Councillor's Corner - March 2021

Dear Resident,

I want to wish those celebrating Easter a happy holiday.

Please remember to celebrate significant dates with those you live with and connect with those outside your household by phone or online. Let's continue to prioritize current health and safety measures so that we can get through this together.

Happy spring. Remember to take needed time outdoors by going for walks or bike rides for fresh air in your neighbourhood.

Please maintain physical distancing and follow all public health measures. In honour of Earth Day on April 22, please visit: earthday.ca/events/ or, www.toronto.ca/ for virtual events and safe outdoor opportunities to connect with nature.
