Message from Mayor Hon. Maurizio Bevilacqua, P.C., Vaughan
I am pleased to express my warmest and sincerest congratulations on the 60th anniversary of Jamaica’s Independence. This year’s theme, “Re-igniting a Nation for Greatness,” is an opportunity to reflect on the meaningful achievements and contributions Jamaicans have made to Vaughan, Canada and around the world.
Vaughan is home to a vibrant Jamaican and Caribbean community that remains a vital part of our social, economic and cultural fabric. Through hard work, dedication and compassion, the Jamaican diaspora plays a vital role in our city’s success story. It is a community that has helped shape our nation into the best place to live, work and raise a family. I want to express my gratitude for your friendship, spirit of generosity and extraordinary influence on Canada.
In the city of Vaughan, diversity is one of our greatest strengths. We are proud to live in a place where people of all backgrounds are empowered and celebrated. It reminds us of the power of cooperation and how we can all learn from each other to make the world a better place.
Once again, please accept my best wishes on this momentous occasion. I look forward to the incredible celebrations you have planned throughout Vaughan and the GTHA in the coming months.
Yours sincerely,
Hon. Maurizio Bevilacqua, P.C. Mayor
