Today's announcement that contraception will now be free in Canada is an extraordinary and historic win for reproductive rights! It means that more people will have the means to decide whether, with whom and when to have children. It means savings for our healthcare system.

International assistance isn't only about extending a helping hand—it's crucial for global security. Tackling poverty and supporting healthcare, education, food security & human rights fosters stability worldwide. Let's strengthen security through global cooperation.
Steven Chase@stevenchase

Pierre Poilievre says he would cut international aid to generate more dollars for defence spending. Specifically, he says he would "cut wasteful foreign aid that goes to dictators, terrorists and multinational bureaucracies" and "put that money into reinforcing our military, [to] bring our money home."

Canada needs cohesion in our policies to support queer folks. We stand stand globally in support but our broken system lets individuals down. This gay Ugandan in Edmonton faces deportation and fears jail or death over anti-LGBTQ law thestar.com/politics/gay-u… via @torontostar
