Gratitude to everyone who made the election of great candidates possible in our downtown communities, even in the face of unprecedented, and unjust, circumstances. Proud last night to introduce -- for the first time!! -- Toronto District School Board (TDSB) trustee Stephanie Donaldson, TCDSB trustee Norm Di Pasquale for Ward 9 TCDSB Trustee. And re-elected to the TDSB, Chris Moise, and in new city wards, Joe Cressy and Mike Layton, who will be serving alongside inimitable Kri...styn Wong-Tam. There's much work ahead, and we're in this together for the city, and people in it, we love. : Olivia Chow

It's the last weekend before election day in Toronto. How are you supporting candidates you believe in? I'm proud to be coming together with Marit Stiles to support our phenomenal friend Jennifer Story's re-election as #TDSB trustee. Jen is a strong, passionate, thoughtful and effective leader we need. Join us this morning to canvass with #TeamStory and #TeamFletcher, Paula Fletcher for City Council, in #TorontoDanforth: 11am at 129 Danforth Ave. All welcome!

Grateful for Women Win Toronto's Hema Vyas who uplifts progressive women's leadership in politics. Read our exchange in her latest torontodotcom column. To the super women running in this municipal election: there's a whole community of us here in Toronto who are with you. This Monday October 22, let's get you elected!

Girls are amazing. Creative, courageous, curious, brilliant, hilarious, woke as ever. Leaders in so many ways -- in our communities, and our lives. Girls are challenging the way things are done and creating change for the better. I'm with them. On #InternationalDayOfTheGirl, building a truly just, equal and equitable world, where every opportunity is possible for girls to be the artists, architects and champions of making their dreams a reality is more urgent than ever. The only option really is being alongside them, kicking down barriers, and paving the path clearer to make it possible. #girlsrock #dayofthegirl #genderequity #genderequality
