Powerful words Soraya Martinez Ferrada in QP. Thank you for sharing your story. It’s about choice. Always has been, always will be. 🙏🏽

Le Canada est un pays de liberté et d’opportunité – dont le droit des femmes de choisir.

C’est personnel pour moi. Parce que je sais c’est quoi de ne pas avoir de choix.

C’est l’histoire de ma vie. 👇🧵

Canada is a land of freedom and opportunity – including a woman’s freedom to choose.

I take this personally. Because I know what it’s like not to be able to choose.

It’s the story of my life.

A thread 👇🧵

While Conservative MPs were marching to take away women’s rights, I asked which MPs would stand and fight to ensure a woman always has the right & freedom to choose what happens to her own body.
Conservatives sat & laughed, we don’t think rolling back women’s rights is funny.

Pierre’s Conservatives are too embarrassed to talk about their housing “plan.”

For 8 months they have been delaying the debate in Parliament.

I think they’ve realized their slogans and tax increases won’t build homes.

Why do you think they won’t debate it?

Plus de 25 000 aînés qui n’avaient pas d’assurances dentaires auparavant ont maintenant reçu des soins dentaires grâce au Régime canadien de soins dentaires.

More than 25,000 seniors, who didn’t have insurance before, have now received dental care because of the Canadian Dental Care Plan.

Ce soir, des Canadiens de tout le pays étaient sur la Colline du Parlement pour célébrer le Mois du patrimoine asiatique. Nous avons rendu hommage à l'incroyable héritage et à la richesse culturelle des générations de Canadiens d'origine asiatique dans nos communautés!

Canadians from across the country gathered tonight on Parliament Hill to celebrate Asian Heritage Month! Together, we honoured the incredible heritage that generations of Asian Canadians have left in our communities, and celebrated the richness and vibrancy of Asian cultures.

Je tiens à être extrêmement claire: notre gouvernement soutiendra toujours le droit des femmes à choisir. Cette question n’est pas sujet à débat. Lorsque les député.e.s conservateurs se joindront au lobby anti-avortement ce jeudi, ils ne pourront pas dire la même chose.

I want to be crystal clear with Canadians, our government will always support a woman's right to choose. This should never be up for debate. When CPC MPs join with the anti-abortion lobby this Thursday, they can't say the same.

Before Smith’s red tape rollout, Alberta was once home to 70% of Canada's renewable projects.

Now companies like TransAlta have to cancel project after project. 

What do Poilievre’s 30 AB MPs have to say about this attack on jobs?

Shameful.

L’an dernier, plus de 230 000 Canadiens ont évacué leur domicile à cause des feux de forêt.

Pour s’en sortir, on va former davantage de pompiers, doubler le crédit d'impôt pour les pompiers volontaires et les bénévoles en recherche et sauvetage et agir davantage pour le climat.

More than 230,000 Canadians had to evacuate their homes because of wildfires last year.

So, we’re training more firefighters and doubling the volunteer firefighter and search & rescue tax credits, but we’re also stepping up on climate action. That’s how we get out of this.

We understand that until recently, dental care in Canada was treated as a privilege- not a right. We want to change that. To learn more about how we are making sure Canadians get the care they need, and if you are eligible, follow the link below:

📍Whitehorse, Yukon.

J'ai annoncé un financement vital pour une cartographie des inondations plus précise et détaillée en partenariat avec Government of Yukon.

Ceci est essentiel pour se préparer et atténuer les dommages causés par les inondations.
