📣 Calling all Hamiltonians! Do you have a “soot story”? If so, we want to hear it!
Maybe you've wiped black soot off your windowsills, found it on your kids' hands or your pet's paws, noticed it on laundry left out to dry — or tasted it in the air on a morning walk.
📍 This Sunday, June 7, from 10–4, we'll be at Open Streets Hamilton at the Bernie Morelli Hub — collecting stories from Hamiltonians about their experiences with black soot in the city and pinning them to a community map.
Stop by, share your experience in 1–2 sentences, and see how your story connects to your neighbours'.
Together, we're building a real picture of how Hamilton's air quality is affecting people's homes, health and daily lives — and using those stories to push for change.
Come say hello. We can't wait to hear from you.
