À propos de cet audio
This episode tells the story of Maggie Gay, an isolated senior who lived alone in a basement suite in Saanichton at the time of the 2021 heat dome. Maggie shares her experience of living in a more rural part of the Greater Victoria area, and how this led to underserviced public transportation resources like bus shelters, and city buses. She shares the challenges she’s encountered that come with being a senior and living alone and the shift in the size of her community as she ages. This episode iterates the importance of interpersonal and community connection in times of crises, particularly during extreme weather events.
