@CTVVancouver This is good news. I also welcome change and modernization to the mental health act. As long as it’s going to make supporting people with mental health needs easier with less gaps in service.

The HEROS program is officially back on the ice!

HEROS is a volunteer driven charity that teaches life skills and empowers marginalized youth through hockey. They provide free programs to youth of all backgrounds from grade four through post-secondary.

VicPD officers, including Sergeant Sheldon McLean, stopped by to help lace up skates and support these young athletes. The relationships built here extend far beyond the rink, fostering community spirit and connection.

We're proud to be part of this initiative and to help make a positive impact in our community 🏒

@ChefMedic Awew, thanks! This was an honour. I am very humbled.
