Three generations of the Afzaal family were taken from us one year ago today in London, Ont.
Four members of the family were killed in a horrific act of terror. Combating Islamophobia must be a national priority and hatred has no place in our 🇨🇦 communities.

National Indigenous History Month begins today! Throughout this month we’ll highlight how Indigenous communities are elevating conservation through Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs), and their many benefits. What’s an #IPCA? We’ll answer in this thread.

"Our family did not choose war.
We did not choose to lose loved ones, our Syrian home or the life we had built sharing chocolate across the middle east.
No one chooses to be a refugee.
The chocolate in your hand is made possible because the people of Canada chose kindness.."🇨🇦❤️
