In And Around Mississauga – January 7, 2022 Edition

Good day!

I want to wish you all a Happy New Year! I do hope that you had an opportunity to unwind, recharge, and spend quality time with family over the Holiday season.

With new COVID-19 related restrictions that have come into effect here in Ontario to combat the Omicron variant, it is a reminder that we are not out of the woods yet.

We all need to continue to do our part to stay safe and protect ourselves and our loved ones. It is never too late to get your vaccine or your booster shot. Information about how to book your appointment is shown below. Our federal government has support available for small businesses, workers, and other affected organizations. To learn more, you can visit this link.

After speaking to many of you, I know that this pandemic has been tough on all of us in various ways. As a result, I have decided to ring in the new year by starting a Women's Council called Good Vibes. If you would like to connect with others, get involved in the community (safely), have engaging conversations, learn new things, and feel empowered, you can join our Women’s Council for Mississauga—Streetsville. The first virtual meeting will take place on Monday, January 17 at 6PM. To join, you can send me your email and phone number, OR, join the event on my Facebook page.

As a reminder, our small businesses have been hit the hardest during the pandemic. Let’s continue to #SupportLocal by purchasing food, products, or services in advance through their various COVID-safe alternative options. As you’ve heard during my Local Spotlight episodes, small businesses are getting creative and pivoting their business to ensure they are able to stay open. Let’s support them together!

To follow my journey and to learn more about what the Government is working on, you can follow me through my social media platforms.

Feel free to forward this email to anyone who would benefit from this information. They can join our distribution list by following this link. Mail List

Thank you for your continued support.
