Last night I had the opportunity to attend a vigil service at the Trinity Lutheran Church hosted by the Wilmot Indigenous Relations Interfaith Working Group.

A meaningful event to end the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, with reflection and listening.

Honoured to join in the Remember Me Walk hosted by The Healing of the Seven Generations to recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

We’re extending the fuel tax suspension to help keep costs down for Canadians. More relief at the pump and lower operating costs for businesses and truckers.

Housing works best when it is paired with the supports people need to thrive. It was a pleasure to tour Friendship Village and hear about House of Friendship’s plans to create up to 230 affordable and supportive homes in downtown Kitchener. Thank you to everyone involved for their commitment to building a stronger, more inclusive community.

The safety of Canadians abroad is important. If you or someone you know is currently in Nepal or China-Tibet, the Emergency Watch and Response Centre is available 24/7 for emergency consular assistance.

Please save or share this post for anyone who may need assistance in Nepal or the China-Tibet region.

From farm fields to the future of food production, I enjoyed learning more about Upside Robotics' agricultural technology and its potential to support Canadian farmers, as innovation continues to grow in our fields. Their robot "spoon-feeds" nutrients to corn plants 24/7, delivering smaller, targeted applications that can reduce nitrogen use while improving yields and return on investment. It was great to hear more from Bender Brook Farms and Upside Robotics about the results they're seeing and the potential for this community's innovation as it grows and shapes Canadian agriculture.

It was great to visit True North Tropic Farms with Minister Rechie Valdez to learn more about their mission to bring fresh, flavourful food to our communities. Supporting small local farms means we are supporting our neighbours, our local economy and the future of agriculture. Thank you to the team at True North Tropic Farms for hosting us and everything you do to support and keep our community well fed.

Yesterday, I joined the TELUS team in a Kitchener neighbourhood to see firsthand how fibre-optic cable is being installed directly to local homes. This significant private-sector investment will expand access to fast, reliable Internet infrastructure, supporting residents, businesses and Kitchener's growing digital economy. Thank you to the crew for taking us behind the scenes and explaining the work happening beneath our feet.

Last night was the kick-off for the Kitchener Blues Fest! Festivals like this mean so much to me as an artist myself, knowing all of the hard work that goes into every aspect of these performances. What an awesome opportunity for these artists to step on stage and build a special connection with the audience that we will all remember. Don't worry if you missed last nights performances... there are more to come all weekend with over 35 amazing artists. Whether you're a first time listener, or a life-long fan, I hope you enjoy these performances and make lasting memories with friends and family.

The Ontario Summer Games may have come to an end, but Ewan's work has not. Meeting this inspirational young man has left me with a feeling of hope and empowerment. Seeing how far he has come at such a young age is truly incredible. We wish you luck on your journey Ewan, and I am honoured to have met such a young community champion.

As Parliamentary Secretary for Interprovincial Trade, I met with Wine Growers Canada and discussed priorities that will help the sector grow and compete.

We focused on addressing interprovincial barriers and making it easier for Canadians to access and enjoy great wines from across our country.

A key step is advancing harmonized direct-to-consumer shipping, so wineries can reach more Canadians and people can enjoy Canadian wines nationwide.

Starting April 20th, Canada’s new government will suspend the full amount of tax on gasoline and diesel. Cutting the tax will reduce fuel costs for Canadians and business, including food, agriculture, housing, and delivery sectors.
