Looking back at past pandemics

One of the ways we learn and grow is through relating to others and their lived experiences. There are many stories of hope, resilience and inspiration from our people and from others around the province, as we come together to pull through this challenging time. As we reflect on these stories, we see that for many this is our first time living and working through a pandemic, while there are others who have been through this before.

Joining me this week to look back and see what we have overcome, how it relates to our current experience, and what we can learn from the past, are:

  • Colin Zieber, Senior Operating Officer in the South Zone.
  • And his mother, Treva Zieber, who worked as a nurse both in Calgary and Edmonton during polio and TB outbreaks.

It’s a unique vlog this week and I encourage you to watch for a message of hope and a reminder of how we are making history.
