Dear Residents,
 
I am extremely concerned about the recent acts of violence and safety concerns in our community. It is very upsetting. In response, our office has been in touch with Toronto Police Service, the City of Toronto Community Crisis Response Program and relevant stakeholders to assess the situation, respond and mobilize supports to those in need. The safety and well-being of residents is my paramount concern.
