It’s Winter Carnival season in Winnipeg South Centre! Great time this afternoon with constituents at the Whyte Ridge Community Centre. It was a great turnout and showcased the diversity and spirit of our riding beautifully. #WinterCarnival

Thank you to all of those from various faith groups who attended as well, and the ongoing leadership of community members committed to peace and inclusivity.

It was nice to spend time with congregants at Shaarey Zedek this morning for celebration, reflection, and common purpose.

It has been a difficult week for them and the broader community following several antisemitic attacks.

The pain of the tragedy will never go away. I am very proud that the only permanent memorial to the victims of Flight PS752 in the world is located in my riding of Winnipeg South Centre. The site offers a place for reflection, remembrance, and resistance.

Today is the 6th anniversary of the downing of Flight PS752, a tragedy that claimed 176 lives, including 8 members from Winnipeg’s Iranian community. My thoughts today are with the victims’ families and loved ones, who continue to bear the weight of this loss.

My statement on recent targeted hate events in Winnipeg.

… and in particular, from those outside of the Jewish community. It needs allies and the time for that is now.

Large swastikas plastered on the doors of my childhood synagogue, located in my riding, serve as yet another reminder of our need to fight antisemitism through education, judicial reform, & a collective attitude that not only recognizes the depths of the issue but rejects it loudly and with purpose…

Yet again, antisemitic graffiti in an act of hate targeted directly at Winnipeg’s Jewish community occurred this weekend.

As Scott said, what better Christmas present than for loved ones to return home to their families happy and healthy. Merry Christmas and congrats to all at Bruce Oake.

Last night, I was really grateful to join Scott, staff, and the most recent graduates of the recovery program who showed great courage and wisdom as they begin an important new chapter of their lives and sobriety.

I always value time spent with Scott Oake. His vision, compassion, and tenacity save lives everyday at the Bruce Oake Recovery Centre.

It is always a pleasure to spend time with members of Winnipeg’s Iranian community. Last night was a gathering to celebrate Yalda - which marks the winter solstice.

Wishing everyone in the community a Happy Yalda and New Year ahead.

Congratulations to the Winnipeg Section of the National Council of Jewish Women of Canada on their 100th anniversary! Since 1925, the council has embodied the Jewish principle of tikkun olam, or repairing the world, through education, service and social action.
