A pair of Wawa brothers were recognized in Parliament recently, as local MP Carol Hughes touted efforts by Northerners to "raise spirits and bring a smile to others".
Noting Northerners have taken to social media to share talents, stories, and ways to help others through the winter amid the pandemic, the Algoma-Manitoulin-Kapuskasing MP highlighted various community-minded projects to help others get outdoors and enjoy the season, including Myles and Spencer Jennings, who've cleared and maintained a skating path and small hockey rink on Wawa Lake.
Hughes also highlighted concerts from Manitoulin Island musicians, improvements to an Espanola snowshoe trail, and a photo scavenger hunt on Kapuskasing hiking trails.
