SUMMARY:Yesterday Reframed - Artist Reception
DESCRIPTION:Discover this intimate exhibition of mixed-media drawings that investigates cultural identity\, memory and the reconstruction of inherited histories. Through delicate\, small and medium scale works\, artist JJ Lee explores how personal and collective narratives\, shaped by migration and colonization\, are mediated through drawing\, adding a fragile and ephemeral quality. Yesterday Reframed centers drawing as both a physical and conceptual practice; an act of tracing\, reconstructing and remembering. Through this exhibit\, Lee reflects on how histories are passed down\, lost and reassembled across generations\, using materiality and process to make visible what is often unseen. \nEvent occurs from January 6\, 2026 until January 28\, 2026 \n\nEvery Sunday at 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.\nEvery Monday at 9 a.m. – 8 p.m.\nEvery Tuesday at 9 a.m. – 8 p.m.\nEvery Wednesday at 9 a.m. – 8 p.m.\nEvery Thursday at 9 a.m. – 8 p.m.\nEvery Friday at 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.\nEvery Saturday at 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. \n\nJoin the artist at the reception on Sunday\, January 11\, from 1 to 3 p.m.

SUMMARY:Ward 25 By-Election Candidate Forums
DESCRIPTION:The City Councillor position for Ward 25 is currently vacant. A By-Election will be held on Monday\, September 29 to fill the vacancy. \nThe four Community Associations in the southern half of Ward 25 are hosting the following candidate forums for residents to meet candidates. \n\nSaturday\, September 13 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. – Port Union Community Centre\, 5450 Lawrence Avenue East\nTuesday\, September 16 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. – Royal Canadian Legion\, 305 Morrish Road\n\nAs there are 20 registered candidates\, rather than a debate\, the candidate forums will feature a “candidate marketplace” where residents can meet candidates in one place\, engage in conversations\, and receive campaign literature. Beginning at 7:00 p.m. each candidate will be provided with two and a half minutes to speak\, following which those in attendance will have the opportunity to connect directly with the candidates.  \nVoting Day for the By-Election is Monday\, September 29 from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Advance Voting takes place on Saturday\, September 20 and Sunday\, September 21 from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. \nAre you on the Voters’ List? Do you know where to vote? Check the City of Toronto’s MyVote website at myvote.toronto.ca. \nAll 20 registered candidates for the upcoming Ward 25 by-election were invited to submit a brief biography for this event and latest edition of The Villager: \nWalter Alvarez-Bardales — Born in war-torn Guatemala\, Walter Alvarez-Bardales survived civil conflict\, homelessness\, and learning disabilities to become a federal civil servant\, MBA salutatorian and doctoral candidate in social sciences. An Afro-Indigenous immigrant\, he champions equity through his Democracy Matters! YouTube channel (500K+ views) and a decade of healthcare-inclusion research. As Ward 25 councillor\, he will defend accessible transit\, expand mental health and community clinics\, protect affordable housing\, and ensure transparent and accountable governance that preserves hard-won gains while also advancing racial\, cultural\, and disability justice. \nAnita Anandarajan — My name is Anita Anandarajan\, and I have been living in this riding for 10 years. I hold a Bachelor of Science from the University of Ottawa and have completed post-graduate studies in Human Resources Management. I have worked in the community as a workforce developer and was the Ontario Liberal candidate in the 2022 and 2025 provincial elections.
