Beware of politicians cynically co-opting things like #JasperStrong, especially if their only climate "policy" is #AxeTheTax. It's like #ThoughtsAndPrayers from NRA-funded US politicians after mass-shootings. Ask instead how they'll turn the heat down. /17

I'm not #JasperStrong I'm #JasperAngry. It was all predicted. #Jasper was preventable, as were the 600 Canadians killed from #ExtremeHeat in BC in 2021. It's irrefutable: keep on as we have & the only certainty is MORE JASPERS & MORE DEAD CANADIANS /12 www.theguardian.com/world/articl...

After “massive public outcry” and Trudeau posting the feds will match Red Cross donations, Danielle Smith will release evacuee funds now instead of making Jasperites wait for 7 days—and AB govt will also match Red Cross donations.

While I don't disagree, there will be time enough for accountability and finger pointing, but now is not that time, and I don't want to politicize the thread(s) at a time I think all of us share a deep grief.

In solidarity, let's be #JasperStrong

Not everything in Jasper was burned down. Our favourite place to stay Becker’s Chalets on the banks of the Athabasca River survived. Looking forward to seeing them next year but I feel terrible for all the Jasperites who lost their homes.
