Our hearts are with the families, students, educators, and the entire community of Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia as you face the unimaginable in the wake of yesterday’s tragedy.

In moments like this, words cannot adequately express the sorrow felt for those affected, but please know you are not alone. Communities across Canada are holding you in care, compassion, and solidarity.

We honour those lost, stand with those injured, and send strength to everyone carrying grief, shock, and fear today.

To the first responders, health teams, educators, and neighbours supporting one another— thank you for showing what community looks like in the darkest moments.

If you are hurting, reach out. Connection matters. Kindness matters. Support matters.

Holding Tumbler Ridge in our thoughts and hearts. 💙

There are serious health inequities facing Canadian women that have gone unnoticed or ignored. With the support of the Shoppers Drug Mart Foundation for Women’s Health Community Grants Program, we’re developing the Strongest Beginnings: Equitable Perinatal Mental Health Support Without Barriers program.

This initiative will address how maternal mental health care is delivered and accessed across Canada. Find out more about Strongest Beginnings and the Shoppers Foundation for Women’s Health™ Community Grants Program here:

It’s time to make women’s health visible.
