It was a pleasure touring the @agotoronto and seeing how this wonderful gallery operates behind the scenes. The federal government is investing $25 million towards their new expansion to build 30% more space for exhibits and be an energy-efficient building.

It was an absolute joy to see all our neighbours at the Back to School Park Pop-Up in Bayview Village Park. Wishing kids, teachers, and staff a terrific first day back to school! Big shout-out to @TPS33Div @BVAssociation @TIRFrugby for joining and bringing our community together.

Unions fought for the rights we rely on today; maternity leave, fair wages,  safer workplaces, paid sick days. This #LabourDay, we honour those hard-won victories and commit to the work ahead so that no one who puts in an honest day is left behind.

I was thrilled to see the work that goes on behind the scenes at IKEA and meet the wonderful staff that keeps this place running so well. They opened in 1987 and been a community staple ever since. If you’re anything like me you didn’t make it past the frozen yogurt.

It was a pleasure to chat with neighbours at our Park pop-up in Cresthaven Park about how we can keep making DVN a better place for everyone. Bit of weather but a bit of weather isn’t going to stop Don Valley Northerners. Love everyone for coming to say hi and share ideas!

It was a pleasure meeting the Canada Summer Jobs students at @TIRFrugby to learn about how they’re using rugby as a tool to help make our communities more happy, healthy, and vibrant. I broke the tackle line, goose stepped off my left foot, fended my way over the try line.

I was thrilled to announce on behalf of Hon. @MarjoriePLC, Minister of Health, over $10 million in funding to support our community partners in building programs to reduce the risk of chronic disease, leading to longer and improved quality of life for Canadians. More info: here
