Speaking with our beloved Mayor Hazel Mccallion is an honor I will cherish forever.✨She was one of the greatest female leaders who transformed Mississauga & taught us so much strength. Thank you for your incredible life of service. ❤️🙏🏽 #HazelMcCallion#HurricaneHazel
I have some very fond memories of Hazel McCallion from years ago while I was volunteering at Rogers TV in Peel Region. She ALWAYS made herself available to the young journalists learning the ropes. I was amazed by her energy and dedication to her city. Rest easy, Hurricane Hazel.

Quite the temperature contrast once again this morning across Canada. The good news, the extreme #cold alerts from @environmentca have been cancelled for #Edmonton & most of AB. The bad news, the frigid air fully into Sask & Manitoba. Risk of frostbite high this am in #Regina!
