost of food.✊✊✊ 🛑 STOP surveillance capitalism 🛑 #costofliving #groceryprices #foodprices #canada #ndp

NDP Leader Avi Lewis is meeting the moment by putting his focus and energy behind helping people during the cost of living crisis. Creating and leading the new critic role of “Cost of Living” only the NDP is here to fight for people. #costofliving

If your values are up for negotiation then you don’t actually have #Values That time I questioned the previous PM on protecting the right to choose from the Con agenda. PM Carney has welcomed floor crossing MP’s like MP Gladu who have pushed a Conservative agenda to restrict people’s rights.

This proves NOW more than ever we need a strong NDP in the House of Commons to protect women’s rights from Liberal Attacks. Clearly we now have 2 Conservative parties in parliament.

I Stand With Adrienne Smith! Hate Has No Home Here!

The results are in! Congratulations to Avi Lewis the new leader of Canada’s NDP 🧡 I look forward to working with you. Much more to say and post in my convention recap! I am so excited for the next chapter of this incredible movement. @avilewis.ca #NDP #Leadership #AviLewis #canpoli #cdnpoli

NDP Party Unity Starts with Rob Ashton! 🤝🧡 Today I joined NDP leadership candidate Rob Ashton on stage for the leadership showcase. We discussed and heard directly from Rob on how under his leadership we can fight for people vs allowing bankers, billionaires and big corporate bosses run the show.

The events in Ottawa/Parliament/Committee show how the NDP is needed NOW more than ever in Parliament working for people. #HumanRights

My heart is with all of the aviation industry after the terrible tragedy out of LaGuardia. My condolences to the families of the pilots, and my love to all the crew and passengers.💔

One year ago, Mark Carney eliminated the Minister of Disability Minister in government, this was another mistake and Canadians Living With A Disability are left behind. #FixIt Now more than ever we need a strong NDP in Parliament! See you in #YWG #NDPconvention

The Liberals are no friend to workers or working families. ❌ Flight Attendants ❌ Public Sector Workers ❌ Auto Workers Etc…. #unpaidworkwontfly

One of the gifts of living in Canada is experiencing other cultures and traditions without leaving home. Yesterday my daughter and I took in a dragon dance and a lion dance on this very special year of the fire horse. 🐎 🔥 Happy Lunar New Year! wishing you all a happy and healthy year. ❤️ 🧧

Most Canadians appreciate the critical funding announcements by the Carney liberals…. What most Canadians miss is when the same funding announcements get cut when no one is watching. Why is It that the most vulnerable always pay the highest cost when Carney Cuts.

The NDP was built by people gathering in union hall by union hall, community centre by community centre and around kitchen table by kitchen table. This is how we rebuild! #NDP

I stand in solidarity with Air Canada Flight Attendants who’s union enters arbitration. #Solidarity
