Deeply saddened by the situation in Wainwright today. Several lives lost and a number of injuries. With local media resources virtually non-existent and only skeleton staffs in most regional newsrooms, speculation and misinformation in rushing to fill the void. 1/2

Newsrooms across the country having to make impossible decisions about what is more important today with already stretched resources Reporters thinking they were about to cover a referendum now covering large-scale disaster Misinformation raging Local journalism matters

One of my first jobs was at CKSA TV/Radio in Lloydminster many years ago. The TV station shut down several years ago, local radio was gutted and the daily newspaper was shuttered. On a day like today, when credible information is urgently needed, there’s virtually none available.

On October 8, the U.K. announced a major new initiative to accelerate progress on dementia, including a £48 million partnership to advance research and clinical trials and an £80 million program to improve earlier diagnosis. The investments will bring together government, researchers, industry and people with lived experience to accelerate innovation and help promising treatments reach patients sooner. Canada has an opportunity to build on this momentum. “Through stronger coordination and continued investment in its National Dementia Strategy, meaningful progress on diagnosis, treatment and care can be made,” says Christina Scicluna, CEO of the Alzheimer Society of Canada. “People living with dementia and their care partners deserve nothing less.” #Dementia #DementiaResearch #AlzheimersDisease

The transitions between each section are incredibly smooth. It’s so good that I got completely absorbed in this arrangement and almost forgot about the original soundtrack.

Thanks to @Zoomer for sharing this article on #dementia care in Canada by my colleague @SaskiaSiva of @TheBrainwell. Take a minute to read it. zoomer.com/health/2026/09/25…

Dementia Care Puts Families in the Driver’s Seat – Whether They Like it or Not

Loved ones are left to coordinate services, navigate a complex system and make critical decisions, largely on their own.

During #WorldAlzheimersMonth, take a moment to read this important article from @SaskiaSiva of @TheBrainwell Institute: theconversation.com/families…

Families provide dementia care. Why must they also be the air traffic controllers of the system?

Families are still expected to navigate disconnected health and community services on their own. A new report sets out what governments can do to change that.
