詹嘉禮市議員 - 感謝我們的英雄 四月七日更新
我們借此機會感謝數以千計的超市工作人員、護士、醫生、醫護人員、藥劑師、長者護理員、農業工人、卡車司機，倉庫工人和食品加工工人等等的前線工作人員。你們每天的工作確保我們的社區的食物、物資和醫療服務的提供得以維持，並協助我們應付COVID-19疫情。
我們勇敢的醫護人員目前正在與COVID-19搏鬥的最前線。他們並無法和家人一起居家隔離，亦無法和患者保持6英尺的距離。醫護人員在這場危機中為本市以致全世界作出許多無私的奉獻。
我們感謝您們在這場疫症中每天所作出的犧牲。您們的奉獻，承諾和勇氣值得我們最深切的感謝和欽佩。 您們為患者提供的服務輓救了無數生命。
這些工人是我們社區和經濟得以維持的支柱。我們借此機會對各位表達充心的感謝。
我想感謝居民Alice在我們區里一個公寓(40 Bay Mills Boulevard) 掛起支持前線工作人員的橫幅。
請與您的家人和朋友分享此電郵。如果各位希望收到我們的每日更新，請將電子郵件地址發送給我：This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.。
