Toronto & Area

Welcome to the Toronto & Area Branch

Hello fellow retirees. I am honoured to step into the role of president for the Toronto & Area Branch of the National Association of Federal Retirees after my election at our Oct. 14, 2025, AGM. I have had the privilege of working with the branch executive over the past year as Treasurer and that experience gave me a great appreciation for the dedication, knowledge, and teamwork that make this branch so strong.

I’m excited to continue working with our executive — both new and returning members — as we focus on revitalizing the branch and finding fresh, meaningful ways to engage with our members. Together, we’ll be exploring new initiatives, events, and opportunities to ensure we’re meeting the evolving needs of all federal retirees in our area.

Your ideas and participation are vital to our success. In that regard:
