At least 19 people have been shot and killed in Nova Scotia. Heartbreak doesn’t quite cover the level of pain the province, the town, the friends and families of those who died are feeling right now. Thinking of Canada today and every day. ?

Justin Trudeau addressed the tragedy on April 20 during his daily COVID-19 briefing and announced there would be a virtual vigil Friday, April 24 in place of a physical one."Canadians are kind and generous," the Prime Minister said. "We are there for each other and we look out for one another. As families grieve the loss of a loved one, all Canadians are standing with them... This is a difficult time and it can be a scary time, too. But we’re here for you and we’re going to get through this together, I promise."The virtual vigil will be held on the Colchester- Supporting our Communities Facebook page on April 24.[video_embed id='1941625']BEFORE YOU GO: Ryan & Blake promote ‘boring’ shirt for COVID-19 relief[/video_embedTo those who lost loved ones following the senseless violence in Nova Scotia, and to the @RCMPNS family mourning the loss of Cst.
