Beware if you’re driving in the Kingston Rd and Meadowvale area of Scarborough. Almost had my car rammed by this driver. She aggressively overtook my car in a parking lot as we were going over a speed bump! Crazy!! @TorontoPolice @TrafficServices @TPSdiv43

At a time when talking about it was far more difficult, my mother Margaret was fearless in discussing her mental health struggles. Her strength has been an inspiration. RT this to help others find their voices or get support. #BellLetsTalk
