    Big news! My book, #RunLikeaGirl, is launching in Canada & US on September 23. It’s about having the courage to run your own race-even when it’s hard. Trying to live up to the expectations of others is no way to live or make a difference. Let’s do this!🏃‍♀️💪 #WomenLeadingonClimate

    Mike Myers playing Elon Musk on SNL and then busting out a CANADA IS NOT FOR SALE SHIRT at the end of the show is exactly the energy we need right now. 🤛❤️🇨🇦

    Disgusted by some of my former Conservative colleagues in the House of Commons standing by folks w swastikas, confederate flags, disrespecting our National War Memorial & the statue of a national hero. The point you are making is not the one you think it is. Voters will remember.

    Count your blessings if you live in Canada. Never take our democracy for granted. And never stay quiet while others die for theirs.

    I've been trying to be zen about things lately but the fact that our kids are being told to take all their stuff home and prepare for potential of online school almost TWO years into this pandemic is so enraging & such a complete and colossal failure by politicians.

    A little reminder to the small number of folks who feel the need to say hateful things as a response to anything I post: You have no obligation to follow me. Life is short. Go for a walk instead.

    It's time to retake the 🇨🇦 flag and the word freedom from folks who spread hate, preach violence, and vow to overthrow the state. Whatever your politics, we are very fortunate to live in a free & democratic society. Far too many people around the world don't have that privilege.

    While so many of us struggle to find the words to express our sadness over the many lives lost in last week's horrific plane crash, 13-year-old Ryan — who lost his beloved father, Mansour — shows unbelievable poise in the face of extreme tragedy. We can all learn from Ryan.

    This year, it will no longer be free to pollute anywhere in Canada, as we put a price on pollution to cut emissions. Our resolution is to stay focused on you, and every Canadian who works hard to make tomorrow better than yesterday, and this year better than the last.

    What happened yesterday should serve as a reminder that, more than ever, we need women in politics. Some people clearly want to chase women out of politics, but that's not going to make anything better. This isn't going to chase me out — it's going to make me work even harder.

    So, the Conservatives mocked me for being mad today. Oh yes, I am mad — mad on behalf of our kids and grandkids and the future they deserve. Conservative politicians need to stop fighting climate action and join us in fighting climate change.

    Let’s be clear. Trump 💯 wants our water, energy, forests, Arctic, farmland, vast size. We’re an amazing real estate deal to him. What he doesn’t get is that the majority of Canadians are repulsed at idea being the 51st state. Time to stand up for 🇨🇦 & build our great nation!

    If you are tweeting at me trying to justify this appalling, dangerous incident because you don't like Justin Trudeau, the Liberal Party, or progressive politicians, take a hike. Express your views at the ballot box.
