Happy Heritage Thursday #HamOnt. This week we're shining a light on the Stewart Memorial Church in the Beasley neighbourhood, Hamilton’s oldest surviving Black congregation dating back to the 1830s. Let's dig into the history.

Over the course of 2025, the Hamilton Waterfront Trust will dissolve and enter into a transfer agreement to turn its assets and programming over to the City of Hamilton. #HamOnt

In light of comments made by police to CHCH, it's important to clarify that I offered, at the meeting on Monday, to facilitate a discussion with the Chief of Police if business owners wanted me to. I attended a similar discussion with downtown BIAs. Happy to do so here. #HamOnt

As part of ongoing engagement with businesses on James Street North, I held a meeting last night to discuss concerns raised around the Cathedral Café, crime and public safety, and how a BIA might help businesses with advocacy efforts. #HamOnt

Thanks to the Somali Community in Hamilton for a wonderful Iftar last night. Ramadan Mubarak and Ramadan Kareem to everyone during these final days of reflection and devotion. #HamOnt

Great to join HARRC for some deep learning today on the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination in Ward 2 with my good friend Dr. Anjali Menezes. Really appreciated the talk from Dr. Barbara Perry from the Centre on Hate, Bias and Extremism. #HamOnt

Yesterday was a 2 town hall kind of day. Thanks to the Durand NA for inviting me out to talk to their members and to Justin Lewis from the City, Edith Wilson from the Hamilton Community Land Trust, and Emily Power from the Caroline Co-op to join me to talk affordable housing. #HamOnt

This Heritage Thursday we're looking at the ongoing history of the beloved trees that have been part of Gore Park since its founding. This mini forest has had some real ups and downs over its 200 year history, including a real fiasco in the 1980s. Let's get into it! #HamOnt
