@CityNewsVAN personally as a youth indigenous advocate. i say this is amazing and a great idea, but as i am graduating 22-23 year i think it’s almost fair to give high schools a heads up. so people who are graduating 23-24 don’t have to take a course and possibly mess up courses for grad.

"All of our downstairs floors have drowned."
Tens of thousands of chickens are dead, but one poultry farmer says efforts continue to save 'top floor barns which have young chickens.' #Abbotsford#BCFlood
