The best advice I can give @fordnation to replace @DrFullertonMPP as minister of MCCSS would be @johnjordan_lfk as he has actual experience working with various parts of MCCSS. Let’s get someone as minister who understands their ministry. #onpoli

🧵 My statement on the 2023 budget:

We can’t prepare for a better future unless we tackle the multiple urgent crises that are affecting us today: climate, housing, healthcare, mental health, and poverty.
