Photo: Albuquerque Indian Health Center. (cmh2315fl / Flickr) A new congressional resolution is confronting a painful chapter in federal health care for Native women. Lawmakers are formally condemning the non-consensual sterilization of thousands of Native women by the Indian Health Service in the 1970s. as Jeanette DeDios (Jicarilla Apache and Diné) reports. Sterilization abuse against Native women is at the center of a congressional resolution introduced this week. U.S. Reps. Sharice Davids (Ho-Chunk Nation), D-Kansas, and Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pennsylvania, introduced a resolution officially condemning the non-consensual sterilization of Native American women by IHS during the 1970s. According to Davids' office, a federal investigation found that between 1973 and 1976, IHS performed sterilization procedures on more than 3,400 Native women in four service areas without fully complying with informed consent requirements. The Government Accountability Office, then known as the General Accounting Office, found problems including inadequate consent forms, improper waiting periods, and procedures performed on women under the age of 21. The resolution acknowledges the lasting harm caused by the practice and calls for greater awareness of the federal government's role in the abuse. Davids says the history is personal for Native communities and that acknowledging what happened is necessary to rebuild trust. The resolution also calls for continued efforts to protect informed consent and reproductive autonomy for Native people receiving health care. Davids is one of the first two Native American women elected to Congress. (Courtesy National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation / Facebook) Across the country, Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians marked the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation this week. As Dan Karpenchuk reports, September 30, also known as Orange Shirt Day, has become an important day of survivors of Canada's notorious residential school system. It is also known as Orange Shirt Day and was declared by the Canadian government following the discovery of more than 200 unmarked gaves at the site of a former residential school in British Columbia. The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation says more than 150,000 First Nations, Métis, and Inuit children attened the schools between the mid 1800's to the late 1900's. Many of them never returned to their homes and families. The children were taken from their families and communites and sent the residential schools which were run by churches and financed by the government. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke in Edmonton about the sixth National Day for Truth and Reconcialiation. He said the day is about the children – those who survived and those who did not. “And this is not a distant chapter in Canada's past, but a truth that endures. And truth is the foundation of justice. We shouldn't choose, as we used to here, in Fort Edmonton, which parts of our history to remember. We shouldn't admire the bead work, and foreget the children that were forced into uniforms. We shoudn't honour the drum and ignore the years that it was made to fall silent. And we should not hear the truth of residential schools and fail to act on it.” Across Canada, survivors of the schools told their stories of abuse and loss of culture. In Ottawa, Governor General Louise Arbour said it is important for all Canadians to face their unsettling past. She said truth does not change the past; it is a reminder that memory carries responsibility, to recognize the injustices to learn from them, and to ensure that they are never repeated.

