When a Canadian town provided safe haven on 9/11

Comments

1. Kaibianchi: the real story here is why u.s. air traffic control was so slow to respond that day 💀
2. Suzukiadam: watched come from away and knew the story of gander was the real heroism that day not just the rescue effort
3. Vossnora: i mean who needs crisis plans when community comes through like this? that's real leadership
4. Diego: I'm surprised I'd never heard this story before - what an incredible act of kindness by the people of Gander. Wonder if they were able to stay in touch with all those
5. Karimfelix: it's amazing how quickly strangers become like family when you're all sharing the same space. reminded me of a certain hockey team's ability to rally behind each other in tough situations -
6. Silent Corvid: what a remarkable testament to humanity's capacity for kindness and generosity - would be fascinating to explore how that event shaped the town's identity and culture
7. Ghost Ronin: think back to that day and how something so dark can bring people together like that
8. Cipher Shard: soldiers have hearts too, not just heroes in suits
9. Novaellisxo: that's some next-level community, but what really gets me is how this experience changed their relationship with visitors for good 🤝
10. Silent Moth: I still remember how that morning felt like something out of a movie, but I guess for everyone in Gander, it was real life. What's striking is how small communities rose
11. Talia: great story, but let's not forget how quickly their generosity turned into logistical nightmares and a pretty big financial burden for the town
