Missed today’s #yegcc rec talks.

Instead, spent my day buckling & unbuckling boots of 50 @freeplayforkids youth who we took 🎿 for first time.

I challenge council to reflect:

1. Who is here?
2. Why?
3. Who is NOT here?
4. Why?
5. Who do we want to help?

I’d pick Vekka.

Critically important spot lights are finally on sport.

Our job now is to switch them from occasional flashes to constants that never go out.

Sport is the place to lead the fight for access, equity, inclusion & justice.

@freefootieyeg is in.

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

They may not wear capes,
Or have superhuman powers,
But the sacrifices they make
To help the world's most vulnerable
Makes them our #RealLifeHeroes.

On #WorldHumanitarianDay, we thank all humanitarians who are making the world a better place!

‘I promise, from this moment on, things will get better’

Today is World Humanitarian Day. Please take a moment to read Salome’s story, one on the most remarkable interviews I’ve done. She truly embodies what it is to be a humanitarian worker.

"I know many of the people attempting this deadly journey across the central Mediterranean are doing so because it is their only option. This strengthens my sense of purpose as a medic, even as the practical/political barriers to delivering lifesaving assistance at sea increase"

LRT: Soccer isn't just about kicking a ball. There's something so much deeper, the sense of community that's built. I've developed so many friendships through Canadian soccer. So maybe it's not a surprise at all that the soccer community has rallied to support Chris's family.

The progress on our fifth Skate School is well underway in Bamyan. At this stage, some walls are going up and there is a second floor in place. At this time next year, we hope to have students in those classrooms and in the first indoor concrete skatepark in Afghanistan.

[Hope and Football @HopeAndFootball]

Amazing outcomes! Very inspiring! Keep going @football_united!

“Coach” means leader, listener & lifelong learner.

Our junior coaching program @FreeFootieYeg is a perfect example.

Soon we will watch these amazing youth take on the world.
