Love Where You Live

Its National Nurses Week. Because of you, we live in a happier, healthier world. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Happy Nurses Week.⁠

TEACHER APPRECIATION DAY

School teachers around the province and beyond have been working to shift over to remote learning. We appreciate the hard work and care that goes into it all. 

Appreciation goes out to all the parents stepping up during COVID-19 to help their children with their daily lessons and taking time to learn new things through play, baking, adventures, arts & crafts, learning new games and more.

It is unsure times for many and we want to help pass on as many resources as possible. If you have been laid off or are unable to work due to COVID-19 and require financial assistance there are ways that the Canadian Governement is trying to help.
