An unthinkable tragedy in Richmond Hill: a car crashed into a daycare, taking the life of a 1.5-year-old child, and injuring children and staff. My heart aches for the families, caregivers, and community shattered by this loss. No parent should ever endure such pain. 💔
— Senator Salma Ataullahjan (@SenatorSalma)
