Dear Community,
Yesterday I had a blast at the Toronto Fringe Theatre festival. “The Sorauren Book Club” put on by Lisa Randall, Christina Collins, our very own Maria Syrgiannis, and many more fabulous cast and crew, is a fun watch. You can catch this show again at the Al Green Theatre at 750 Spadina Ave. on July 13, 14, or 16. See a full list of showtimes for this and other shows and buy tickets here: https://fringetoronto.com/fringe/plan-your-festival/box-office.

Dear Community,
Ontario's chief medical officer has confirmed that we are now in a 7th-wave of COVID. This is unsurprising to many of us, and frightening for everyone. We have seen these waves become less deadly, particularly to vaccinated people, but there is no guarantee that this will continue, and I urge everyone to continue precautions like masking indoors and social distancing.

The city of Toronto is currently planning a Cultural Districts Program to help communities thrive and be of benefit to maintaining the historic character of neighbourhoods such as Little Jamaica.
There are a lot of questions about these policies. To address this Bryan Keshen, CEO of Reena, will moderate a discussion on April 28th from 7:30-8:30 pm to bring awareness to the needs of individuals with disabilities and how they can enhance their own inclusion within the Toronto Cultural Districts Program.

Dear Community,
We now have 1,332 people hospitalized with Covid, while ICU numbers remain steady at 150. Yet another reminder that this pandemic is far from over. We need to continue to demand real action from the government, and remember how earlier pandemic responses let down the most vulnerable.
Community News Update - April 11, 2022
With Covid infections estimated at over 100,000 per day, we badly need expanded PCR testing and an acknowledgement that the lifting of mask mandates were premature. While the government announced that they are expanding availability of PCR tests today, their actions continue to be too-little, too-late.
