Still reeling from the launch of our children’s book, HELLO CHAPATI, at @torontoWOTS yesterday. A joy to write with my sis @salimah and be so warmly welcomed into @amandaminuky’s “Hello Food” series to honour one of our favourite foods. #howdoyoulikeyourchapati #chapatitime

Last night, we also celebrated @zahraeb 's remarkable achievements as chair of the board over the past six years as she bid farewell to Park People, and the start of an exciting new chapter with Erika Nikolai as sole Executive Director. 🙂

We have a big opportunity this year: for the first time in over a decade, the Mayor has opened up the budget process to provide more opportunity for input from you before it’s drafted!

Tell the City what you want funded (or not funded) in the budget:

My thanks to all the industry experts and leaders who joined us to imagine the road to change that our country so desperately needs at the municipal level. I’m left feeling optimistic a solution for a new Municipal Growth Framework is within reach. More: https://t.co/jOSrgkCYbe

Super proud to be supporting @oliviachow’s candidacy for Mayor of Toronto. We are long overdue for people-powered, collective, creative change at city hall, and having a leader who so deeply cares about community voice.

I’m proud to have the support of @zahraeb, co-founder of Monumental and urbanist-in-residence at UofT’s School of Cities.

As a change-maker and city builder, Zahra knows that when people work together, we can win a city for everyone.

Thanks to @SEGDToronto for highlighting great public space ideas at the Artscape Daniels Launchpad! Udo Schliemann from our board was there and discussing @WaterfrontBIA projects.

[Zahra Ebrahim @zahraeb]

@JamillaMohamud great ideas and I’d add: YES to the @chiarchitecture boat tour, @TheasterGates’ Stoney Island Arts Bank, @sscacchicago’s amazing shows, walk the 606 (or bike!), eat in Pilsen, Logan Square, see @iochicago show (try for improv Shakespeare - promise it is HILARIOUS - fri/sat night)

[Zahra Ebrahim @zahraeb]

We keep running into each other @LilyCheng! Such a great conversation.

[Lily Cheng @LilyChengTO]

I was glad to participate in a panel discussion on housing and immigrantion at the Ismaili Centre Toronto with Victor Dodig, @Zahraeb, and Paul Kershaw. I shared my thoughts as a City Councillor of Willowdale, the fastest growing landing place for new immigrants.
