Fort McMurray has chronic supply shortages at the best of times. Fort McMurray is incredibly connected through social media. Most of the population communicates through local Facebook groups. Currently exploding with where can I find ANYTHING posts and photos of empty shelves. No milk, bread, meat, eggs, produce, diapers etc. Like bare. It’s like everyone suddenly woke up.

I was thinking ahead two weeks ago. I secured at least a two month supply of...cat food and cat litter bah ha ha. I also have a bit of food for me. ?
 
I was at the Beddington COOP yesterday and it was mostly business as usual. A few items (like pasta, butter and toilet paper) sold out, but for the most part well stocked.
 
Likely only University of Lethbridge, University of Alberta and University of Calgary. Only University of Calgary is announced so far.
MRU announced this evening they are following UCalgary’s lead - only for lectures, otherwise campus remains open.