Your Basement Flooded. The Water Is Gone. But What If It Still Smells? Edmonton's unusually wet summer created serious problems for homeowners, landlords and tenants. Basements flooded, roofs leaked, restoration companies became overwhelmed, and months later some property owners are still trying to put their homes back together. Today's episode starts with a detailed question from an Edmonton real estate investor whose basement suites flooded during the summer. The restoration company removed drywall and flooring, dried the basement and reported that mold or mildew remediation wasn't required. But there's one problem: the tenant still detects an odor they believe smells like mold or mildew. What do you do before rebuilding everything? Wayne and Gabby's Experience With Flooded Properties This wasn't a hypothetical situation for Wayne and Gabby. Their portfolio experienced more than $100,000 in expenses related to this summer's rain and flooding. Some properties had relatively minor problems, while others required substantial work. One property remains vacant while they work through multiple sources of water intrusion and prepare to complete the renovation. Wayne explains why this year reinforced one of their biggest investing principles: cash flow isn't spending money. They keep the cash flow generated by their portfolio in reserves so that unexpected events don't force them to borrow money, sell properties or scramble for capital. The flood was expensive. But because they were prepared for an unexpected event, it didn't threaten the portfolio. Can a Basement Still Smell After Remediation? Wayne and Gabby have noticed lingering smells during some restoration projects. Their experience, however, has been that those smells disappeared once the renovation was fully completed. Wayne compares it to renovating extremely distressed properties. Cigarette smoke, animal odors and other smells can seem impossible to eliminate when you first enter a property. After proper cleaning, new flooring, paint, baseboards and other improvements, the finished property can smell completely different. That doesn't mean a property owner should assume an odor is harmless. The first priority is determining whether the remediation was completed correctly. What Should You Verify With the Restoration Company? Gabby suggests confirming exactly what the remediation company did. Was damaged material removed? Was disinfectant applied? Was proper drying equipment used? Were moisture levels checked before reconstruction was approved? Those are important questions because the goal isn't simply to hide an odor. It's to make sure the property has actually been properly remediated before rebuilding it. Should You Get a Second Opinion? One of the most practical suggestions from today's conversation is to bring in another restoration professional if you aren't confident in the first company's assessment. There are two different perspectives in this particular situation. The tenant believes they smell something. The restoration company says the property is ready. Gabby's suggestion is to introduce an independent third perspective. That could mean the landlord inspecting the property personally or asking another qualified restoration company to assess the work and provide a second opinion before the walls and flooring go back in. Wayne and Gabby agree that cutting corners doesn't make sense. Tearing a finished basement apart again because something was missed would be far more disruptive and expensive. Flooding Is a Landlord Responsibility Wayne also discusses something they saw repeatedly in Edmonton this summer: tenants looking for new rentals because their existing landlords hadn't properly repaired flooded basements. Removing standing water isn't the end of the job. A landlord has a responsibility to properly address water damage and make sure the property is safe before putting everything back together. Wayne emphasizes that the investor who submitted today's question appears to be taking that responsibility seriously. The fact that they're considering an independent environmental assessment demonstrates how seriously they're approaching the problem. The Bigger Investing Lesson: Build Your Reserves Flooding is also a reminder that owning rental property means dealing with expenses you can't predict. Wayne and Gabby's philosophy is to avoid spending the cash flow produced by their properties, particularly during the early years of ownership. Instead, cash flow builds reserves. A portfolio that looks fantastic on paper but doesn't have enough money available to handle a major repair is vulnerable. That's one reason Wayne uses the 5% Rule™ when evaluating properties: (Annual Cash Flow ÷ Down Payment) × 100 5–6% = sufficient 7–9% = strong 10%+ = excellent Cash flow creates the cushion that helps an investor survive the things nobody included in the original spreadsheet. Rapid-Fire: Edmonton's Rental Market The episode finishes with several investor questions. Wayne describes Edmonton's current rental market as highly competitive, with considerable rental supply giving tenants more choices. His expectation is that landlords will need to compete harder for strong tenants and that some rents may soften. At the same time, Wayne says he's currently achieving some of the strongest investment returns of his career. His distinction is important: a difficult rental market doesn't necessarily mean a bad acquisition market. Investors need to buy the right property and become much better at marketing and operating their rentals. How Should Someone Learn Real Estate Investing? Wayne's answer is education before acquisition. Understand how to choose a market, analyze a property and operate the investment before committing your savings or someone else's capital. The Canadian Real Estate Investing Morning Show provides free education and coaching every weekday morning at 7:00 AM Mountain Time. How Do You Buy More Properties When You've Run Out of Money? Wayne's rapid-fire answer: seller financing. Seller financing, including Agreements for Sale, played a major role in Wayne and Gabby's early portfolio growth. Rather than relying entirely on their own down payments or conventional financing, they learned how to structure transactions where the seller provided financing. It's one of Wayne's favourite strategies for experienced investors who understand how to buy and operate rental properties but have exhausted their available capital.

We got the third hour started with Mr Mikes Kind of Easy Trivia.    It was then time for Three Questions Too Many presented by Park Mazda.   It's Wednesday, which means Lt. Eric is back with another edition of his Weekly Power Rankings! Today, he ranked the top trade packages Edmonton could offer Winnipeg to land Connor Hellebuyck.   To close out the show, Frank Seravalli stopped by to dissect Tristan Jarry's nightmare opening night performance and weigh in on whether Devon Levi can step up in relief. Seravalli also shared his boldest predictions for the season—including the ultimate landing spot for Hellebuyck—and brought it all back to Edmonton to discuss when Mike Babcock's structural system will finally take hold.   We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff. 

Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin are back in studio with Producer Bordzy for another edition of ON Everyday, breaking down a wild opening night in Edmonton. The boys kick things off with a full recap of the Oilers' 6-5 overtime loss to the Vancouver Canucks. After struggling to generate much offensively for most of the night, Edmonton exploded late in the third period to force overtime — only to watch Paul Cotter bury the winner after a defensive breakdown. Tristan Jarry also had a difficult Oilers debut, allowing six goals on just 23 shots, and Tyler and Liam break down what went wrong for Edmonton at both ends of the ice. Despite the loss, Evan Bouchard had an absolutely incredible night, recording a hat trick and five points in the losing effort. Former NHL defenseman Jason Demers joins the show to break down Bouchard's performance and what makes the Oilers blueliner such a dangerous offensive weapon. Then, TSN analyst Cameron Gaunce joins Tyler and Liam to share his thoughts on the Oilers' season debut, the opening day of the NHL season, and some of the biggest storylines developing around the league. And we're not done yet! Dennis King joins the show to give his take on Edmonton's season opener, Jarry's struggles, Bouchard's huge night, and what the Oilers need to clean up moving forward. Finally, Tyler and Liam close things out with their daily betting picks courtesy of bet365. Let us know your biggest takeaway from the Oilers' wild opening night in the comments!

