Mine began in a beautiful small town in Northern Alberta, called Fort McMurray. A town that drew people from all over the world to set roots and achieve their dreams.
Much as been written about Fort McMurray over the years, knows for it’s oil riches. But what those of us who have spent any significant amount of time there know, is what an incredible sense of community and connection it fostered. Which is why the devastation of this wild fire is especially difficult to bear.
It has been many years since I’ve lived in Fort McMurray, but it will always be home. And today, that home is hurting. My community is suffering.
Fort McMurray may be my home, but it is Canada’s city. Offering so much hope, growth and prosperity for all of us.
