I’m often emotional at the finish line, but receiving my Ottawa Marathon medal from Dhanushka Wickramasinghe was very touching and moving. As a husband and father, I was heartbroken by his unimaginable loss. I am still fundraising to support this kind and inspiring man as he rebuilds his life. Watch this story to learn more. You can donate to support Dhanushka here: https://t.co/6m24k38pBs

In light of today’s news, I am reposting the statement signed by 85 faith leaders from throughout our community. We must continue to work together to resist division, support each other as neighbours, prevent hatred and racism, and make Ottawa safe for all residents. Let’s all resolve to treat our neighbours with kindness and respect.

A heartfelt thank you to @DymonStorage for their generosity in this year’s #GivingTuesday campaign.

This is our 6th year working together on this campaign, & your dedication and commitment to community engagement to support our most vulnerable people does not go unnoticed.

Minister @SylviaJonesMPP confirms @ONgov is reverting back to a 75 (province) - 25 (municipal) split for public health funding in #Ontario. Good news for #ottcity, @OttawaHealth & all members of @PHAgencies who were advocating for this important commitment. #ONpoli #AMO2023

It's been a while since we posted a #MentalHealthMusicBreak, and somehow this one just seems right this morning. Maybe take a break from scrolling for 3 minutes & enjoy this gem.

Rest easy, Gordon, and thanks for the music.

Help #Ottawa receive its fair share of provincial homelessness funding. Without it, permanent supportive housing for those on the street will have to be canceled. Support the @OttawaAlliance campaign to demand that Ottawa gets the funding it deserves: https://t.co/bBGrau23K5
