    Doesn’t matter what political stripe you are, the idea that a political leader needs a bulletproof vest to deliver a speech in Canada should really upset you. Less vitriol, less tolerance of extremism, less anger please. More ideas. More tolerance. More respect, please. #elxn43

    This is a federal Cabinet Minister. More to the point, a woman... and most on point, not you. Guess what you’re not entitled to do, critique her clothing choices. Ever. Thank you. @cathmckenna slick wheels, Minister.

    Politics is a harsh gig. For those elected and the staff that support them. Be kind, folks. Real people on the other ends of these screens.

    Standing ovation for Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau commitment to continue to build on mechanisms to work with and deliver directly to municipalities so that the important work of building better lives can go on, without being held up by politics. #fcm2019

    There are now radicals on horseback, stockpiles of propane + flammables, healthcare workers told to hide + residents warning each other to stay away from major downtown intersections due to ppl inciting violence. This is coming to a scary head + must be stopped. Stay safe, folks.

    Today, I’m joining leaders from across sectors at the Prime Minister’s Economic Summit on behalf of FCM members focused on one thing: protecting Canadian jobs, businesses and livelihoods. Our communities don’t just house the economy. They power it. And we’re all in. 🇨🇦

    As an Arab I have faced similar vitriol all my life. And still, it feels surprising + hurtful that an elected official can do this, to a federal Minister no less, and still be platformed. @Twitter, let’s go. It’s islamophobic and dangerous. I’m sorry @OmarAlghabra, solidarity.

    This is a flagrantly abusive, offensive and Islamophobic tweet. It’s hate speech, full stop. There’s no justification for it on this platform, or anywhere else. Over to you again, ⁦@twitter⁩ ⁦@TwitterSafety⁩ ⁦@xcanada⁩

    Don’t say ‘this is not my Canada.’ Yes it’s a small number of goons, but the reprehensible actions + symbols on display are just the tip of the spear. Racism is pervasive + systemic here, in our Canada. It’s dangerous + not reserved to these thugs. And it must be stamped out. 1/3

    I am scared. In my city and for our country. If it ever was, this stopped being about mandates a long time ago. It’s big, vile + dangerous. I’m glad the PM called federal leaders together tonight + I hope all can summon their better angels to forge a path out of this together.

    If you didn’t wake up feeling consumed by the blatant, dangerous racist double standard on display yesterday, ask yourself why. If you’re in a position of leadership and feel cautious about naming it, ask yourself why. Learn about why. And then start doing something about it.

    Good morning @FCM_online, today begins our next chapter together. As CEO, I’m determined to engage the serious challenges we collectively face as the window for transformation I know they can be - with ambition and a relentless focus on outcomes. Let’s do this. Together. #cdnpoli

    Warning: misogynistic, abusive language in photos. 👇This is a problem. Do better @Twitter. For context, the offensive tweet was one of many, when a female federal Minister congratulated me on a women’s leadership award. We’re all so exhausted. But we’re not going anywhere.

    My family + I came to Canada to find peace. And in this country we deeply love we found opportunity and, honestly, I’ve always held July 1 close as a day of real gratitude. But what is love if not honest. If not eyes wide open. If not a deep commitment to doing the hard work. 1/5
