Seattle/Washington State Friends! My mother has agreed to move in with my sister if, and only if, we can find safe housing for her dogs. My sister is deathly allergic and I'm out of the country. Anyone looking for a hiking buddy? #Dogs#Seattle#PNW

On September 30, we honour the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools. Today is a day for reflection, remembrance, and supporting the ongoing journey of healing and reconciliation. #TruthAndReconciliation#EveryChildMatters#IndigenousEditors
