Like all Saskatchewan people, I’m saddened by the destruction and loss caused by the forest fire in Fort McMurray and I know that all Saskatchewan people are keeping the residents of Fort McMurray in their thoughts and prayers.
I’m struck by the harrowing stories of families rushing to leave with nothing more than the clothes on their back. The pictures and video from the evacuation are truly terrifying. But I’m also struck by the resolve and generosity of the residents taking care of each other, sharing supplies, and opening their homes to evacuees.
