Remember, when you buy a handmade gift, there are two recipients: the person you’re buying it for & the person you bought it from. Let’s shop local!

There are so many intersections between equitable cities and healthy winter cities. Some great reading here!

Interested in how to make cities more equitable and inclusive for women, girls, and gender-diverse people? ✨🌆

Every person killed in war was loved by someone. When we see death tolls, we must never forget that those who died were individuals, each with hopes for the future.

We’re taking time to reflect on the human cost of war, and the magnitude of lives lost and forever changed.

Holiday shopping begins now! Let’s support our small businesses!

Shopping local is a great way to keep our #WinterCity vibrant and strong. Support Christmas market vendors, or pick up gifts from a small business in your neighbourhood. Build relationships and keep money in our local economy!

Snow sparkling under the midday sun. Soft flakes falling from an inky night sky. Winter’s quiet beauty is a sight to behold, and we’re excited to see what this year brings!
