Orphaned laneways are unclaimed private streets which have fallen into disrepair, attracting garbage, drug paraphernalia and pests.

I'm pushing to find a way for the city to clean them up.

Construction on Harbord Street is finally almost done!

This took far too long.

After pushing for faster completion, my office is pressing for a special investigation to ensure the practices here do not reoccur.

Harbord Street Construction is winding down. This needed to go faster. #liveablecity #construction

Wishing the community housing at 25 Elm St., a service hub for disabled tenants, a very happy 40th anniversary!

The staff and tenants have done a wonderful job with the grounds, and I was glad to help with further building improvements.

This is our home, and in Toronto, this is how we stand up to those wishing to spread division and hate.

I was proud to stand in solidarity with everyone who came to Christie Pits today in opposition to intolerance.

There is no place for hate in our city. Canada is strong when we all belong.
