Description: This is a black t-shirt with the words "This Is Our Shot" printed on the front in red and white. Next to the slogan is an "X" formed by two band-aids with a Canadian maple leaf in the centre. The logo is also on the right shoulder of the shirt.

Object History: This shirt was worn by community leaders throughout Burnaby and the country in a national campaign for vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic. This campaign was shared on television and online under the #TogetherAgain hashtag, with images of vaccine recipients and their reasons for getting vaccinated against coronavirus written on the bandaid. In Burnaby, this shirt was distributed by several medical groups. This particular shirt was given to the Burnaby Public Library by the Burnaby Division of Family Practice. The doctors working within this division were very active on social media, sharing images of themselves wearing the shirts and information regarding the #TogetherAgain campaign. Local politicians also shared information and images of themselves supporting the campaign, including Katrina Chen, the MLA for Burnaby-Lougheed.

Heritage Value: In 1911, a brick building was built to replace the smaller wooden structure that had served as Burnaby's Municipal Hall since 1899. This new, larger structure was built to reflect Burnaby's growth into a large suburban municipality and remained in use for over 40 years. The old Municipal Hall became a public hall which was demolished upon the construction of the Edmonds Branch of the Burnaby Public Library in 1962. The second Municipal Hall was renovated in 1956 (when the current City Hall was built at Canada Way), and was used as a Police building. In 1966 after the construction of the new Justice Building, the old 1911 Municipal Hall was left vacant and in 1970 it was demolished. The site was redeveloped as a senior citizens residential centre with Edmonds House built on the old hall location.
