It was a pleasure to meet with @SenMoodie last week to discuss child & youth rights and Bill S-217 regarding the establishment the Office for a Federal Commissioner for Children and Youth.
We continue to take action to limit the spread of #COVID19 in #Mississauga:
✔️Face coverings will now be mandatory in all indoor common areas of apartment and condo buildings
✔️Restaurants can welcome a maximum of 100 guests and no more than 10 people can be seated at one table.
Nobody should go to bed hungry!
Let's get together and aim to raise awareness and much-needed funds to assist the vulnerable members of the community who are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Join the #BramptonStrongChallenge and help those in need.
