Is she my sister? My cousin? My long lost twin? Partner?? I can’t keep track anymore. Regardless, shes a badass, she’s covering my team’s big week of action and I couldn’t be more hyped about it! ~and you can be a part of it: rainbowequality.ca~

A key vote to advance Ontario’s Bill 42, the Gender Affirming Health Care Act, takes place tomorrow. The Ford govt's support remains uncertain, making every voice crucial. Tell them to #PassBill42. Call (416)-325-7635 or email premier@ontario.ca. #onpoli #GenderAffirmingCare
