Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on all that we have to be grateful for, but also to remember those in our community who may be going through difficult times. From my family to yours, wishing everyone a safe, happy and meaningful Thanksgiving! 🍁🦃

🚨 4 Mississauga fire trucks out of service today. We’re going backwards, staffing our fire service like it’s 2005. This is not safe. Meanwhile, they still refuse to release response time statistics despite repeated requests. Show us the numbers.

I'm appalled by the violent incident involving one of Councillor Tedjo's volunteers. I spoke with Councillor Tedjo this morning to offer my best to the volunteer as they recover. It is imperative that everyone feel safe and able to participate in the democratic process.

Six fire trucks out of service today due to staffing shortages and that doesn’t include other trucks unable to respond because of training. They continues to roll the dice with the safety of Mississauga residents and our firefighters. Enough is enough.

Mississauga residents deserve transparency about the resources available when they call 911. The City says fire crews are responding within four minutes more than 75% of the time. We would like to see the current data supporting that claim. Staffing matters Public safety matters

Enough is enough. Kids under 16 are riding e-scooters on our streets, and enforcement isn’t working. Mississauga should end the e-scooter pilot before someone gets seriously hurt. Kids’ safety comes first. Period. #Mississauga #Ward7 #EScooters #KidsSafety – at Mississauga, Ontario

I strongly condemn this disturbing incident involving Salma Zahid and her family. While the circumstances are still being investigated, no one should have to go through something like this. 🧵 👇

Regardless of our political views, we must remember that there are real people behind the positions we see in public life. We can disagree with politicians, debate passionately and hold elected officials accountable, 🧵👇

but that disagreement must always be rooted in respect and civility. #Canada is stronger when we treat one another with dignity, even when we don’t see eye to eye.
