This guy is salt of the earth. Humble, gentle giant., and now as an example of what you can do. @akheemdadream
@chargers @nfl @nflcanada
@gridironacademy
I`m not crying. You`re crying. Congratulations @akheemdadream , you proved it, man. Hard work pays off.
Ottawa, Canada, and most important person, your mother as well as your @nggiants love you. 🏈✌️
@nflcanada #Ottawa #nfl
Anyone who thinks they can’t make it… this is your proof.
From youth football to the @gridironacademy , this is what happens when opportunity meets hard work.
Proud to have always supported our Giants and the impact they’re making right here in our community.
Big moments like this don’t just happen… they’re built.
And proving we are a football town?
I’d say @cflredblacks at @tdplace, alongside the @nggiants … and Ottawa’s own @akheemdadream stepping into that next level makes that pretty clear.
This is a big deal for Ottawa. A big deal for football. 🏈
News out of this morning’s Mayor’s Breakfast 👀- Ontario’s Transportation Minister @prabsarkaria confirmed that work is underway on a ring road. It’s a major step forward for how people and goods move across our city.
And no… before anyone asks, we’re not throwing up any Illuminati symbols here 😅 just the best “ring” we could manage.
Jokes aside, this is the kind of infrastructure our growing city needs. Long term thinking, real movement on congestion, and a plan that actually connects.
Thanks to @prabsarkaria for the update this morning. Looking forward to seeing this take shape.
While we were a bit nervous heading into our first-ever Trivia Night, held in partnership with Dominion City Brewing Company and the Eastern Ottawa Resource Centre, the evening was all in support of EORC’s Gender-Based Violence team, and it turned into an incredible success.
A tip of the hat to Andrea, Julie, Dani, and Brook-Lynn for all their work behind the scenes. It was great to have you all there.
From the community leaders doing important work, to local business owners and residents who came out to take part, it was a night filled with fun, connection, and plenty of laughs.
We had originally planned for this to be an annual event, but the energy in the room had us adding a fourth round on the spot. The feedback has been fantastic, and we are already looking ahead to the next one this fall. We are planning to build on it even more, including a music component and some movie clips.
And now we all understand why former Jeopardy contestants are so good. Thanks for being great sports and for earning your prizes, even if you kept coming in first.
There are many community leaders to thank, and I will be highlighting them individually over the coming days so they receive the recognition they deserve.
Once again, thank you to our community. It is truly an honour to represent you and to work alongside you.
Please enjoy your weekend!
Go @senators Go! It was a pleasure raising the flag at City Hall today and putting up the sign on the Sens Mile.
That @spartacat is a crazy cat… and Neiler is awesome
A big thank you to the Public Works department. Their signs truly bring the street to life!
Allez les Sens, allez ! Ce fut un plaisir de hisser le drapeau à l`hôtel de ville aujourd`hui et d`installer le panneau sur le « Sens Mile ».
Ce Spartacat est un chat complètement fou… et Neiler est génial. Un grand merci au service des travaux publics. Leurs panneaux donnent vraiment vie à la rue!

1 metre can be the difference between a ride and a rescue – it doesn’t only help keep
them safe, but keeping a 1-metre distance from cyclists is also the law.

Un mètre peut faire la différence entre une balade et un sauvetage. Cette distance
favorise non seulement la sécurité des cyclistes, mais constitue aussi une obligation
légale.

It’s a real pleasure to be back in Saskatchewan with municipal colleagues at #SUMA2026.
At a time when communities here and across the country continue to navigate an intense period of change and uncertainty, local governments are meeting the moment, together. @fcmgram is focused on renewing municipal infrastructure, strengthening economic resilience, and ensuring public safety.
Great to hear about governments working together, along with a federal announcement by MP @buckleybelangerdmcr supporting projects in Saskatoon, Regina and Moose Jaw focused on waste, infrastructure and water.
Thanks for having me, SUMA and @randygoulden!

C’est un réel plaisir d’être de retour en Saskatchewan avec des collègues municipaux à #SUMA2026.
Alors que les communautés ici et partout au pays traversent une période de grands changements et d’incertitude, les gouvernements municipaux répondent présents, ensemble. @fcmgram met l’accent sur le renouvellement des infrastructures municipales, la résilience économique et la sécurité publique.
Intéressant d’entendre parler de la collaboration entre gouvernements, ainsi que de l’annonce fédérale du député @buckleybelangerdmcr appuyant des projets à Saskatoon, Regina et Moose Jaw en matière de gestion des déchets, d’infrastructures et d’eau.
Merci de l’invitation, @suma.connect SUMA et @randygoulden
