The son of Oro-Medonte mayoral candidate, Cathy Keane, is among the injured in Saturday’s major fire at CFB Wainwright, southeast of Edmonton.
Keane shared the following on social media, “Overnight, our family received the devastating news that our eldest son is among the military personnel critically injured in the incident in Wainwright, Alberta, on Saturday…Right now, I ask for your understanding as our family navigates an incredibly difficult and uncertain time. We are grateful for the kindness and support of our friends and community.”
Keane is en route to Alberta to be with her son and family.
While her door-to-door campaigning for the mayor’s job in Oro-Medonte has been suspended, she says she remains committed seeking the post in the October 26 municipal election.