Steven Ellis joins to discuss McKenna's debut, his Calder Trophy pick and the group of 2026 draft picks who made their NHL clubs.

On this National day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada, things feel a little different. The upcoming provincial referendum, and question on separatism, is colouring conversations as communities mark the 150th anniversary of the signing of Treaty 6.

From a 400-person room to a 1,000-person room to twelve chapters in two countries, in nine years, on a formula nobody wrote down.That is the middle chapter of the GEDfest story, and this is the episode about how it actually happened. GEDfest is Gord Edgar Downie Fest. It was born in Calgary shortly after Gord Downie passed away in 2017, and it is now the largest fundraiser in his memory in the country. The jump from one hometown night to a national organization did not happen because somebody drew up a plan. It happened because people kept walking up and asking how they could help.Julie Johnson was in the audience on night one while Keith was on the drum stool, which means she saw something he could not see from up there. A woman came up to her in that tiny bar and started talking about a Canadian art gallery and all the images The Tragically Hip put into people's heads, and whether there was room for that next year. That was the first sign. There have been a lot of them since. This episode is Julie, Keith, Jaime McNichol, and Darcy McLeod trying to name the exact moment the snowball stopped needing to be pushed.WHAT ELSE IS IN HERE• Keith's confession about 'Courage'. It is not the confession you are expecting from a man who runs a Gord Downie tribute festival, and the night it changed is very specific.• Julie on the one thing you cannot do if you want to scale something like this. It is the opposite of what most organizations try.• The 2020 GEDfest. Masks, social distancing, two shows in one day, a capacity cut to the bone, and Dave Harris singing from inside a phone booth. Then the thing the host said afterward that opened the door to every chapter that followed.• Darcy on the green room at the Blind Beggar, and why beers that arrive without you asking are a bigger deal to a working band than they sound.• Jaime went to her first GEDfest in 2021 carrying something heavy, and found that a room full of people singing was the thing that helped. She says it plainly here.• Three different people give three different answers for when the tipping point was. One of them says the Palace. One says it was the moment a stranger in Kelowna described a night they had never attended, exactly.• The hip tribute band in the Netherlands who reached out, and the language barrier standing between them and a chapter.• How Neil got Edmonton, and how a guy from Manulife got Kelowna. Neither one involves a job posting.• Keith on the secret sauce, which is a two-word answer and is not the music.THE PANEL• Keith Dyck, co-founder of GEDfest and the drummer in Trickle Down, from Calgary. Reads 'the present' in "The Never Ending Present" as a double entendre, which is a level of thinking jD readily admits is above his pay grade.• Julie Johnson, founder of GEDfest, from Calgary. Keith's wife, and the one who was standing in the crowd the first night. Went way off the board with 'Fight' as her current favourite, and had a reason at the ready.• Jaime McNichol, GEDfest director, from Calgary. Julie's parents live next door, which is how she heard about a band called Trickle Down in the first place. Missed the first one because of the weather and has never quite gotten over it. Did three GEDfests last year.• Darcy McLeod of DC and The Struggle, from Calgary. Opener, after-party act, ambassador, and self-described jack of all trades. Came to The Hip through a friend in junior high who put on 'New Orleans Is Sinking' and was, in his words, the coolest cat.GEDFEST 2026GEDfest is Gord Edgar Downie Fest, and in its ninth year it runs in twelve chapters across Canada and, for the first time, in the United States. Every chapter picks a cause in its own community and raises money for it.

