It's been brought to my attention that many Ontario NDP members and members of other communities are under the impression that there was a vote, consensus, or agreement between leadership & the Ontario NDP Caucus, of which I am a member, to remove MPP Sarah Jama from caucus...🧵
It's also been brought to my attention that people have been specifically told by leadership in various conversations that I supported the decision to remove MPP Sarah Jama from the Ontario NDP Caucus. I did not support this decision for a variety of reasons.

ICYMI: Naming someone's behaviour or something they've said anti-Black, racist, Islamophobic, antisemitic, homophobic, transphobic etc is NOT bullying. Stating that someone's behaviour or something they've said is supporting racism, ableism etc is NOT bullying.
Sometimes when ple who say something, share beliefs, or act in a way that's racist, homophobic etc get confronted they CRY😢.
They may cry b/c they're embarrassed, pissed they got 'called out' or sometimes they are sincerely sorry (or confused). Their tears do NOT 🟰 bullying.

THREAD: The fake sincerity of @fordnation is genuinely enraging. He wants to act like he 'cares' so much - but is going to force kids into classrooms of 30+ DURING A PANDEMIC. #onpoli#onted
Never forget - this supposedly 'compassionate' man also:
➡️Gutted public health
➡️Cancelled basic income pilot

➡️Stopped the 50 million tree program
➡️Slashed the Indigenous Culture Fund
1/ For those of you who don't support the PCs but have been wondering how "Sarah" got your number, here's a PSA: 2/ The list comes from the Canadian Numbering Administrator & it's publicly available. People accessing this list receive the area code + first three digits of a phone number. For example, 647-484-XXXX. After that, it's guesswork: 0000, 0001,etc. That's why even Jagmeet got this:

HOUSING THREAD: 1/My office has been getting calls and emails from tenants about A/C charges. Landlords are demanding tenants pay $2-$300 dollars in order to operate an air conditioner. The main question we’re getting – is this legal? Let’s break it down.
2/Landlords can charge a monthly fee to tenants with air conditioners if they have done so every year you’ve been a tenant, or if this is your first year of tenancy. This fee must be monthly, and must be only for cost recovery for the landlord.
