It's not about what makes YOU feel good, it's about fundamental human rights. Not one single person in this country should be forced to access donated or left over food. Corporate waste and individual giving will not solve issues that should be addressed through public policy. – at Toronto, Ontario
Heading to the store to pick up some things for Thanksgiving dinner? If you’re able to, consider grabbing an extra item or two for the local food bank and help a family in need. This long weekend, let’s continue to be there for one another - it’s the Canadian way.

TCDSB back to school parent registration starts: 69% of parents selected face to face and 27% selected virtual school. We are adding 64 staff to the 36 schools in high risk covid19 areas to get cohorts down. Trying to leverage larger spaces to keep students put. #topoli #onted

No, these aren’t COVID cases – these are #eviction applications filed in Toronto. Over 20k in 2018 alone. Our new report shows which areas had the most filings prior to COVID. With the eviction moratorium up, we need action to avoid #COVIDevictions Report ow.ly/W3bf50B3FXN