An 18 unit condo building bought for about $90,000 a door was later appraised at roughly $131,000 a door after being brought back together as one apartment property. That is the condo deconversion strategy Bryce Kander is focused on right now. Bryce explains how he purchased all 18 units in an Edmonton property from 17 different owners. His offers were conditional on getting all of the units, possession happened on the same day, and he arranged a blanket mortgage across the property. The opportunity came from a shift Bryce has been watching. Condo prices had dropped while rents had moved higher. He saw a chance to reverse the old strategy of converting apartments into individual condos. Bryce also talks about another way these deals can happen through the condo board and court process when there is a strong reason for the building to sell, such as a major cash call. Key topics and takeaways: Why Bryce is focused on condo deconversions How he purchased 18 units from 17 owners Why some owners accepted prices above recent individual condo sales Using conditions so the purchase only moves forward if the whole building comes together Working with condo boards and the court process How appraisals can look different using an income approach Financing the Edmonton property with private money Why Bryce expects a long hold before moving into MLI Select financing How operating expenses can affect the value per door

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' season opener, the early injury issues, previewed tonight's game, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Oilers' injury news that came out today, including Ryan Nugent-Hopkins being out for a couple of weeks and Matt Savoie being upwards of eight weeks away. Toss in the fact that Jason Dickinson also isn't ready to go, and you've got a whole lot of bad news piling up before the season has even started. Needless to say, hearing that so many key players are out of the lineup already is... less than ideal.Shifting gears, the guys turned the podcast to Tuesday's season opener against Vancouver, starting with Tristan Jarry getting the start and the newly formed line combinations after all of these injuries. While injuries can happen at any time in the NHL, it's not exactly great that all of Edmonton's plans they had for their lineup in the offseason are already being shifted around.Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk before wrapping up the podcast with a round of Baggedmilk's Trivia and score predictions ahead of the home opener. After waiting around for months to finally get going, the boys were excited about having the season get going even if it's starting with some dire news regarding 30% of the team's top six. Either way, the NHL is back and there is nothing better than the start of a fresh hockey season.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!

Canadian Property Taxes: What Real Estate Investors Are Missing Property taxes might not be the most exciting part of real estate investing, but they can completely change the performance of a rental property. In today's episode of the Canadian Real Estate Investing Morning Show, Wayne and Gabby compare residential property taxes across 20 major Canadian cities and show just how dramatically the numbers can change from one market to another. Using the same $500,000 assessed property value in every market allows for an apples-to-apples comparison. The difference between the lowest and highest cities in the comparison works out to thousands of dollars per year and hundreds of dollars every month. For a real estate investor, that's cash flow. How Property Taxes Actually Work Property taxes aren't structured exactly the same way across Canada. Depending on the province and municipality, your bill can include municipal taxes, provincial education taxes, regional authorities, transit, fire protection, waste collection, school taxes and other local levies. The terminology and assessment systems can also differ between provinces. The important lesson for investors is that looking at a property's purchase price isn't enough. You need to understand the actual assessed value, applicable tax rates and any additional charges specific to that municipality. Why Assessed Value Matters Property taxes are generally calculated using the municipality's assessed value of the property, which isn't necessarily the same as the purchase price or current market value. That distinction becomes especially important when buying a recently renovated property, adding a legal secondary suite, building a garage or completing another improvement that could increase the assessed value. If the municipality hasn't yet incorporated those improvements into the assessment, the existing tax bill may not accurately represent what you'll eventually pay. Vancouver Has the Lowest Rate in the Comparison One of the biggest surprises in today's episode is Vancouver. Using the rates discussed on the show, Vancouver had the lowest combined percentage among the 20 cities compared. On the standardized $500,000 assessed property used throughout the episode, the approximate annual property tax was $1,682, or about $140 per month. Surrey, Kelowna and Victoria were also near the low end of the comparison. Wayne discusses an important reason why percentage rates alone can be misleading. Markets with very high property values can use lower percentage rates while still generating substantial tax revenue because those percentages are being applied against much larger assessed values. Edmonton vs. Calgary Property Taxes The Edmonton-Calgary comparison was particularly interesting. Using the same $500,000 assessed property: Calgary: approximately $3,325/year Edmonton: approximately $5,182/year Difference: approximately $1,857/year That's roughly $155 per month in additional expenses for the Edmonton example. But Wayne stresses that this doesn't automatically make Calgary a better real estate investment. Purchase price, achievable rent, insurance, utilities, cash flow, tenant profile and other operating expenses all have to be considered together. A lower property-tax rate can't compensate for an investment that doesn't otherwise produce the returns you're looking for. Windsor Had the Highest Rate in the Comparison At the other end of the list was Windsor. Using the figures discussed during the episode, a $500,000 assessed property produced an estimated annual property-tax bill of approximately $10,483, or about $873 per month. Compare that with approximately $1,682 annually in Vancouver. That's a difference of roughly $8,801 per year, or about $733 every month. For a rental-property investor, an expense difference of that magnitude can completely change the economics of a deal. Why You Can't Just Compare Mill Rates This episode isn't intended to suggest that investors can simply take a city's headline tax percentage, multiply it by a purchase price and call it done. Assessment systems aren't standardized across Canada. Different jurisdictions can have separate school taxes, regional levies, parcel taxes, waste charges, borough-specific taxes and other fees. Properties can also fall into different classifications. That's why investors need to research the actual property they're considering. Wayne's 5-Step Property Tax Due-Diligence Process When analyzing a new rental property or unfamiliar market: Get the property's actual previous tax bill. Don't rely exclusively on an MLS listing or what the seller tells you. Determine whether the current assessment reflects recent renovations, additions, secondary suites or new construction. Look for separate charges including school taxes, regional levies, parcel taxes, waste fees, stormwater charges and local improvement charges. Verify the property's tax classification and whether your planned use or renovations could change it. Stress test the deal. Don't assume today's property-tax bill will remain unchanged for the next 10 or 20 years. Property Taxes and the 5% Rule This is another reason Wayne emphasizes cash flow. A property that barely works using today's expenses can quickly become a bad investment when property taxes, insurance, maintenance or other costs increase. The 5% Rule™ cash flow test is: (Annual Cash Flow ÷ Down Payment) × 100 5–6% = sufficient 7–9% = strong 10%+ = excellent Cash flow isn't simply money to spend. It's part of the financial buffer that allows an investor to absorb unexpected changes while continuing to hold the property for the long term.

