3 years ago today I was on the OR table at the General for six hours having emergency bypass surgery. Dr. Vic Chu & cardiac team saved my life. Today I feel great & have a clean bill of health from my cardiologist. If you have cardiac symptoms please get checked. @HamHealthSci

Thank you Mayor Horwath for your stance against hate and commitment to inclusivity in #HamOnt

Hizb ut Tahrir Canada is the Canadian branch of Hizb ut-Tahrir, an international Islamic revolutionary organization.

If social media posts are correct and their Khilafah Conference 2025 is coming to Hamilton, we must unite and unequivocally tell them to get out and get lost. Let no door be open to them.

We can never, ever normalize an agenda of Islamic militant jihadi action.

Like the steel that helped build Canada, Hamiltonians are strong and resilient. We know that strength comes from unity and that hate and the incitement of violence and chaos seek to weaken community.

Reject hate. Reject and denounce antisemitism. Reject extremism. Stand up for Canada and all the glorious, diverse and wonderful parts that make us whole and the envy of the world.

We are stronger together.

#HamOnt STATEMENT FROM MAYOR HORWATH - January 6, 2025

It has come to my attention that there is a planned event in Hamilton, which has raised significant concerns for me and our community.

Since learning of this event, I have been in direct communication with Hamilton Police Service, who are closely monitoring the situation to ensure public safety.

The City of Hamilton enforces strict conditions for all groups or organizations seeking to rent City facilities. We unequivocally refuse access to any group that engages in or promotes hatred or any form of divisive behavior. As clearly outlined in the City of Hamilton’s RZone policy, if such actions are reported or reasonably suspected, permits will be denied or immediately revoked, and appropriate measures will be taken to address the situation.

Hamilton is a city that stands firmly against intolerance. We are committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for all.

As Mayor, I have consistently spoken out against hate in all its forms and will continue to do so unequivocally. There is absolutely no place in our city for individuals or groups spreading messages of division or intolerance.

Hamilton will always stand united against hate and for the values that bring us together.

@TerryJCooke @canadianstage “Rubinek lashes out at mediatized phrases like “rising antisemitism” — when was antisemitism not rising in Canada? He recalls his father suggesting he pursue a name change and a nose job…”

ProPublica's @eisingerj to his staff: "We face the biggest test of our professional lives. Now we get to see if we really meant it when we said we will hold power to account. Will we do so when our subjects have true power on their side and a willingness to use it? We may be harassed. We may be sued. We may be threatened with violence. We may be ignored. Are we just sunshine journalists or are we ready?" https://t.co/1ZKacavcNK

A vaccine ban would kill and disable millions of Americans and collapse the economy. It is stunning that actual Americans on the edge of power would consider this idea, let alone advocate it.

A monumental unforced error by 12 Ontario Big City Mayors. The Premier has successfully divided your 29 Mayor coalition and taken the focus off the only solution to the crisis: more funding for supportive housing & treatment. They have handed him a political win and got zip in return. Nice work.

HAMILTON DAY!

Ward 1 is fortunate to be the home of many independent businesses. From the Shoppes of Locke and Westdale Village to York Boulevard and Main Street West. There are unique shops, restaurants and services on every block.
