🚨⚠️Unhappy with ECCC Wx social media accounts being deactivated?? I encourage you to voice your concerns at this link!!!!!!!

[Jordan Carruthers🌪🌩🇨🇦 @ExtremeStormJC]

This is highly disappointing and a huge step backwards in public weather alerts, Knowledge and reporting for Canadian Citizens. Not only is the @ECCCWeatherMB account shutting down, All of the ECCC X pages are shutting down.

If you do not agree with this decision I Highly recommend you write to the Minister of Environment and express your concerns. @juliedabrusin
