    This is my last post. I joined Twitter back in 2009. Then it was an incredible platform that allowed 2-way communication with you. It allowed me, for the 1st time, to truly develop a relationship with you. Now, X leads the way in using you and me to foment hate & division .../2

    I'm begging @fordnation to understand he is premier of ALL Ontarians, not just business, friends, lobbyists & party loyalists. You are also the premier of the middle class, indigenous peoples, at risk-teens, new moms, students, the homeless & even those who didn't vote for you.

    First they came for the environment, but I did not speak out because it was not my backyard. Then they came for healthcare, but I did not speak out because I was not sick. Then they came for labour and education…but….#EnoughlsEnough! #CUPE #negotiatenotlegislate

    Suspicious why @fordnation keeps pushing the 413/Bradford Bypass with questionable stats. THERE'S ALREADY a state-of-the-art highway that can relieve gridlock...the 407! Want to save farmland & a lot of money Doug? Lower 407 tolls to something near reasonable & watch what happens

    Earlier today I was walking down Bay St. near Gerrard. There was a homeless man sitting on the ground leaning against the wall holding an empty Tim’s cup out. He recognized me and said “Hi Kevin”. I stopped. He told me his name was Glenn. Then he said something that shook me..

    Replying to @KevinFrankish
    I learned Glenn is living with mental heath issues that make him unemployable. He has no family. I hope what I said was the right thing. Watch for Glenn please, or anyone who may be like him. Glenn has as much right to be here as anyone. “There, but for the grace of God, go I”

    I wish we could stop calling these people truckers. They are not. Some may be but the majority of truckers (read almost all of them) have been out moving goods and keeping our shelves full. ##NotTruckers

    Starting a petition. Dear @TimHortons, we understand that you need to offer a menu filled with variety however we are asking you for a separate line/drive-thru for customers ordering just coffee and/or doughnuts.

    Despite dealing with my depression in some great ways, had a panic attack just now for the first time in months. Luckily had a friend who helped me through it. Realize you can work on depression but don't be surprised or discouraged if you fall back. Be gentle with yourself.
