I would like to congratulate my colleague Kristyn Wong-Tam on their re-election as the Member of Provincial Parliament for Toronto Centre.
I look forward to continuing our work to build a community where everyone can thrive with the supports they need from both the provincial and municipal
governments.
Join the Federation of Metro Tenants and learn about your rights under the law, meet other tenant leaders and strategize to take action against bad landlords!

A new mural is coming to Central Neighbourhood House, and we need your feedback! In response to community feedback, the site for the mural–a project from my 2024 Participatory Budgeting exercise–has been moved from 237 Gerrard Street East to Central Neighbourhood House (349 Ontario Street), which offers a larger canvas.
Please fill out this survey to provide feedback on the mural location and theme.
You might not know it from the recent rollercoaster of weather, but spring has arrived in Toronto. Hot on its heels, our first Environment Day is happening at Allan Gardens on May 10, the Underpass Park Farmers' Market is opening May 14, and patio season begins right around the Victoria Day weekend. Let’s get out, enjoy our open spaces, support local businesses, and celebrate the warmer weather!
The pedestrianization of two blocks of Church Street this summer is a major initiative that I have been working on with the Church-Wellesley Business Improvement Area. From June 19 - August 21, Church Street will be pedestrianized between Wellesley Street East and Alexander Street. To date, over 2,200 people have signed a petition in support of this, and I invite you to add your support by visiting the Toronto Centre Projects website.
