Chi trova un amico trova un tesoro!

Danny you truly are a treasure, and we are all so lucky to have found you. Thank you for your generosity, your mentorship, and above all your unconditional friendship.

Lido Construction is a reflection of your and Madeleine’s passion and sacrifice. You have built something beautiful. Yesterday is a testament of that.

Auguri! Wishing you continuous success. A presto!!

An amazing team supporting our dear friend Donato (Danny) Montesano’s 50th anniversary of Lido Construction.

Donato your generosity, integrity and friendship are a blessing. You have remained true to your and Madeleine’s humble roots and the values you demonstrate of compassion, kindness, and treating all with respect are unwavering - something welcomed in today’s world.

Great things are happening at the Italian Chamber of Commerce of Ontario (ICCO Canada).

Thank you to Executive Director Marco Zambon and the entire team at @italchambers for their ongoing work to strengthen the ever stronger trade and investment ties between 🇨🇦🇮🇹.

Italy is Canada’s 7th largest trading partner with two-way trade at over $1 billion dollars for the month of March 2025. The future is bright for our two countries and Marco & the ICCO team will play a pivotal role in many future successes. 🇮🇹🤝🇨🇦

Auguri, Natalia on receiving your sacrament of confirmation. God bless.

A special afternoon with family and friends.

We are experiencing a marked decline ⬇️ in crime across York Region including the City of Vaughan. However, more needs to be done and Prime Minister @markjcarney has the plan to ensure everyone feels safe in their community.

Carney: “We will toughen the criminal code and bail laws for those threatening the safety of Canadians, including making bail harder to get for those charged with stealing cars, home invasion, human trafficking, & smuggling.”

#canadastrong

Check all crime statistics at the York Region Crime Dashboard.

Today’s press conference clearly demonstrates that PM @markjcarney has a plan to move Canada forward by:

✅ Meeting President Trump next Tuesday May 6th.
✅ Appointing a new Cabinet the week of May 12th.
✅ Recalling Parliament with a Speech from the Throne by King Charles III on May 27th.
✅ Enacting a middle class tax cut by Canada 🇨🇦 Day to save middle class families $825, ($4 billion in year one in tax savings for Canadians) and,
✅ Eliminating all Federal Barriers to inter-provincial trade by Canada Day. 👏👏

From north to south Etobicoke is in great hands with MPs-elect @james.maloney & @johnzerucelli - missing @yvan_baker !

Great to catch up and discuss how we keep building Canada strong!.🇨🇦

Applications for the Canadian Dental 🦷 Care Plan (CDCP) are now open for eligible Canadians aged 55-64. Learn more about eligibility criteria at Canada.ca/dental.

Yes, the CDCP is a policy the Liberals and NDP worked together and will benefit over 9 million eligible Canadians. Conservatives voted against the CDCP and did not support the expansion.

Tens of thousands of Vaughan residents will now become eligible for the Canadian Dental Care Plan 👏👏👏.

Already helping nearly 30,000 Vaughan residents aged 65+ and those with a valid disability certificate the CDCP is a game changer in 🇨🇦’s health care system and for millions of Canadians.

Information in the CDCP at:

https://www.canada.ca/en/services/benefits/dental/dental-care-plan.html

An exciting year ahead for 🇨🇦- 🇮🇹 relations with Canada hosting the G-7.

Grazie Consul General of Italy 🇮🇹 Luca Zeliol for the conversation on a number of initiatives in our community. A pleasure to work together and a great year ahead in front us. Forza!!

Could not be prouder of this group of individuals. This team was awesome. I will cherish all the time we spent together - much gratitude. 🙏

Heartbroken by horrific events that took place at the Lapu Lapu festival in Vancouver. My deepest sympathies to the families and friends of those killed and injured. Vaughan-Woodbridge residents join the entire Filipino community across Canada during this incredibly difficult time.

“A la Vittoria” 🇨🇦

An honour to welcome former PM Chrétien to the City of Vaughan with @hon.judysgro and our Liberal team. His love for country is unmatched. At this time of crisis, we need a leader like him that has the experience to move Canada forward and that will unite all Canadians.

A pleasure to welcome @markjcarney to Seneca’s King-City campus and introduce la familgia.

Let’s do this. #canadastrong 🇨🇦🇨🇦

“In this way, Carney evokes successful Liberal governments of the past. He has often cited the Chrétien-Martin years as a model. More of that would be most welcome.“

Shouldn’t the person representing your community actually be part of it?

Your MP’s vote makes the difference to get access to dental care, affordable child care, improved infrastructure, create jobs, renewed transit, cut taxes and much more!

📍 Vote for someone who actually lives here—and lives with those decisions.

🗳️VoteSorbara.ca

Then vs now.

Time may pass, but our Canadian values remain strong.

Once a Chrétien Liberal, always a Chrétien Liberal.

Congratulations on your confirmation, Natalia! May god bless you today and always!!

I’m proud to represent the most generous and entrepreneurial community in Canada. That’s home. That’s Vaughan-Woodbridge.

