In his first months he’ll press to accelerate the Port Union Road widening\, advance the Morningside Avenue extension to Steeles\, fully fund practical Vision Zero upgrades\, speed snow clearing\, improve waste service\, and streamline small-business permits.

The featured portraits unveils the layered complexity of refugee experiences\, where the anguish of displacement coexists with unwavering spiritual faith\, aspiration for reinvention\, and the hope of preserving ties to community. Curated by Thy Phu and Saaz Taher\, the exhibition is presented by the Doris McCarthy Gallery in partnership with Agir Montreal\, Midaynta Community Services\, and University of Montreal. Generously supported by the Toronto Arts Council\, Canada Council for the Arts\, and Social Sciencies and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). \nThreads of Refuge is one of the outcomes of Refugee States\, a SSHRC-funded research-creation project that preserves oral histories and creates digital stories. By centering the voices and perspectives of refugees and migrants\, the project challenges dominant narratives about forced migration in antiracist and queer- and trans-affirming ways. Since 2022\, in collaboration with peer researchers\, community partners\, and artists across Toronto and Montreal\, the project has supported the creation of a living archive of oral histories\, digital stories\, and creative interventions by and for refugee communities. Refugee States is co-directed by Edward Ou Jin Lee (Canada Research Chair and Associate Professor in the School of Social Work at Universite de Montreal) and Thy Phu (Distinguished Professor of Race\, Diaspora\, and Visual Justice at the University of Toronto Scarborough).
