Days : Hours : Minutes : Seconds We tried our best :'( April’s basic necessities were not fully met. The goal was $625, but only $440 of that was met. The minimum for April was $375, but only $190 was received for April essentials. The rest of that $440 covered overdue March costs and groceries for the first weeks of April. Since April’s overdue utilities and internet were already handled, the remaining $185 is the groceries gap. That shortfall now carries into May.

It's something you *do*, and have to keep repeating, for it to count. And only the people you're trying to help get to decide whether you succeeded. #ally #progressive #lgbtq #lgbtqia #disabled #disability #advocacy #neurodivergent #PoC #minority #feminism

Renewed attempt to stop coal mining in Rockies Since 2020, coal mining has been especially contentious in Alberta. During that time, country musician Corb Lund became a vocal opponent of coal exploration in the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains.
