Public health is part of everyday life in Toronto – even when you don’t see it!

It’s the inspections that make sure your food is safe to eat & our public pools are safe to swim in… plus services like free dental care that support eligible residents & reduce health inequities.

[Dr. Michelle Murti @TOTopDoc]

In recent years, false information online has made it harder to know which health advice to trust. Sometimes, this can make people feel less confident in evidence-based public health guidance.

That’s why I’m excited to share @topublichealth is launching “This is Public Health”…

@StatCan_eng Canadians may not realize how much local public health like #TorontoPublicHealth relies on census data to do our work. Help us help you- complete the Census!

https://t.co/hXeTAAsKAE Happy #DoctorsDay to all the dedicated physicians in Toronto. Our work at #TorontoPublicHealth would not be possible without our partnership with primary and community care and hospital doctors.

Full‑circle moment for me at the reopening of @TOPublicHealth's Sexual Health Clinic in North York.💙
I once worked at our Crossways & Jane clinic & saw how vital this care is. Sexually transmitted & blood‑borne infections make up 81% of reportable public health diseases in 2025.

Great to see national debate, and now Manitoba leadership discussing risks of our current largely unrestricted and unregulated digital culture. We need an inclusive dialogue that looks at risks across children, youth, as well as adults and seniors.

[Dr. Michelle Murti @TOTopDoc]

As we head into hotter weather, staying cool outdoors matters. Water, hats & shade all help. Natural playground designs that don’t retain heat—like those at Evergreen Brick Works & Biidaasige Park—also make a big difference, especially for kids. More info: https://t.co/FhA5ItqSKp
