of Arts.” Fast-forward 25 years, and the love of live theatre and performing
arts still holds strong throughout the city.

Don’t let the Grinch or a fire get in the way of carving your prime rib or
glazed ham! To help you have a safe and happy holiday, Vaughan Fire and Rescue
Service (VFRS) is reminding residents of some important holiday fire-safety
tips.
When cooking your holiday meal, follow these tips to ensure it goes off without a hitch:
Do you represent an organization that is advancing a
cause that requires greater public awareness? Or does your association have a
special event taking place in 2022 that celebrates the diversity, heritage and
culture of the community? Submit a request to have an observance commemorated with
a flag-raising, illumination or proclamation from the City of Vaughan.
The halls are decked and presents are wrapped, but the fight against COVID-19
is not over. With the holidays in full swing, the City of Vaughan is encouraging
everyone to do their part in reducing the spread of the virus. Being safe is
the best holiday gift this year.
