Councillor Matlow's City Hall and Community Update: Summer 2022

Dear Residents,

I hope this finds you healthy and well. As always, I hope that you find this e-newsletter helpful and informative.

Due to the upcoming municipal election on October 24th, integrity rules state that I am unable to send out community updates after August 1st. Therefore, you will receive my next update later in the fall if I continue to have the honour to serve you. Over the past four years, we have achieved so much together, in every one of our Toronto-St. Paul's neighbourhoods and the many important initiatives we have brought to City Hall to improve our city.

Happy Pride Month & Celebrating Launch of 2SLGBTQI+ Tool Kit for Seniors!

I was proud to join our city's 2SLGBTQI+ community to raise the Pride Flag at City Hall to mark the start of Pride Month. Together, we stand against homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, and all other forms of hatred, and celebrate love and acceptance.

Free Ukraine Square and Actions to Support Ukraine

Earlier this month, it was my honour to unveil "Free Ukraine Square" with the Ukrainian Canadian Congress, accompanied by Mayor John Tory and MP Carolyn Bennett in front of the Russian consulate at 60 St. Clair Ave E. Yesterday, City Council was honoured by the virtual presence of the Mayor of Kyiv, Vitali Klitschko. As the bloody and murderous Russian invasion of Ukraine continues, The City of Toronto will keep its website updated with services we can provide, working with the federal and provincial governments, including refugee support. Please click here for more information.

Councillor Matlow's City Hall and Community Update: Season's Greetings

Dear residents,

While we remain in uncertain times, I am very optimistic that if we face the challenges in front of us over the next few weeks, and follow public health guidance, we will be in a far better place in 2022. And as always, our community will support each other and we will never lose sight of our priorities.

Marking Remembrance Day and Indigenous Veterans Day

This month, we express our gratitude to the brave men and women of our armed forces, including up to 12,000 Indigenous veterans, who have served, sacrificed and fought for our peace and freedom. Lest we forget. In 2021, we also mark the 100th Anniversary of the poppy being used as a Canadian symbol of remembrance.

Vaccinating Homebound Seniors in Toronto-St.Paul's with Sinai Health:

We can't wait for seniors, particularly those in lower income buildings, homebound and with mobility challenges to get vaccinated. We need to go to where they are. That is why I partnered with Dr. Nathan Stall and his team from Sinai Health to deliver vaccines to seniors in neighborhoods throughout Toronto-St.Paul's. In our west end, thank you to the Executive Director- Lisa Tobio from the York-Fairbank Centre for Seniors and her team for providing outreach to our community's seniors. Stay tuned for news on how I'm working with local organizations and health partners to get Toronto-St. Paul's residents vaccinated.

COVID-19 Vaccine Information & How to Stay Informed:

One of the most important things you can do to help end this pandemic is to be vaccinated. This will not only keep you safe, but your family, friends and neighbours, too. Vaccination is underway for Phase 1 and Phase 2 in the Province’s vaccination program. Details about Phase 3  timing, who is eligible and the status of completed vaccinations  for Ontario is on the Province’s website. I’ve heard from many of you that the Province’s vaccine roll-out has been confusing and it’s been hard to understand exactly when one is eligible. This is why I’ve decided to create a “one-stop shop” for our Toronto-St.Paul’s community to provide you with all relevant information available to us. Please visit my website here to learn more.
