Hi Deb Where in Canada do you live? I am in Brisbane, Australia, but am Vancouver born with relatives living in Newfoundland. I was thinking of finding an overseas facility to exchange a monthly email - like a pen friend style - to be shared with our Residents. (Our facility is 58 Residents, low and high care and dementia.) Maybe I would share the email at happy hour. I have Residents interested in Canada and who have travelled there. Any chance you might be interested? Or could forward my interest to someone else? [email protected] We could probably come with all kinds of ideas if you had the time/interest? I've already checked the site golden carers have given you for Canada and love it!
I was hesitant at first to sign up for another website for activities, but I have been pleasantly surprised. It has been fun to search all you have to offer and during Covid-19 your site has helped me and our other Life Enrichment Coordinator so much. I truly appreciate all you do and provide. It just gets better all the time. Our residents love the word searches because they are so bold and clear. We have used many of your ideas and I’m so grateful! Thank you!

I love, love this site. I am from Canada and I was wondering if you have anything that pertains to our Country?
Thanks Deb
Thank you so much! Yes we have a category dedicated to Canada and many Canadian members.