This election, the choice is clear: let’s continue to build Canada. The best country in the world.🇨🇦

A Mark Carney government will build Canada up, and make #CanadaStrong .

On April 28th, cast your vote for Mark Carney and Francesco Sorbara, and let’s keep building!🇨🇦

Proud to be, and will always remain, a Chrétien Liberal.

Welcome Prime Minister Jean Chrétien to the City of Vaughan.

Now, let’s paint all of Vaughan RED!!

#kingvaughan #thornhill #canadastrong

A Mark Carney Liberal government will protect and expand Canada’s dental care plan to additional 4.5 million Canadians aged 18 to 65.

Over 30,000 Vaughan residents are already benefiting and tens of thousands more will have access to dental care this year!

Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives voted against it, questioning its necessity. Dental care is health care.

Looking forward to welcoming a dear friend, the Rt. Hon. Jean Chrétien, former Prime Minister of Canada to the City of Vaughan alongside our energized Liberal team! 🇨🇦

#CanadaStrong #Vaughan #Woodbridge

“I met a teacher in Georgetown, Ontario, who asked her students to describe their dreams for Canada. This is what they wrote:“ Mark Carney.

#canadastrong🇨🇦

On the solemn occasion of Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day), I join Canada’s Jewish community in honouring the memory of the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust between 1933 and 1945 and pays tribute to the courage of the survivors and liberators.

This year, Yom HaShoah – and its message – comes as communities are still reeling from the events of October 7. Hamas’ brutal terrorist attacks against Israel were the deadliest attacks on the Jewish people since the Holocaust.

In Vaughan-Woodbridge and across Canada, we stand united in our fight against antisemitism and discrimination in all its forms.

A special recognition by the @vaughanchamber for a special individual in our community.

Elvira you are a community leader and activist, a friend too many, and someone with a special soul. A well deserved recognition in receiving the Vaughan Chamber’s Women of Excellence Award.

Your long time friendship is a blessing.

5 days left to Election Day and #TeamSorbara is making every second count! 🙌🇨🇦

We need your help, we need ALL HANDS ON DECK!

Join us, and let’s stand up for Canada and keep building Vaughan-Woodbridge and Canada Strong!🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

A tale of two tax cuts.

Pierre abandoned his own promise, delivering less for Canadians for the next two years as we are dealing with an economic crisis brought on by President Trump.

The Conservative platform is like a spaghetti strainer , full of holes - big ones.

The Conservative platform is built on numbers that don’t add up. It is a document not worth the paper it is written on. Full stop.

Saving families in Vaughan-Woodbridge up to $15,000 per year our government’s National $10-a-daycare strategy is making a real difference for hardworking families.

Pierre and all Conservative MPs voted against $10-a-day care for families. No surprise there.

#daycare #childcare #family #affordable

Mark Carney is ready to led 🇨🇦 forward on day one!! This is the most consequential election in generations.

“Carney navigated crises when he ran Canada’s central bank and when he later became the first non-U.K. citizen to run the Bank of England since its founding in 1694.

His Bank of England appointment won bipartisan praise in Britain after Canada recovered from the 2008 financial crisis faster than many other countries.

Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson called it “extraordinary” that a country would choose a foreigner to head its central bank, and that it’s a mark of how admired Carney is.”

Mark Carney is ready to meet this moment and build #canadastrong.

This is the most consequential election 🗳️ in our lifetime. Mark Carney is the leader whose experience, competence and understanding of the world is needed to stand up to President Trump and move Canada 🇨🇦 forward.

Advance voting is available today until 9PM. Voting is quick, easy, and convenient.

A Mark Carney-led government will stand strong against President Trump’s tariffs, create jobs, cut taxes for the middle class, and build the fastest growing economy in the G7. Vote for myself and Mark Carney to keep Canada Strong!🇨🇦

“At the Vatican meeting in 2014, “The Global Common Good: Towards a More Inclusive Economy,” Pope Francis issued a challenge that has guided me ever since. He likened humanity to wine - rich, diverse, full of spirit - and the market to grappa - distilled, intense, and at times disconnected. He called on us to “turn grappa back into wine,” to reintegrate human values into our economic lives.

His Holiness understood, and taught, that value in the market must never eclipse values in society. He showed us that we must not only measure what we value, but also value what truly matters.”

My family and I join in mourning the passing of Pope Francis, a loss that deeply saddens our Catholic community here in Vaughan-Woodbridge and around the world.

His faith, humility, and courage touched the hearts of millions, making him a moral compass of our time and beyond. His legacy of peace and solidarity will remain an enduring example. Pope Francis will live in our hearts forever.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.

Hope everyone celebrating Easter in Vaughan-Woodbridge had a wonderful time with family and loved ones.

For Christians in our community, Easter is a celebration of hope, renewal, and the promise of new life. May its message of love, faith, and resurrection continue to inspire us all. ✝️💐

Happy Easter to all Christians. May the message of renewal, hope, and faith be with us throughout the year.

Always special to celebrate mass at the Good Shepherd Cathedral. Thank you Bishop Jarjis for your friendship. A blessing.

Our plan. Our plan to unite, to secure, to protect and build Canada. 🇨🇦
