Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau gave an outstanding speech at #NATOPAMontreal this morning!. It’s a myth that #Liberals spend less on defence than #Conservatives. Since elected in 2015, #Canada doubled defence spending and we are on track to triple it by 2030. 1/2

I lived through Mike Harris’ so-called common sense revolution. It left #Ontario worse off: less investments in education, healthcare & housing. Nothing common sense about it - just total nonsense. Poilievre will cut services, slash benefits & take us backwards. #DavenportTO

I support the Ukrainian peoples’ right to live free in their own land. Canada stands resolute in its support of #Ukraine’s sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence. We are deeply concerned by the ongoing aggression in and around Ukraine.

Our @liberal_party government banned conversion therapy in 2022. I rose in the House of Commons to call out Pierre Poilievre's newest Conservative MP for Portage-Lisgar for defending the destructive practice of “spiritually counselling” someone out of who they love.

Hey Canadians! The Minister of Immigration has just released an important announcement on a new pathway for Hong Kong residents to apply for Canadian work permits #cdnpoli.
With young Hong Kong residents casting their eyes abroad, we want them to choose Canada. As we confront the pandemic’s second wave and chart a course for our recovery, attracting talented newcomers is a central part of our plan.

We will continue to support #Ukraine for as long as it takes! . #SlavaUkrainii.
As I said in response to @JulieDzerowicz’s question, Canada will continue to stand with Ukraine – in the short and long term. That’s why we’re investing $500 million in new military assistance for Ukraine — and extending Operation UNIFIER until 2026. #StandWithUkraine 🇨🇦🇺🇦
