Welcome to the Mary Ward Centre

On June 24th, please join us for a 2 km peaceful interfaith community walk and rally at City Hall. The event will include stops at the Toronto Homeless Memorial and the Spirit Garden with speakers and artists. Food, dental and other supplies will be provided for outreach.

The World Cup is the world’s biggest stage—a moment of unity and celebration that captures our collective imagination. But as we look toward 2026, when Canada, the U.S., and Mexico will co-host the event, we have to face a sobering reality. Behind the excitement lies a dangerous opening for those who seek to exploit the most vulnerable.

One of the world's most important sporting events is approaching, and Canada will host 13 matches. Events of this magnitude involve enormous risks.
