Many Asian communities across Toronto have unique challenges accessing mental health. Having cultural safety and being able to speak your first language is crucial to delivering effective mental health care. I want to share the https://re-aim.ca/ campaign to call on UHN to reverse this abrupt cut and invest in equitable access to mental health care. #OnPoli #Ontario #Toronto #ToPoli #NDP #OntarioNDP #TorCen #TorontoCentre
Today, on Emancipation Day, we mark 191 years since slavery was formally made illegal across the British Empire.
Today is a chance to recommit to building a society that empowers every Black Ontarian to thrive. Thank you to all the Ontarians who work to build a province that lives up to the dream of social, political, and economic emancipation. Ontario has significant work ahead to dismantle the systemic barriers that Black Ontarians face in housing, education, health care, and employment.
Happy Emancipation Day! Onwards in the work of winning freedom! #OnPoli #Ontario #Toronto #ToPoli #NDP #OntarioNDP #TorCen #TorontoCentre

This issue also invites you to attend my Education in Crisis Townhall on Monday and gives you all the provincial updates you need to stay informed. #TorCen #OnPoli https://www.kristynwongtam.ca/july_25_2025_newsletter

Today I was in Whitby for public deputations on Bill 9. This Bill intends to fix real challenges with municipal accountability, but this Bill has significant room for improvement. I hope that governments takes the feedback we heard today to heart. #OnPoli #Ontario #Toronto #ToPoli #NDP #OntarioNDP #TorCen #TorontoCentre
