A little Christmas magic came early to my constituency office on Friday! 🎄 I had a very special guest stop by to talk about a toy drive for Scarborough—Woburn. Stay tuned—there’s more to come! 🎁

Out on this beautiful Saturday morning with @JonBurnside_DVE, connecting with residents and community members. Great to see people from across the community coming together, sharing ideas and working toward a stronger, more connected neighbourhood!

For over 12 years, Chantal Soucy represented her community in the National Assembly of Québec — advancing local priorities like infrastructure, housing, and agriculture. We're thrilled to welcome her as our Liberal candidate for the upcoming by-election in Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot—Acton.

Twelve years ago today, Corporal Nathan Cirillo was killed while standing sentry at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Several others were injured. Two days earlier, in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec, Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent was killed in a separate attack. The attacks of October 2014 left a lasting mark on our country, but they did not change who we are. pm.gc.ca/en/news/statements/…

Jean-Sébastien Vallée est un militant des droits de la personne et un leader communautaire qui sait apporter des solutions sérieuses à des défis complexes. On est ravis de l’accueillir en tant que candidat libéral pour l’élection partielle dans Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie.

Thank you to the Filipino Canadian Coalition for a thoughtful conversation about their pre-budget submission. I appreciated hearing their ideas for supporting entrepreneurs, opening doors for skilled professionals, and investing in spaces that bring communities together.

This morning, I met with faith leaders from across Canada, brought together by @one_in_canada. Faith leaders are often on the front lines of serving their communities. It’s important that the voices and experiences they hear back home are part of the conversations we have here in Ottawa.

The Canadian flag will fly at half-mast on federal buildings across Canada. All Canadians stand with the service members at CFB Wainwright, their families, and their community.

This is not something Canada can afford to ignore. CBC’s reporting exposes allegations of neo-Nazi ideology, antisemitism, racial hatred and discussions of violence within Second Sons Canada. Hate groups cannot be allowed to recruit, organize and spread their poison unchecked. Authorities, institutions and communities must take this threat seriously and act decisively against violent extremism. apple.news/ADVT90iVES7CB2F2K…

On the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we remember the children who never returned home and honour the survivors, families and communities who continue to carry their lasting impacts. We recognize the pain of the residential school system and the responsibility we all share to listen and learn.

The world has lost a giant. The Mighty Sparrow was a once-in-a-generation talent whose voice, storytelling and brilliance helped bring Calypso to the world. My deepest condolences to his family, friends and the countless people who loved his music. Rest in peace, Mighty Sparrow. Your music and legacy will live on forever. 🇬🇩🇹🇹🕊️

Great joining the wonderful Prime Minister of Barbados in support of the Grant Morris Foundation and its important work. Prime Minister Mia Mottley continues to demonstrate tremendous leadership—not only in Barbados and across the Caribbean, but on the global stage. A wonderful evening for a great cause!

VIA Rail’s decision to drastically reduce service at Guildwood Station will make travel harder for thousands of residents. Scarborough deserves better. Scarborough MPs are calling on VIA Rail to restore service, consult our communities, and ensure Scarborough is not left behind. @VIA_Rail #scarborough
