Well, imagine my surprise to wake up this morning and find out Edmonton suffered an (alleged) terror attack.
Details are still coming in, but so far it seems that no one was killed, but several people were injured including at least one police officer, and a suspect is in custody.
There will be those who use this as justification for bigoted attacks on immigrants or Muslims in general, but I believe most Canadians are smart enough to see through such things.
Still, positive vibes and prayers are appreciated, so keep em coming.

These things seem to happen all around the world pretty much at random, so we can't let them change the way we live our lives. Just hang in there!
Here is the report in the NYT:

The main thing is that you
The main thing is that you are unhurt and safe. And that no one was killed. Many years ago I spent 2 months in a war zone, where we heard or saw the fighting every day. That is very stressful, so if you need to talk, we are here for you.