Which Canadian Cities Are Most Exposed to U.S. Tariffs? Tariffs and the ongoing Canada-U.S. trade dispute are creating another layer of uncertainty for Canadian businesses, workers, landlords and real estate investors. But the impact is not going to be equal across the country. In today's episode, Wayne and Gabby look at which Canadian cities have the greatest exposure to U.S. tariffs, why certain local economies are more vulnerable than others, and what investors should be thinking about when choosing markets and building portfolios that can survive economic disruptions. The Rental Market Is Getting More Competitive Before getting into tariffs, Wayne and Gabby share an update from their own rental portfolio. A new tenant moved in early over the weekend, and Gabby explains why they were particularly happy with the tenant profile, including strong credit, good communication, insurance in place, and rent and security deposit paid ahead of time. They also discuss the changing Edmonton rental market. Tenants currently have more options in certain property categories, which means landlords may have to work harder to attract strong applicants. Wayne and Gabby currently have multiple renovation crews moving between properties, but these aren't simply renovations for the sake of improving a property. They're strategic improvements designed to make their rentals more competitive, reduce vacancy and help achieve stronger rents. When supply increases, being "good enough" may not be enough. Presentation, pricing, tenant experience and property condition become increasingly important. What Happens When a Tenant Moves In Before the Lease Starts? A live viewer asked an important landlord question: If you allow a tenant to move in before the official lease date, does that create additional liability? Gabby walks through three things landlords should consider: • Update the lease commencement date and have the appropriate parties acknowledge the change. • Make sure the tenant's insurance begins on the actual possession date. • Collect the required rent and security deposit before possession is provided. Landlords can also decide whether to charge prorated rent for the additional days. In this particular situation, Wayne and Gabby chose not to charge extra because the property was already vacant and the early possession was only a matter of days. Real Estate Investors Need to Build for the Storm One of the biggest themes of today's episode is that economic disruptions are inevitable. Oil crashes, pandemics, rapidly rising interest rates, flooding, trade disputes and other unexpected events continually test real estate investors. Wayne's argument is that investors shouldn't build portfolios that only work when everything goes right. They should buy properties with enough cash flow and financial cushion to withstand periods when things go wrong. He discusses an example of a mentorship student's property generating approximately $670 per month in cash flow. That cushion gives the investor significantly more room to absorb higher expenses, lower rents or other unexpected changes than a property operating close to break-even. Cash flow isn't spending money. It's a risk mitigator. The 5% Rule and Surviving Economic Disruptions Wayne returns to the cash flow framework from his book, The 5% Rule™: A Real Estate Cash Flow Test for Canadian Investors. The formula is: (Annual Cash Flow ÷ Down Payment) × 100 5–6% = sufficient 7–9% = strong 10%+ = excellent Wayne's position is that investors should be buying properties capable of producing meaningful cash flow without depending on appreciation. The greater the cushion, the better positioned the investor is to deal with vacancies, declining rents, higher financing costs and economic shocks. Search "The 5% Rule by Wayne Hillier" on Amazon to learn more. Which Canadian Cities Are Most Exposed to U.S. Tariffs? The episode then examines Canadian cities whose economies have particularly strong exposure to trade with the United States. The industries highlighted include: • Energy in Alberta and New Brunswick • Automotive and manufacturing in Southern Ontario • Steel in Hamilton • Aluminum, forestry and manufacturing in Quebec Saint John, New Brunswick ranked at the top of the tariff exposure index discussed during the show, followed by Calgary. Calgary's position is particularly interesting for Alberta investors. The city's economy has significant exposure to the corporate and export side of Canada's energy industry, and an enormous percentage of its international merchandise exports are destined for the United States. Southern Ontario also features prominently because of its deeply integrated manufacturing and automotive supply chains. Windsor, Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo, Brantford and Guelph were among the markets discussed. Hamilton's steel industry creates another form of exposure, while several Quebec communities face risks connected to aluminum, forestry and manufacturing. Lethbridge also appeared among the top 10, although Wayne emphasizes that simply appearing on the list doesn't mean every city faces an equivalent level of exposure. There is a substantial difference between the exposure measurements at the top and bottom of the list. Edmonton vs. Calgary For Wayne, one of the most interesting comparisons is Edmonton versus Calgary. Although both cities are part of an energy-producing province, their economic structures are different. Calgary's economy has greater direct exposure to the corporate and export side of energy. Edmonton still has significant connections to energy, manufacturing and industrial activity, but its economy also includes substantial government, healthcare, education, construction and other sectors. In the ranking discussed during the episode, Edmonton was considerably further down the list at 24th. Wayne explains why economic diversification is one of the fundamentals he considers when choosing a real estate market. No market is immune to economic shocks, but he wants to invest in large markets with strong economies and enough diversification to absorb them. That resilience is one of the reasons Wayne continues to favour Edmonton real estate investing. Don't Wait for Perfect Conditions The takeaway isn't that investors should stop buying real estate because tariffs, interest rates or economic uncertainty exist. There is always another challenge coming. Wayne and Gabby's strategy is to build portfolios that can survive those challenges through strong cash flow, adequate reserves, appropriate tenant profiles, careful market selection and disciplined buying. Waiting for perfect conditions isn't the strategy. Preparing for imperfect conditions is.

