National Book Lovers Day is Today! 📚
If you love a good read that makes you think and moves you to act, here’s a book for you. 💛

💡 What if capitalism could be used to build stronger communities, not just profits?

This is the true story of Canada’s first social acquisition—where three charities and nine purpose-driven investors came together to transform a private business into a people-first, multi-million dollar company.

It’s about bold ideas, lasting impact, and how business can be a force for good. Perfect for National Book Lovers Day, or anyone who believes in doing business differently.

Let’s Talk About Arthritis: Risk Factors & Prevention Tips 🦴

Arthritis isn’t just “a little stiffness”—it can cause pain, swelling, and make it harder to move the way you want. And it’s more common than you might think, touching the lives of millions of Canadians of all ages. 💙

Some things that can increase your risk:
⚠️ Getting older – Our joints naturally change over time.
⚠️ Family history – Sometimes it runs in the family.
⚠️ Past injuries – Old bumps, sprains, or breaks can cause trouble later.
⚠️ Extra weight – More pressure means more strain on joints.
⚠️ Repetitive movements – Doing the same motion over and over can wear joints out.

Simple ways to protect your joints:
✅ Stay moving – Walking, swimming, or gentle yoga keep you limber.
✅ Keep a healthy weight – Your joints will thank you.
✅ Lift and move safely – Use proper form to avoid strain.
✅ Eat for joint health – Leafy greens, berries, fish, and nuts are all winners.
✅ Listen to your body – Rest when you need to and never push through sharp pain.

Tech Tip for Seniors: What’s a QR Code & How Do You Use It?📱

Ever seen a black-and-white square pattern on a poster, flyer, or product? That’s a QR code—short for “Quick Response”! It’s a fast way to access a website, menu, video, or more just by using your phone.

How to scan it safely:
1️⃣Open your phone’s camera (no special app needed for most phones).
2️⃣Point it at the QR code, no need to tap!
3️⃣A link will pop up. Make sure it’s from a trusted source before clicking.

✅ Pro tip: If the link looks suspicious or you’re not sure where it leads, don’t click it. Safety first!

Hot Days = More Sips! 💦

Hey, sunshine! 😎 Summer’s here, and staying hydrated is a must especially for our awesome seniors. Here are some easy ways to beat the heat and keep your body happy:

🥤 Drink up! Don’t wait ‘til you’re thirsty—keep that water bottle close!
🍉 Snack smart – Munch on juicy treats like watermelon, cucumber, and oranges.
🧂 Watch sodium intake – Salty snacks can make you thirstier and dehydrate you faster.
🚫 Cool it on the coffee & cocktails – They sneakily dehydrate you.
⏰ Set a reminder – A little phone buzz to drink water never hurts.

Let’s keep things chill, refreshed, and full of good vibes this summer! ☀️

Summer Health Myth Debunked! 🌞

Myth: You can’t get sunburned while you’re in the water.
Truth: UV rays don’t take a break just because you’re swimming! 🌊

Water reflects sunlight, and that bounce-back effect can actually increase your sun exposure. Even if you feel cool, your skin could still be burning.☀️

✅ Tip: Always apply a broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen before swimming and reapply every 2 hours (or after towel drying)!

Let’s keep your summer safe, fun, and sunburn-free! 💛
