It's true.
Tues night walking home from the Legislature, I happened to check the app (for some reason I didn't receive a notification) & there was the notice. It looks like this 👇

Btw I have no symptoms

The App informed me I needed to be tested for #COVID19, then isolate until I receive results.

So I checked different options & had a plan to get tested on Wednesday AM.

I’ve been tested before – when a friend tested positive. I waited 1 hour in line, 24 hours later had results
These days, we have been tracking the waiting lines so I knew it would be a different story.

Many of the assessment centres are now appointment only. I tried Mt Sinai, Western & Women’s College. All were booked up for next few days, and online booking was closed. #onpoli

I am very concerned about the antisemitic comments made on the social media accounts of a local business here in #DavenportTO. I know these comments have caused a lot of pain and anger. Antisemitism has no place in our community, or anywhere.
I also condemn the acts of vandalism and vigilantism that occurred at a protest over the weekend, including Islamophobic graffiti made on the sidewalk, in close proximity to our local mosque.
#DavenportTO is a place where people of many faiths, identities and views live peaceably together. We debate issues, we take politics seriously, but we have no tolerance for hate.

Feliz #DiadePortugal! A nossa comunidade #DavenportTO orgulha-se de ter a maior herança Portuguesa no Canadá. Este ano falta a parada do Dia de Portugal, mas espero que todos encontrem tempo hoje para celebrar e apreciar a história, cultura e gastronomia Portuguesa! Image
A Parada do #PortugalDay do ano passado foi incrível, e enquanto faremos as coisas de maneira um pouco diferente este ano, estou ansiosa para celebrar a herança portuguesa com a comunidade durante todo o mês. #DavenportTO ImageImageImageImage
Neste momento, os nossos restaurantes, cafés e lojas portugueses locais precisam do seu apoio mais do que nunca, então, que dia melhor do que o #PortugalDay para desfrutar e comer pasteis da nata, bacalhau ou Frango na brasa. #DavenportTO

Feliz Dia de Portugal! Our #DavenportTO community is proud to be the home of Portuguese heritage in Canada. This year we'll be missing the Portugal Day parade but I hope everyone finds time today to celebrate & appreciate Portuguese history, culture and food! Happy #PortugalDay Image
Last year's #PortugalDay parade was incredible, and while we'll be doing things a bit differently this year, I'm looking forward to celebrating Portuguese heritage with the community all month long.

Right now, our local Portuguese 🇵🇹 restaurants, cafes and shops need your support more than ever, so what better day than #PortugalDay to enjoy some pasteis da nata (custard tarts), bacalhau (codfish) or Frango na brasa (Portuguese chicken). #DavenportTO

TWO YEARS!

What a privilege it is to represent #DavenportTO.

From the great communities of Beaconsfield, Little Portugal, Dundas W, Dufferin Grove, Bloordale, Junction Triangle to Carleton Village, Northcliffe, Regal Heights, Fairbank, Corso Italia and on and on....

On this 2nd anniversary of my election, I’m missing the school fairs, festivals, Portugal Day Parade & all the ways we celebrate our amazing diversity & neighbourhoods☀️ 🇵🇹

And I’m so grateful to represent a community that comes together in such difficult times.

Thank you!
I’m also honoured to work so closely with education workers, families & students to strengthen our publicly funded schools, as Ontario’s Official Opposition Education Critic. .... and through some of the most difficult times in our history.

Such a privilege. #onted #2years Image

📢Call to action! Like many Ontarians, I was shocked that, in the midst of COVID-19, Doug Ford would try to ram through a bill that makes it *easier* to evict people. Watch what I said about it in the Legislature & read on to learn how you can help: 1/4

I challenge @hockeyesque @AndrewCash @Steph4schools to join me!

Donate whatever you can! #onpoli
My kid helped me out, and Stevie Licks too. Even had a chance to catch up with a few neighbours like @hownowinternet (at a safe distance of course).

Our community is so incredibly giving and generous. Way to go #DavenportTO! ImageImageImage
