This was the light I think we all needed right now, and the Toronto I’m most proud of. First responders salute our frontline healthcare heroes, who sacrifice so much for so many. Overwhelming, emotional, and raw. Thank you ALL for what you do 🙏🏻 #COVID19 #COVID19ON #covidtoronto

We tend to have tunnel vision. We tend to focus on issues through our own lens - but remember, you never know what others are going through. Listen. Learn. Allow yourself to be open enough to change your lens every once in awhile. Above all else, be kind. #BellLetsTalk
