Gratitude to the communities of Fort McKay and Anzac that took in residents of Fort McMurray who were evacuated, they were welcomed into homes, fed and given shelter at a time when we were so unsure of what would happen.
Gratitude that we will forever feel towards our First Responders who helped safely evacuate 80,000 people and fought to save our city.
Gratitude to all of the people across the province and country who reached out to help. Whether it was donations to the Red Cross and evacuation centres, or hugs and smiles in random places.
We’re honoured to be a part of the events being held today to help heal as a community.
