Torontonians know and recognize Hanlan’s Point, Canada's oldest continuous queer space, to be a safe, public, and precious place that has deep meaning and connection to Toronto’s 2SLGBTQ+ community.
A more equal city is a safer city
I'm one of 1.7 million people who use TTC every day. Riders and workers can, and should, be safe moving across our City.
New Year, New Budget
Happy new year! This week the City of Toronto's 2023 Budget was released. As we know, budgets convey priorities. We are still digging into the details, one thing that is clear: while people in Toronto are struggling, the choices in this budget do not do enough to make life better.
Community Safety and the 2023 City Budget
We have a duty to keep our communities safe, and the planned increase in the 2023 budget to Toronto Police Services of $48.3 million announced by the Mayor on Tuesday will not necessarily make people safer, but there are concrete investments we can make right now to increase community safety.
This is just the beginning
It’s an honour to be your new City Councillor for Toronto’s Ward 10, Spadina–Fort York. In the month since the term began I have been busy working with my team setting up our office, meeting with our local community and neighbourhood organizations, being briefed by City staff on projects taking place throughout our ward, and learning the ins and outs of City Hall.
