14 years since my friend #JackLayton passed. Jack came down for my by-election in 2002, where we beat the odds. Like Jack, I am the optimist and the #NDP can return, for years we built “Never let them tell you it can’t be done.” JL

Windsor is on the front lines of Trump’s tariffs, being the hub of North America’s auto manufacturing. As Stellantis shuts down for two weeks, I can't imagine the worry families are feeling.

As part of our plan to protect Canadian auto jobs, we will exempt Canadian-made, Windsor-made vehicles from the GST to support local manufacturing and encourage Canadians to buy Canadian vehicles. Our auto workers have always delivered for Canada, and we need to deliver for them.

I wrote the Competition Commissioner to about grocery store price gouging during this trade war. Grocery chains in Canada have a history of this —such as bread price-fixing or overcharging for underweighted meat.

As we increasingly choose to "Buy Canadian" and travel to the U.S. less, many of our small, family-run Duty Free stores are feeling the impact. I stand with the industry as they urge the government to reaffirm their export and tax-free status. Let’s not let them be a casualty in this trade war.

The Liberals came down to Windsor and tried to pull one over on #OjibwayNationalUrbanPark. 1 - used fear to try and push $ at risk, 2 - have no agreement in place with City, 3 - stated timeline of 2025 like they did 2 years ago, 4 - since locking us out of Parliament my Bill is stuck in Senate 😱🙄👎

Flight attendants in Canada are still fighting back against unpaid work with CUPE’s Unpaid Work Won’t Fly campaign. I stand with them and the NDP in demanding fair pay.

I've heard from many about the price gouging + abuse they've faced from Rogers, from hidden fees to hikes. Even if you're not a customer, their monopoly impacts you. Rogers raked in $558m in profit in 3 mos — off your backs. This is corporate greed, & it must be held to account.

Below is my statement on Justin Trudeau’s resignation. If you oppose callous Conservative cuts. If you oppose the rich getting richer while everyone else falls further behind. Stand with the NDP this time: ndp.ca/fightback
Graphic that reads: "Justin Trudeau has let you down, over and over. 

He let you down on the cost of housing and groceries. 

He let you down on fixing health care. 

It doesn’t matter who leads the Liberals.  They don’t deserve another chance. 

Conservatives are jumping at the opportunity to take from you and give more to CEOs. 

 You will pay the price of Poilievre's cuts. 

 If you oppose callous Conservative cuts; if you oppose the rich getting richer while everyone else falls further behind – stand with the NDP this time.  

You can have a government that works for you for a change."

Last week I met with Tal Czudner to get updates on operations at the Windsor-Detroit Tunnel! Did you know that the tunnel is publicly owned by the cities of Windsor & Detroit? It generates dividends for the City, which are reinvested back. This was a victory we fought for when I served on Council.

Look at that! Page 51 of the 2021 Conservative Platform (it’s still on their website). Pierre Poilievre voted against the GST tax holiday for you. But he campaigned on it. Was he dishonest then or now? I'd say both.

I visited our local CUPW workers, who’ve had no choice but to strike. They often work late into the night, which means delivering mail in the dark, posing a risk to their safety, and keeping mail out of the hands that need it. I support their call to have the mail delivered earlier, it makes sense!
