This petition is entitled “Endometriosis Awareness Action.” It’s got hundreds of signatures, and it’s calling for this government to recognize endometriosis as a disease that impacts women, especially BIPOC women. It is currently under-researched and underfunded.

Some 2.4 million Ontarians do not have access to family doctors, and because of this, many women struggling with endometriosis are not able to access health care here in Ontario. Some have to travel to different countries and go broke paying out of pocket for care.

This petition is demanding a response from the government to help survivors—endowarriors, people with endometriosis—to get the health care they deserve and be able to see specialists in Ontario now.

I absolutely support this petition. I’m affixing my signature and handing it over to Ishan.

As I was saying, we cannot police ourselves out of violence, and that includes our schools. So I’m going to affix my signature on this petition that’s calling for us to make more investments in teachers, education workers and mental health supports for our kids instead of militarizing our schools. They are calling for a removal of police-in-school programs across Ontario.

I absolutely support this petition. I am affixing my signature, and I will hand it over to Farhan for tabling.
