November 11 Remembrance Day❤️

As we get closer to November 11, we wanted to take a moment to remind everyone to pause, reflect, and thank the incredible men and women who have served, sacrificed, and continue to serve our countries.

Behind every uniform is a real person, with their own family, loved ones, and story. We are so grateful to everyone who has fought for our freedom, those who have served and continue to serve, and the families who have supported them along the way.

❤️ Make sure to get your poppy pin and wear it proudly! It's a small but meaningful way to show your support, gratitude, and remembrance.

To all our amazing veterans and active service members, thank you for your courage, dedication, and everything you have done and continue to do. We are truly grateful. ❤

Lest We Forget.

How does telling someone you trust help?

1. It breaks the shame.
When you hide, shame grows. When you speak, shame loses power. You realize you are not the only one.

2. It stops you from chasing.
When you are alone after a loss, your brain says "bet again, recover it." When you tell someone, you pause. That pause saves you money.

3. It gives you accountability.
That one person will ask you tomorrow, "How was today?" That question alone stops many relapses.

4. It brings you support, not judgement.
A trusted person can hold your phone, hold your money for a while, pray with you, or just sit with you when urge comes.

You don't need to tell the whole world. Just ONE person.

Say this: "I am struggling with gambling. I don't need money, I just need you to know."

That one sentence has saved many people here.

Who is that one person for you?
To those who trusted this page,thank you..Your story is safe,hearing your Victory and sometimes struggles is my duty.Iam always there as a shield not because am perfect,but because your story was my story 5 years ago.
Keep fighting
Keep growing
Keep recovering.

TRAGEDY NEAR BELLA COOLA: TWO FOUND DEAD IN SUSPECTED GRIZZLY BEAR ATTACK

A heartbreaking tragedy has unfolded in British Columbia’s Central Coast region after two people were found dead near the Snooka West Trail outside Bella Coola.

The victims, reported to be a mother and her adult daughter, were discovered following a search in the area.

According to reports, one person was found on November 2, followed by the second on November 3, 2026.

The B.C. Conservation Officer Service is investigating evidence suggesting that a grizzly bear may have been involved in the deaths.

Authorities have not yet conclusively determined the circumstances surrounding the incident.

PUBLIC SAFETY WARNING

Residents, hikers and visitors are being urged to stay away from the Snooka West Trail area while the investigation continues.

This tragic incident serves as a reminder of the importance of wildlife awareness and respecting safety advisories when exploring British Columbia’s wilderness.

Our thoughts are with the victims’ family, friends and the Bella Coola community during this incredibly difficult time.

Children learn care by being cared for.

They learn respect by being respected, boundaries by seeing them honored, and what an apology looks like when we’re willing to give one.

Long before they can explain any of it, they’re taking notes on what relationships feel like.

And we get to be their first example.

That’s a pretty extraordinary opportunity. ❤️

Though it has been two years since the passing of the Honourable Murray Sinclair (Mazina Giizhik-iban), we continue to feel his presence in every aspect of our work at the Centre. His wisdom, compassion and dedication to Survivors continues to guide us every day.

When he presented the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Final Report, he said “We have described for you a mountain. We have shown you a path to the top. We call upon you to do the climbing.”

To honour his memory, we ask that begin your climb by reading, learning, and committing to answering the Calls to Action however you can: https://nctr.ca/about/truth-and-reconciliation-commission-of-canada-calls-to-action/

🚨 More than 1.5 million supposedly anonymous Crime Stoppers tips have been exposed in a massive data breach, and now British Columbia's privacy watchdog is investigating.

This is a particularly disturbing breach because anonymity isn't just a convenience for people reporting crimes. For some, it's a matter of personal safety.

An exclusive CBC News investigation revealed that tips submitted to Crime Stoppers programs across Canada over the past 25 years had been compromised.

Many contained serious allegations involving organized crime, drug trafficking and potentially dangerous individuals. Some tipsters explicitly expressed fears of retaliation.

These are people who came forward believing their identities and information would be protected.

The data was stolen in March by a hacktivist collective that claimed it wanted to challenge the security and anonymity promises made by P3 Global Intel, the company managing the tip platform.

Whatever the hackers' stated intentions, exposing sensitive information on this scale creates serious risks for the people who trusted the system.

B.C.'s Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner is now investigating whether the provincial Crime Stoppers society took reasonable steps to safeguard personal information. The federal privacy commissioner is also examining the breach.

Several Crime Stoppers chapters and police agencies have suspended participation or paused tip collection. Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers is currently asking people not to submit information through its program.

That disruption raises another concern: what happens to public safety when people lose confidence in confidential reporting systems?

And how many people might now hesitate to report serious crimes because they no longer trust promises of anonymity?

We need answers about how this information was stored, who had access to it, what security safeguards failed and what protections will be put in place for those potentially exposed.

This is precisely the kind of investigative journalism that CBC provides. Without its original reporting, Canadians might not have learned the scale of this breach or the risks facing people who came forward in good faith.

💬 Should organizations collecting sensitive anonymous tips face stronger independent security audits and mandatory disclosure requirements?

And what responsibility should technology contractors bear when the systems they manage fail to protect vulnerable people?
