This comes as X is increasingly a space for spreading misinformation and hate that disproportionately targets queer people and other marginalized communities - all of which continues to go unchecked by those who moderate this platform.

Appreciate this opinion piece in today's @TheSpec. I mentioned James Street South and Bold Street at a recent town hall as I have a motion coming forward in the short term to address it. Always good to bring awareness. Pedestrian safety matters. #HamOnt thespec.com/opinion/contribu…

After a few technical hiccups kept the Gore Park Fountain from running, it’s back up to full strength after some needed repairs. On these warmer days it makes a huge difference. Hope you’re able to get out to enjoy the weather this weekend! #HamOnt

This week's heritage highlight focuses on the history of Shorty Green water fountains in Hamilton. Water fountains are more than just functional, they're part of Hamilton’s civic and cultural heritage. Let's dive into it. #HamOnt

But vandalism took its toll. Some fountains were stuffed with dirt or sand, while others were hacked apart with axes for their valuable metal. No one knows exactly when the last Shorty Green was removed, but the Spectator suggests it was around 2000.

This past weekend marked the official start of summer, bringing with it an intense heat wave. As Hamiltonians try to stay cool, it's important to know that the City has an interactive map of public drinking fountains to help people stay hydrated - spatialsolutions.maps.arcgis….

Yesterday was my first day back on the Hamilton Police Service Board after the Province’s 15 month investigation found I didn’t commit any misconduct. It was a packed six hour meeting. Here are some of the highlights. #HamOnt

In July, the third floor of the downtown YMCA location, which experienced fire damage last year, will reopen to residents. This was made possible by a motion during the budget process to commit $350,000 in Ward 2 reserve funding to dedicated wraparound support services. #HamOnt

These wraparound services are necessary in order to expand the services offered on the third floor. For those who have asked, folks who were housed on the third floor last year when it caught fire have been placed in permanent housing and things are going well for them.

I'm grateful to the work of the Shelter Health Network, especially Dr. Kerry Beal, @ymcahbb staff, and City staff. This has been a difficult journey, but a brighter future ahead for those who need to access these services in our community.
