I'm excited to share that I have been selected as one of the Jewish volunteer leaders for the Vancouver '24 cohort of the Wexner Heritage Program, the Wexner Foundation’s learning and leadership development program for volunteer leaders in North America.

Thank you for meeting with our delegation.

The fact that antisemitism in Canada is high on the radar of the President of Israel should be a cause for concern for everyone in our country.

It was an honour to meet President יצחק הרצוג Isaac Herzog today in Jerusalem.

A little rain won’t keep me away from wishing my friends in Chinese Canadian community a very happy #LunarNewYear . Thank you Terry Yung for your leadership this morning as leaders from across #Vancouver & #BC gathered to mark the #YearOfTheDragon2024 . #bcpoli

I wrapped up Hanukkah at the Whistler Multicultural Community Kitchen where my friend Eliana led a latke making session for the community 👩🏻‍🍳 Special thanks to Whistler Councillor Cathy Jewett for joining us and share some great stories about Whistler's history.

A heartfelt thank you to all who joined us in Whistler Village to light the Hanukkah Candles on the 3rd Night 🕎 It means so much to be surrounded by family & friends from our community 🥰

Big thanks to Mark James and the BrewHouse for providing a space for our Menorah.

Lighting up the night in downtown #Vancouver with thousands of people!

It was so nice to visit my friend Lorraine Lowe today at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden in Vancouver (@vangarden) for the Chinatown Holiday Market. I’m thankful for the invitation to join in this celebration of community spirit!

It was a pleasure to catch up this morning Iddo Moed 🎗️. Thank you for visiting Vancouver and for the work you and Israel in Canada are doing.

This sounds amazing! Thanks Lorraine Lowe

Last night I met with Deborah Lyons (Deborah Lyons)

The Prime Minister recently appointed her as Canada’s new Special Envoy on Preserving Holocaust Remembrance and Combatting Antisemitism ✡️ She shared her priorities with me and a group of Vancouver Jewish Community Leaders.

To my friends & family in our Jewish Community:

I know the past month has been hard.

One of my mentors reminded me this morning that we should look toward the positive.

We are resilient. We are strong. We are the light.

Our community is stronger than ever.

Shabbat Shalom 💙

Vancouver 💙 So much love and support in our community as we call for the return of the 240+ hostages held by Hamas in Gaza.

#BringThemBackHomeNow

Standing with my people 🇮🇱

The 7th of November marks 30 days since the massacre, kidnapping and barbaric atrocities committed by Hamas on Israeli civilians. 🕯️

Thank you to everyone who joined the Jewish community in Vancouver tonight.

We see you. We feel your love 💙
