📣The Town of Whitby has officially discontinued the use of the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) due to growing concerns about the platform’s accountability, direction, and viability as a trusted space for public communication. X is increasingly being used to spread harmful misinformation and at times discriminatory beliefs. The nature of this content does not align with the Town’s core values of collaboration, accountability, respect, and engagement. Despite this change, the Town remains committed to keeping residents informed through clear, factual, and responsible communication. 📣 Learn more ➡️ https://lnkd.in/e2geiZpT

📣Read Mayor Elizabeth Roy's statement released today on the implementation of tariffs on Canadian goods.📣 "I am deeply concerned by President Donald Trump’s confirmation that, effective today, the United States will impose a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods. These tariffs pose a direct threat to our local economy, impacting key sectors such as manufacturing, automotive, and agriculture. The Town of Whitby is working closely with the Region of Durham, municipalities across the province, and industry leaders to assess the local impact of tariffs and advocate for our community."
