Was honoured to join Minister @MPPKerzner, @TPSOperations, Michael Levitt of @CanadianFSWC, Noah Shack of @CIJAinfo and Michael Mostyn of @bnaibrithcanada at the Police Headquarters, to light the fourth candle of #Chanukah with Rabbi Mendel Chaikin. Chag Sameach! 🕎

I am shocked and sadden to learn of the sudden passing of Councillor Cynthia Lai. I will always remember our collaborations on and off the Council floor. My prayers are with Councillor Lai's family, staff and the entire ward 23 community. #yorkcentre #downsview #ward6

@DANI_toronto helps adults with disabilities achieve their dreams. That is why I was more than honoured to donate 20 @DUKEHeightsBIA backpacks with supplies to the great individuals today at the Magnetic Campus. #yorkcentre #downsview #ward

I would like to take this moment to wish our community a warm and safe Thanksgiving long weekend! I am truly grateful for the opportunity to represent you all. #yorkcentre #downsview #ward6

October 5th was #TONonProfitDay. Did you know there are over 14,000 @TOnonprofits employing over 200,000 people in Toronto? Besides providing work and volunteer opportunities, non-profits deliver sought-after services, and the demand is rising. #ward6 #downsiew #yorkcentre

I was honoured to bring greetings and congratulations to the organizers, volunteers and community partners at the Fun Philippines appreciation dinner.

Great energy at yesterday's Parent Engagement Night at St. Norbert Catholic School. I always love meeting with our robust school communities! #yorkcentre #downsview #ward6

We kicked off the week with a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the expanded mural "Daily Migration", by Shalak Attack, on Tippett street. The theme of this mural is 'Earth'. A great addition to an already splendid mural. #ward6 #yorkcentre #downsview

York Centre just got a little more green! It’s important to do our part in adding to the city’s beautiful canopy. Which is why I was happy to giveaway trees today with help from the local community. #yorkcentre #downsview #ward6

[Councillor James Pasternak @pasternakyc]

I helped @bnaibrithcanada hand out 130 food packets to families as part of their food program. Thank you to all who donated for assisting your neighbours. #yorkcentre #downsview #ward6

Congratulations on your retirement. Thank you for all of your work @PC_Hoppee.

[Toronto Police Operations @TPSOperations]

Good morning,

I am officially retiring.
Today is my last day as a Toronto Police officer.
I will miss everyone, but I'm looking forward to new challenges!
I wish everyone all the best!
Take care of one another...but especially yourselves.

@PC_Hoppee out!

[Councillor James Pasternak @pasternakyc]

I attended the city's virtual panel discussion on the municipal's government's role in reconciliation. It was highly informative, a reminder that we must move toward truth and reconciliation in our policy decisions and actions every day. 2/2 #NDTR

[Councillor James Pasternak @pasternakyc]

Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day. I wore my orange shirt in memory of the Indigenous children who survived residential schools, those who never returned, and their families and communities affected by the residential school system. 1/2

This upcoming Sunday evening, Jewish families around York Centre and beyond will be gathering to commemorate the new year. Wishing you Shana Tova and a sweet new year! 🍏🍯
