Happy 2021! 

‍
Welcome to 2021! 2020 was an interesting year, to say the least, with the COVID-19 pandemic changing our daily lives significantly. Many people have lost their jobs and businesses, students had to adjust to online learning, and many of us had to stay at home to be safe and healthy. But the worst part, of course, was that more than 115,000 Albertans were infected, and more than 1,400 have lost their lives, due to the virus. 

The Mill Woods Mosaic was also affected. The paper hasn’t been printed since April but continues to be published online. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all advertisers and readers for continuing to  support our multicultural community newspaper. It is very much appreciated. 

The good news is that there is light at the end of the tunnel now since the  vaccinations have started. We still have to be patient, because it will take time until all Canadians will get their shots. There are some delays, but we should not complain, because we are lucky to have one of the best health care systems in the world. 

I wish all of you the very best in 2021 and would be happy to receive your feedback. Please e-mail me: mwmosaic@telus.net. 

Stay safe and healthy!
