Canada, we have to do better on gun control. There is no way we can let this school shooting in Tumbler Ridge go unaddressed. We are not USians. We MUST respond to this, and we must do so together as a nation.
It is NOT okay that school shootings happen. Not here. Not anywhere. We MUST solve this.

Shortest month
Longest month
Iced in, implacable, between early winter months with their seasonal hopes, night twinkling lights to cheer
And elusive March promising the cusp of spring
Snow full moon rises
Brightly reminding us only courage prevails through storms ahead. Til spring.
