As #NationalPoliceWeek comes to an end, I want to express heartfelt thanks to #HamOnt Police & RCMP for all you do to ensure our safety & security.
Thank you Cst Burgess of Hamilton Police for taking me on a ride-along to see firsthand the situations officers deal with daily.

Tomorrow, May 5, is the last day to get your #SmileCookie from Tim Hortons . Proceeds support Hamilton Food Share & Food4Kids Hamilton ! It was fun to decorate smile cookies with Anna from Food Share in #StoneyCreek this morning.

Great conversations at Mohawk College today. We know young adults need support to afford renting or owning a home.

On this National Day of Mourning, we remember & honour those lives lost or injured due to a workplace tragedy. Everyone should feel safe at work. Today, and everyday, let’s reaffirm our commitment to ensuring safe workplaces.

The #HamOnt Beach Community Clean Up is one of my favourite annual events! This is the 15th year I’ve organized it and while the weather wasn’t the best today, we still had 50 people turn out. Thanks to all who picked up extra bags to continue the efforts in the days to come!

Happy #EarthDay ! Thanks to everyone who joined me this weekend for the annual #HamOnt Davis Creek Community Clean Up! It was great to see so many families come out and model for their children the value of volunteering and of taking care of our planet.

It’s #NationalVolunteerWeek !

Today, the federal government released an ambitious Housing Plan to build more homes, faster – and solve the housing crisis.
We’re making it easier to build more homes by cutting costs & red tape for builders, changing the way they build homes, and growing the workforce we need.

Our Government has a real plan to solve the housing crisis. By changing the way homes are built & increasing supply, we can bring down prices. This is great news for younger generations.

Thanks to SPRC Hamilton
