“To understand that they have to work for their goals and not expect to be handed them without any effort” - one of the best points in this article!

I met American firefighters up north who came to help - and they had nothing but praise for Manitoba. To those in U.S. Congress trying to score points off our wildfire crisis: now’s not the time. People are grieving. Communities still at risk. Let’s focus on helping.
