Lawn signs are a great way to start conversations with your neighbours about the importance of public healthcare, affordable housing, and environmental protections. Available at our website or come visit our community office!

Talking to neighbours about what is happening in our communities is a great way to raise political awareness and help people re-engage with the democratic process. Join us for a canvass sometime 🍊

A huge thank you to the parents and neighbours who stood with us yesterday calling on the Ministry of Environment for accountability and action on the black soot issue. Hamiltonians deserve clean air and a healthy future 🧡

Capital investments are appreciated, but we can’t run our hospitals without safe staffing ratios and sustainable operational funding. The Ontario NDP has a plan to fix our hospitals. We need an Ontario government that will listen to the front-line workers on the ground!

Last Friday I sent another letter calling on the Minister of Environment to meet urgently to discuss black soot and Hamilton’s air quality. We will keep pushing until we get the response Hamiltonians deserve.

It’s been a week since I wrote to the Minister of Environment and still no response. Please continue to share your stories and report directly to MECP. (filmed before the wildfire smoke descended on Hamilton - with today’s poor air quality, limit time outdoors and wear a high quality mask)

This isn’t a radical take. This is what Hamiltonians deserve. We will keep pushing to reduce industrial pollution, ensure our Ministry of Environment takes action to protect the public, and boldly confront the climate crisis.

Together with more than 140 co-signatories and endorsements, I call on the Minister of Health to put community safety above ideology, to confront the toxic drug crisis with every tool available to us - including harm reduction and treatment, and to re-open lifesaving services in our communities.

Thank to you all of the neighbours who have shared stories and pictures about black soot. We continue to work on this issue and it is a priority for us. So far, this is what we have received as an update from MECP. We have not yet secured a meeting with the Minister but have requested one urgently.

Thank you to everyone who has reported the impact of black soot on your homes and neighbourhoods. We will continue to advocate for the transparency, accountability and, most importantly, the action you need to address this concern.

It may look like we’re door-to-door canvassing to get signatures for nurse-to-patient ratios, but really I’m just out here trying to find the cast of Heated Rivalry filming season 2 🔥

A reminder that in 2025 the Conservative government passed legislation that took away the requirement for them to have a climate action plan, greenhouse gas emission reduction targets, and any public accountability. Climate change is the greatest threat to human health of our time.
