Climate change isn’t a tragedy, it’s a crime.
It's hard to ignore the ongoing inequities in Canada. An entire community should never be left this vulnerable. When governments repeatedly ignore calls for better infrastructure, emergency planning, and climate resilience, tragedies like this become far more devastating.
