I went through the same thing with hurricane Katrina. My neighbourhood looked the same. I wish I was closer to come and help. People need more moral support than anything else right now.

Amanda is intelligent, definitely has a working plan to get things back in order and her concern for her citizens genuine. She's a keeper. Wishing all of Cape Breton, the rest of the storm victims all the best and a speedy recovery from here in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada

    Heartbreaking indeed! Wishing them all the best and a quick recovery! Very stressful! Have lived through other hurricanes in the past on the east coast of New England, the last big one, Hurricane Bob in 1991 when we were without power for five days and without water and then the "Perfect Storm" at the end of October 1991 which inspired the big blockbuster film directed by Stephen Spielberg, "The Perfect Storm", three storm systems in one!

    Where's that support for the homeless any other day? While they are being evicted from their homes due to the inflation, other disasters like fires, and such. When people put up shelters, they took chainsaws just because, they didn't want to look at the devastation society created in these people. Yet, a hurricane blows through and now, they have empathy. It's "top priority" to shelter these people. I can only imagine what this really means for society and the economy. Especially, in the midst of a inflation and housing crisis. While, food banks can barely keep up and don't have enough food to give to people already. The Maritime's are looking at a sad future for the next little bit.

    Global CO2 levels are 420ppm and AGGI is 585ppm, why aren't the corporate news outlets explaining to everyone what their fossil fuel lifestyle is doing and going to do
    Why are they not helping to destroy the fossil fuel economy
