A promotional flyer titled “Fix the Bottleneck” features a photo of heavy traffic on a narrow road beneath a rail bridge. The flyer urges residents to help push for widening St. Clair at Old Weston Road. It explains that the current design doesn’t work for drivers, cyclists, or pedestrians. A boxed section lists two actions: attend the Metrolinx open house on December 8, 2025, from 5–7 p.m. at St. Clair/Silverthorn Library, and sign a petition at alejandbravo.ca/fix_the_bottleneck. At the bottom right is a photo of a woman smiling in a blazer, labeled as City Councillor Alejandra Bravo, Ward 9 – Davenport. The background uses teal and white design elements.

Join our call in asking the Province to fix the bottleneck at St. Clair and Old Weston Road!

Sign our petition shorturl.at/6MyiM and attend the Metrolinx open house from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. on December 8th.

I checked in with some neighbours who phoned my office because plows still haven’t come.

Even with a big storm, we should be able to count on snow getting cleared—instead, people are doing it themselves.

Warming centres are closed to new admissions but people are still getting support and transfers to shelters.

I understand there is currently space at the BLC, which is accessible by walk-in, at 129 Peter St, or by calling 1-877-338-3398.

We will continue to monitor.

But, I recognize concerns even with this update, especially on days with snowfall or cold rain.

I will be asking of a review of the warming centre policy in the new year, and for the additional opening hours to be accounted for in the 2025 Budget.

I appreciate the care and concern shown by so many Torontonians with requests to review the warming centre opening policy.

I advocated for change to this policy under the last administration, which now has centres opening at -5° instead of -15°.

Thank you to Chair Chris Moise and Deputy Mayor Amber Morley for their leadership.

Over the last year, we've added 200 new spaces in refugee houses and shelters.

With the new Refugee Claimant Shelter and Housing External Working Group, I look forward to continued collaboration with the refugee-serving sector.
