Window Wonderland is back in the Junction—worth stopping for. Augmented-reality window displays by local and international artists highlight cultural storytelling and global dialogue. If you’re nearby, take a walk, support a local shop, and enjoy the art animating our streets this season❄️

The Keele Street Public School community has so much heart ❤️
Today they filled a van with food and care items for the Parkdale Community Food Bank—while also benefitting from the City’s expanded school nutrition program.
Hearts (and bellies) are full this holiday season.

An afternoon in Parkdale with @avilewis.ca and community members, listening to cost-of-living concerns and discussing practical public alternatives to reduce household costs 📉 and improve everyday life. Time well spent!

So impressed by the community who showed up and braved the cold for today’s #RunforSudan at Sir Casimir Gzowski Park.
Grateful for the chance to welcome runners to the ward and celebrate how public spaces bring us together—for movement, connection, and humanitarian action.❤️🤍🖤💚

It was an honour to participate in the Swansea Town Hall #RemembranceDay ceremony once again.
The commemoration of folks who served in wartime is near and dear to Swansea residents.
Lest we forget🌺

Local democracy isn’t outdated – it’s how we build better schools for our kids.
If the Ford government eliminates trustees, we lose more than oversight – we lose local democracy in our schools.
Keep education close to home.

Walking tours are such a neat way to meet new people and learn more about our neighbourhoods. I had a great time sharing welcome remarks and hearing stories on the #ExperienceTO Runnymede Historic Tour with Alex Rascanu. Looking forward to the next one!

Stood together as advocates outside Queen’s Park — united in calling for safety through care, not control. From our schools to our streets, real safety means investing in people, not punishment. #CommunityCare #NoToBill33

Parents gathered at Lucy McCormick SS to demand action on harmful cuts to special education.
When class sizes grow, students with disabilities are put at greater risk. Every child deserves safety and a fair chance to learn — not a system stretched beyond its limits, where parents bear the burden.

Grateful to organizers for bringing us together today 💛 Kids’ safety is non-negotiable 🚸 Speed cameras save lives. Removing them near schools puts kids at risk. #safestreets #safeschools

At the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in High Park with Philip Cote: sacred fire, buffalo stew, and teachings. His words on identity, belonging & responsibility as pathways to peace stayed with me.

Honoured to join the 29th Annual BWV Ukrainian Parade. From teachers exploring Holodomor education resources to youth lit up with belonging, the day showed the strength of community.

Students & educators aren’t asking for police in schools—they’re asking for belonging, care & support from trusted adults. That’s how you build safety & success. #NoToBill33

Congrats to the Karma Sonam Dargye Ling community on 10 years of Tibetan Language Summer Camp, hosted in local schools! 🎉 Honoured to celebrate this year’s top achievers. As Lama Tenzin shared, the freedom to speak Tibetan is a cherished right—and every learner strengthens cultural preservation.
