Greetings! The Department of Public Safety in partnership with the Toronto Police Service #Santa9114Kids and CP24 CHUM CHRISTMAS WISH will be collecting toys for our annual toy drive. Last year was a huge success! A big thanks goes to the Humber College community.

We were able to collect and donate hundreds of toys to several local hospitals, families, and single parents in the GTA that needed some help during the holiday season.

Please bring a new unwrapped toy to any one of these locations: Learning Resource Commons (LRC), Public Safety in NX101 (North Campus), M Building (Lakeshore Campus) or to the North or Lakeshore Residence reception area by December 15, 2021.

You can also order toys online and send toys to:

Humber College                                                                              
c/o Department of Public Safety

In Ontario, and across the Métis homeland, Louis Riel Day is celebrated on November 16, the anniversary of Riel’s execution in 1885. Although Louis Riel Day commemorates one of the great tragedies of Canadian history, it is also a day to celebrate Métis people and culture; and the continuing progress in fulfilling Riel’s dream with the Métis people taking their rightful place within Confederation.
