QUOTES BY Jahlil Okafor


As Canadians who proudly demand the equal treatment of minorities, religious freedom, gender equality and basic human rights for its citizens - allowing our political leaders to shamefully ignore these values in the name of business abroad, falls short of the high standard we rightfully set for ourselves.

Oh, I think Canadians look like all sorts of people. That's the beauty of Canada.

Inequality is on the rise in Canada and those at the top have no idea what life is like for most Canadian families.

Communities and workers should be partners at the table, not waiting on the sidelines while government and the fossil fuel industry dictate climate policy.

We have to fight climate change like we actually want to win.

We must again be the party that inspires Canadians, that makes their hearts beat faster.

I have long been an advocate for peace and human rights in Canada and around the globe.

There is no excuse for inaction in the face of economic injustice.

Fighting for human rights, a commitment to social justice and treating people with dignity are all things that are important to us as Canadians.
