Have Your Say! Expanding Housing Options Consultation
Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods is a City of Toronto initiative to facilitate more low-rise housing in residential neighbourhoods to meet the needs of our growing city. The City is working to expand opportunities for “missing middle” housing forms in Toronto, ranging from duplexes to low-rise walk-up apartments. All of these housing types can be found in many parts of Toronto today, but they are also limited in where they can be newly built. Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods is one solution among a range of City initiatives to increase housing choice and access and create a more equitable, sustainable city. Please feel welcome to have your say at one of the consultation events which can be found here.
Supports Available for Small Businesses in Toronto
The City of Toronto and its partners offer many supports to help small business owners and operators. These include grants, incentives, training, advisory services and a new small business property tax sub-class. Small businesses, including restaurants, are encouraged to take advantage of these resources. More information is available at www.toronto.ca/BusinessSupport

The Stop’s Farmer’s Market at Artscape Wychwood Barns
I recently had a wonderful time while at The Stop's Market meeting with the thoughtful community members to discuss local priorities and important issues facing our country.
Come visit and shop with our amazing indoor and outdoor vendors at the beloved Wychwood Barns Farmers’ Market (located at 601 Christie Street). You can find them every Saturday from 8:00am to 12:30pm, year round, to appreciate all their local products—they need our support!
