Since construction on Metrolinx’s Eglinton LRT began back in 2011, we’ve experienced Brexit, Gangnam style, the 1st photo of a black hole, 2 Trump presidencies, a pandemic, global unrest, wars, social justice movements, and now even the end of Donald and Elon’s bromance.

When Doug Ford stops actively hurting Toronto, actually works collaboratively with us toward a financially-sustainable city and supports our residents’ affordability, safety and quality of life, I’ll better appreciate his coms-driven, self-serving, comically-sized cheques.

It was a beautiful start to the morning to welcome the Portugal Day Parade to St. Clair Ave West! Our city’s Portuguese community feels like family and will always walk with them. It was also helpful to burn off the pastel de natas I ate.

La Salumeria is an Italian deli in Midtown that’s one of my favorite go to places in Toronto. And I absolutely adore its owner, Carlo Celebre. He’s truly a community icon.

There’s a community agency called Neighbourlink North York in Willowdale that hosts Taste of North York to fund helping people in need- whether they be seniors, newcomers or those suffering from food insecurity. I’m here every year because I deeply appreciate the work they do.

Ontario has a science centre that should be open but was closed prematurely and a transit station that was named for the science centre that’s closed because it was never opened. The Ford government just isn’t good at governing.

At Toronto city hall today, I arrived at Washington’s Dulles International Airport.

Today, our Jewish community exercised its right to peacefully, freely, safely and proudly express what they believe, and who they are, walking through the streets of Midtown Toronto. Together, we celebrated the arrival of a new Torah to the Chabad at Yonge & Davisville.

This is not peaceful expression protected by our Charter. This is hate. Canada’s Jewish community should never be targeted because of the actions of a foreign state. And a holocaust monument should never be vandalized. For any reason. Ever.

I love walking in the Mount Pleasant Cemetery. It’s a sacred place for those we’ve loved and lost and for the people they’ve left behind. It’s also a very special place for all of us who enjoy a place to reflect, exercise and be well.

At the Burger Shack. And for the glorious time it takes to enjoy one of their burgers, all is well.

Together, we’ve been working to ensure that Mabel’s Fables, one of Canada‘s most beloved, independent children’s bookstores, remains open in our community for many years to come. thestar.com/news/gta/mabel…

The FIFA World Cup will be fun. But as the price tag keeps going up, it cannot come at the cost of our city’s basic services and priorities.

While Doug Ford distracts the public with his performances on Fox News, this is what his government’s been doing in the dark, hidden far away from the cameras.

Torontonians need a better way to access the islands than crowded ferries. So, why not also make the ride a fun destination itself? There are studies to do and price tags to understand. But if it all works, I’m enthusiastically on Team Gondola. torontotoday.ca/local/city-hal…
