Seniors forced from their homes by a devastating fire at a St. Albert care home have started the process of being placed in new homes, says the facility’s operator.
Dozens of people were forced from their homes last Thursday as a fire tore through Citadel Mews West in the community north of Edmonton last Thursday. The blaze lit the night sky as it tore through the building while residents and neighbours watched firefighters battle the blaze. Everyone living at the home made it out of the building and most were temporarily moved to the St. Albert Inn.

Good Samaritans, fire crews, police and staff are being praised for helping more than 200 people escape two seniors buildings in St. Albert safely Thursday evening.
The Citadel Mews West Continuing Care Facility caught fire just before 8 p.m., and bystanders, local residents and staff rushed to help get residents out the doors.
Richard Belley s 86-year-old father, Maurice, had lived in the residence for five or six years and was among the 100 from that building to be evacuated.

Up until recently, it’s likely that the word ‘Bitcoin’ wasn’t part of your vernacular. Sure, you’d heard it in passing, it may have piqued your interest again last year when Maisie Williams said she bought some, but how much do you know about how Bitcoin works?
The cryptocurrency has seen a seismic return in recent weeks. It’s value rose to £27,000 per Bitcoin from £3,600 in March last year after Tesla owner Elon Musk told social media users that Bitcoin was ‘a good thing’.

What a time to be alive used to be a euphoric and jubilant phrase that celebrated life and the world we lived in.
