Residents in the area (North Parallel & Sumas Mt Road) of the blowing smoke are encouraged to stay indoors due to the potential of the smoke being toxic. Wind is pushing North / West. Assessment is currently in progress.

#WorldDiabetesDay This year marks the 100th anniversary of Banting and Best and the discovery of insulin. And for that we are thankful 💗. Educate yourself for those living with this 24/7/365. #mysuperhero

I am stunned by Mr. Trudeau's statement that he is not fighting Indigenous children in court. In June, the federal government litigated against First Nations kids to deny them help under Jordan's Principle and to avoid paying compensation to victims of fed. discrimination.

@WabKinew Thank you @wabKinew for speaking the truth, giving correction and rebuke with such dignity, strength and self-control. You gave a master's class on how to speak up when something hurtful, misinformed and inappropriate is being said.

Edmonton's CFL team has renamed itself the "Elks." And a little message to a bunch of other sports teams who should probably do the same: that wasn't so hard, was it?

📣RETWEET📣 if you think the federal government needs to support First Nations in the wake of this tragedy, immediately implement the TRC Calls to Action, and stop fighting First Nations children in court. #cdnpoli

Reflecting on reports of children’s bodies found at Kamloops Residential School, I choose to remember the resilience and tenacity of my grandma Joan Perry. A survivor of KIRS and an unwavering advocate for education. I can only aspire to live up to my namesake.

Just learning about Bill C-10 and the threat to #freespeech it poses to #Canadians. Our MPs need to hear from us on this one!

[Dr. Leslyn Lewis @LeslynLewis]

Bill C-10 is a dangerous precedent. Harmful speech is sufficiently regulated by civil & criminal courts. The Bill will create an echo chamber of compelled speech where those who disagree with the dominant group will live in fear. Governments exist to govern, not to rule over us.

Nearly 1000 B.C. residents had their internet service disrupted when a beaver chewed through a cable. No word yet as to when they’ll get the dam thing working again.
