One in four households struggle with food insecurity, and the YMCA has recognised this and taken action. Their program has helped 50,000 students in Peel so far. As a community, it is our responsibility to keep our kids healthy, strong, and ready to learn.

YMCA Student Nutrition Program | Councillor Joe Horneck The YMCAโ€™s Student Nutrition Program provides healthy meals to over 50,000 students. Let's help them serve even more local kids.

Nine schools in Ward 6 have kids who haven't always gotten nutritious meals. The YMCA Student Nutrition Program helps, but they need help with 5 of the schools. For as little as $500, we can ensure a nearby school has no child go hungry.

On Nov. 10, 1979, a 106-car freight train carrying hazardous chemicals derailed and caught fire in Mississauga.
The incident led to the largest evacuation in North American history to that point.
Not a single life was lost.
This is the story of the Mississauga Miracle.

As a Mississauga councillor the city sent letters supporting ASE to the Province and were active in AMOs united efforts to oppose their removal. I personally spoke in favour of them multiple times, encouraged police to do so & texted the Premier's phone.
They are being removed to follow the law

Some politicans. With few exception municipal leaders were pretty unanimous that there were community safety devices. Cities collectively said they would be fine to tighten rules such as 10km minimum or school zone only or time of day dependent but there was willingness to make changes.

I don't know Hillcrest specifically but our standard has been to look at redesign when roads are due for resurfacing work. It's more cost effective. One example of redesign Creditwoodlands recently done. Coming 2026-27 Central, Creditview (n of Britannia) & Bristol (Ceremonial to Creditview)

Just because there are no speed cameras, doesnโ€™t mean there are no speed limits Following the Government of Ontarioโ€™s motion to ban speed cameras throughout the province as part of Bill 56, the City of Mississauga is ending its speed camera program as of the end of the day on Thu...

Mississauga. On Thurs, November 13, we will be ending our speed camera program in response to the Gov of Ontario's Bill 56.
๐Ÿ“… Speed camera tickets will still be issued until Nov13.

What's next for road safety? bit.ly/4ot4RbY

It was a good compromise. I seconded the motion. We did as the article says reduce the hours to a bit earlier and are going to work with the industry to limit sales of the loudest ones. The 40-50 residents present in the council chamber did applaud the vote.

Mississauga has approved a range of garden suites including providing free pre-approved designs. We have four plexus approved.
We cut DCs 50% or by 100% for family units (3-bedrooms) in purpose built rental apartments.
We defer and collect City residential DCs at occupancy not during construction.
