Thank you Senator, for keeping #communitybenefits on the agenda!
Although #C344 stalled due to the 2019 election, it would have required @PSPC_SPAC to consider the provision of community benefits in its procurement processes. I asked @jyduclos: does your department consider #CommunityBenefits?⬇ ow.ly/wZuj50PYJep #CdnPoli #SenCA @TCBN_TO

Agreed. A focus on the missing middle would also benefit many with extended families who would prefer to have their private space within a larger family home.
Unable to downsize, more seniors are living in larger homes with empty bedrooms. This is why missing middle housing - affordable homes in existing neighbourhoods, usually with a smaller floor plate - are an important part of the housing ecosystem. We need choices for all stages of life.

Yes! That's Mayor Tory at Black History Month Celebration at City Hall. #BHM2023 #torontopoli
I am deeply hurt to learn about this. Patricia is such a bright spot on television - smart, competent, caring, and I've always admired her. That she's been treated this way and for so long is a travesty. I send my love. #justice #equity #diversity #inclusion
