Still reeling from the launch of our children’s book, HELLO CHAPATI, at @torontoWOTS yesterday. A joy to write with my sis @salimah and be so warmly welcomed into @amandaminuky’s “Hello Food” series to honour one of our favourite foods. #howdoyoulikeyourchapati #chapatitime

We have a big opportunity this year: for the first time in over a decade, the Mayor has opened up the budget process to provide more opportunity for input from you before it’s drafted! Tell the City what you want funded (or not funded) in the budget: https://t.co/YNsncpyOWh

My thanks to all the industry experts and leaders who joined us to imagine the road to change that our country so desperately needs at the municipal level. I’m left feeling optimistic a solution for a new Municipal Growth Framework is within reach. More: https://t.co/jOSrgkCYbe

Super proud to be supporting @oliviachow’s candidacy for Mayor of Toronto. We are long overdue for people-powered, collective, creative change at city hall, and having a leader who so deeply cares about community voice.
I’m proud to have the support of @zahraeb, co-founder of Monumental and urbanist-in-residence at UofT’s School of Cities. As a change-maker and city builder, Zahra knows that when people work together, we can win a city for everyone.
