It was wonderful to be in North York with @LilyChengTO to celebrate Food Hall TO. It is a dedicated space for fresh, new food vendors to start their businesses. Check it out at foodhallto.com Congratulations to all the vendors!
Libraries are a gateway to the city and to the world. I used to study at the Reference Library in a sweater and jeans, fun to return in a new outfit for @ TPL_Foundation's BiblioBash last night to celebrate and support the vital role libraries play in our city's life.
🌸 🆚 🐐 Tough choice. Why not both?!

This morning, I had the opportunity to open the 20th Annual Summer Institute on Early Childhood Development. I can think of no better way to start the day than joining with so many committed early childhood education workers and experts. Thank you so much for having me.
Find the nearest open park washroom with the interactive map on toronto.ca/parkwashrooms. Most seasonal washrooms are now open with the rest set to open by the end of next week.
Today, we gathered to mark the National Day of Mourning for workers killed or injured. A day on the job shouldn’t be your last. When you clock out it shouldn’t mark the start of a serious illness or injury. While today we mourn, the work for change continues.
This evening, we hosted members from the Jewish community at City Hall to mark Passover and celebrate our shared goals of keeping Toronto a global beacon for hope. Thank you all for coming. Chag Pesach sameach!
Introducing your enhanced sidewalk litter bins, Toronto! 👇😃 We found that a lot of waste was getting stuck in the opening of bins so these beauties feature a wider opening, stronger materials & two garbage options per bin to reduce recyclables being contaminated. Check it out!
Today, Blackhurst Community Centre (@ADBCC777) celebrated the signing of their lease for a larger space in the new Mirvish Village at Bloor and Bathurst. This Black-led organization does critical work to reclaim space, build up pride, and fight for economic and social justice.
Great to join the Morning Zoom on @zoomerradio this morning. Thanks for the spirited conversation about a wide range of issues. Always a great way to start the day. ☕️
📣 TODAY
It was wonderful to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Association of Chinese Canadian Entrepreneurs this weekend. You have been promoting the spirit of entrepreneurship, innovation and social responsibility in the Chinese Canadian business community. Congratulations!
We need Toronto’s film industry to prosper because, in a world that desperately needs new ways of thinking, film cracks open our imagination of what is possible. Great to join @ACTRAToronto yesterday for their annual awards gala. Congrats to the winners and nominees!

If you’re planning to visit the cherry trees, please don’t, climb them pull on the branches or pick the blooms as this can damage the trees. 🌸 Help keep the trees healthy so we can all enjoy the cherry blossoms for years to come.
UPDATE: I've coordinated with Transportation Services (TS) to get TS staff onsite now to identify opportunities to improve congestion through traffic management changes and to ensure Bike Share staff will be available to refill local Bike Share stations often over the weekend.
No trains are running between Kipling + Jane stations due to a track-level fence fire that started around 3:30 p.m. yesterday. The fire spread, severely damaging a signaling box and communication cables critical to subway operations. TTC crews are repairing the infrastructure.
We @torontolabour @CanadianLabour @MayorOliviaChow @theJagmeetSingh & community remember, the workers who were injured, made sick or killed because of something that happened at work, on National Day of Mourning. #onlab #onpoli #DayofMourning #NationalDayofMourning

Today on the National Day of Mourning for killed and injured workers I reflect on @cupelocal79 members who show up to take care of our communities every day. Workers in the care and service professions don’t always make the news when they are injured. Let’s remember them.
Such a pleasure to join with community members and fellow councillors for @MayorOliviaChow ‘s Passover Reception last night at City Hall. Wishing a Chag Pesach Sameach to all those celebrating! #Passover #TOpoli

#ICYMI– 1,000+ enhanced litter bins are being rolled out across Toronto by the end of 2024. City litter operations run 20hrs/day & we found that many bins weren’t full but waste was stuck in the openings. These new bins have wider openings & other features that improve them. 👇
James, you were a wonderful MC. It was a sincere pleasure to join you, @MayorOliviaChow and so many leaders of our city’s Jewish community to celebrate Passover. Let’s keep working together to bring our city together. Chag Pesach Sameach to you and your family.
