- It's my privilege to announce that Viola Desmond will be the first Canadian woman on a bank note. #bankNOTEable
- Here it is, Canada, your new $10 bank note. I hope Viola's story, and this new note, remind us to celebrate the countless women who have helped transform Canada for the better.
- Did you know that Canada is now the only G7 country to have trade deals with every other G7 country? By working to create new opportunities for Canadian businesses and expand to markets around the world, we’re growing the economy and creating more middle class jobs.14 trade agreements 51 countries 1.5 billion consumers 9.3 trillion $ in combined GDP We are diversifying Canada’s trade partners and exporters because this is how we create jobs & growth. It’s #TimeToDiversify. #cdnpoli
00:00 - No Canadian should have to worry about paying bill or putting food on the table as we face #COVID19. The new Canada Emergency Response Benefit will provide $500 per week, for up to 16 weeks, for Canadians who lose income. Read more: canada.ca/en/department-…
- Canada’s newest bank note – featuring human rights icon Viola Desmond – is the best in the world! As Canadians, we can all celebrate that Viola’s story of standing up to injustice is inspiring people around the globe.
- #ScamAlert: The Government is NOT sending text messages regarding the new Canada Emergency Response Benefit. If you have received a text message regarding the benefit, do not click the link.
- Last week, we pointed out that Andrew Scheer would need to make $55 billion in reckless cuts in order to keep his promises. So today he changed his promise. If you're making up your plan for the economy on the fly, it's not a credible plan.
- Many seniors get cheques today – and usually head to banks to deposit them. I’m asking that people be vigilant in thinking about how our actions affect our vulnerable neighbours. Please consider giving seniors who are very worried about COVID-19 space at branches today.
- Marching side by side with our entire @liberal_party family to say loud and clear that: Love is Love is Love. Happy Pride Toronto - rain or shine this is one of the best days of the year! #PrideTO
- #Thread: Over the past several days, @AndrewScheer and @CPC_HQ have been sharing misinformation about Canada’s tax system. This is deeply concerning. When politicians ignore experts, and choose to favour rhetoric over facts, we all pay the price. So here are the facts:
- Hey Canada, keep your eyes peeled for the new Equality $1 coin. This is an opportunity for us all to reflect on the years of progress towards equality for LGBTQ2 Canadians, and importantly, to think about the work still to do.
- Andrew Scheer is committed to painful cuts, but he’s trying really hard not to talk about it. This video proves it. Scheer’s been caught telling a private meeting of Conservatives about his cuts plan, and promises to be “very, very careful” to hide it.
00:00 - It's disappointing, but not surprising, that @AndrewScheer and the Conservative Party are once again trying to mislead Canadians. Liberals will NOT put a 50% tax on the sale of your home.To be clear: We will NOT put a 50% tax on the sale of your home.
