February 13th, 2020 – Flag Raising Ceremony of the 55th National Flag Day of Canada
Community Flag Raising
Ceremony!
National Flag Day of Canada, or Flag Day, is a day where we celebrate & honour our Canadian Flag that made its first debut on February 15th, 1965.
Canada’s flag, the red and white maple leaf, is a symbol that unites all
Canadians and reflects the common values we hold so dear – equality, diversity and inclusion. I hope that you will join me as we proudly raise our Maple Leaf flag.

Representatives will be setting up booths where you can obtain information and ask questions about the services they provide; discuss issues of interest to you; and, express your concerns.
I would like to invite residents to a free Community BBQ in support of the campaign against the closure of the Obstetrics and In-Patient Pediatrics Departments at the Scarborough Hospital – Birchmount Site, affectionately known in our community as the “Scarborough Grace”.
The Save The Grace Community BBQ will be hosted at the Kidstown Water Park (3159 Birchmount Rd [Birchmount/McNicoll]) on Friday, June 14th from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Please join me and the doctors of the Scarborough Hospital – Birchmount Site as we continue to fight against these hospital closures.
Ward 22 All-Schools Traffic Safety Community Meeting
As your City Councillor, I have continued to be engaged with all community schools regarding school zone traffic safety measures. At the last Scarborough Community Council meeting, Brookmill Boulevard Junior Public School received approval for new traffic safety measures. They now join two other schools which received new traffic safety measures during the previous term of Toronto City Council.
Ward 22, Scarborough-Agincourt will be experiencing residential and commercial developments over the next few years. In order to keep residents well-informed of the upcoming developments in our community, my office will be hosting a Ward 22 All-Development Community Meeting. Residents are welcome to come and view proposed development plans and ask questions of representatives of the development sites, City Staff, and me.
