Let's talk about physical distancing! To slow down the spread of COVID-19, you should keep at least 2 metres away from individuals outside of the people you live with. Stay safe & help prevent the spread!

Follow these tips on how to stay WARM outside! 1. Start with a base layer. 2. Middle layer - a sweater or sweatshirt. 3. Winter jacket - go for something long, cold rated & water-resistant.... 4. Wear a scarf, gloves/mittens and a toque/beanie. 5. Wear warm pants or layer thermals/leggings under them for extra warmth. 6. Warm socks! 7. Winter boots - these will keep you warm/dry & provide traction on slippery sidewalks/floors. Stay warm & be safe!

Let's talk about cohorts! A COVID-19 cohort is a small group of the same people who interact regularly without staying 2 metres apart. Cohorts can include your household & up to 15 other people. For example, household members, immediate family & social circle.... Everyone in your core cohort should: -belong to only 1 core cohort. -limit interactions with people outside the cohort. Stay safe!

Lest we forget. Every year, at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, Remembrance Day, we honour all who have served and sacrificed for our country. We also acknowledge the courage of those who still serve today.

Today is World Kindness Day. This year has been difficult but with the kindness shown throughout the community, it has made it a little more hopeful. Thank you. We encourage you to show some extra kindness to those around you!

Don't forget to join us tomorrow evening to learn everything about Canada's Recovery Benefits! See you there!

Thank you to the Brooks Fire Department & RCMP for letting our volunteers learn more about what you do. Our volunteers even got to sit in the firetruck & see how all the equipment works!