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton, were honored to welcome dementia awareness advocate Anoushka Fernandes as a guest to the show. About Anoushka Fernandes: Anoushka Fernandes (Ah-NOSH-ka) is a passionate dementia awareness advocate from Edmonton, Canada, whose personal caregiving journey inspired her to help other families navigating dementia, caregiving, and loss. In 2023, Anoushka made the decision to leave the full-time corporate workforce and start her own business, allowing her more time to support her father as he cared for her mother, Allison. For the final three years of her life, Allison lived with cognitive decline and major neurocognitive disorder, a type of dementia. Anoushka experienced firsthand the changes, uncertainty, and challenges that can affect not only the person living with dementia, but the entire family surrounding them. Following Allison's death, Anoushka transformed her family's experience into a mission to support others. In October 2025, she launched TheSoggySandwich.ca, a website and blog created for dementia caregivers and those who have experienced dementia-related loss. Through her advocacy, community outreach, writing, and public speaking, Anoushka is especially passionate about helping break down the stigma surrounding dementia, including within racialized communities. She encourages families who notice changes in memory, behavior, or cognition to seek formal medical evaluation rather than allowing fear or stigma to delay conversations about dementia. Her advocacy also emphasizes the importance of accessing available treatments, interventions, education, and support as early as possible to help improve quality of life for individuals living with dementia and those who care for them. About The Soggy Sandwich: The Soggy Sandwich is a deeply personal dementia caregiving and grief resource created by Anoushka Fernandes following her family's caregiving journey and the death of her mother, Allison. Through weekly writing, Anoushka follows two interconnected storylines. The first reflects on her family's caregiving journey, beginning with the earliest memory and behavioral changes they noticed in Allison and continuing through the realities of caring for someone living with dementia. The second chronicles Anoushka's own experience navigating grief following her mother's sudden and unexpected death. By sharing these experiences openly, Anoushka hopes to provide caregivers and grieving families with something that can sometimes be difficult to find during these journeys: the knowledge that someone else understands. The Soggy Sandwich also serves as a platform for dementia awareness, caregiver education, community outreach, and conversations aimed at reducing stigma and encouraging families to seek information, support, and medical guidance earlier in the dementia journey.
