Here are organizations offering free activities for wildfire evacuees in Winnipeg

Amid uncertainty around how long people will be displaced by wildfires in Manitoba, some organizations in Winnipeg are offering free entertainment for evacuees. That's good news for some trying to find ways to pass time while they're out of their homes, like Maximus Ross, an evacuee from Pimicikamak Cree Nation who's been in Winnipeg, about 530 kilometres south of his home community, for over a week. "All we do is stand around here when there's nothing to do," said Ross. "I just sleep, go on my phone." Kevin Hunter, a vice-president with the YMCA of Winnipeg, said his organization is among those trying to help give evacuees something to do in the city. The YMCA is offering free admission for evacuees at its four Winnipeg community hubs. Those locations include pools, recreation facilities, fitness areas and gymnasiums for all ages. Hours of operation and other information for those locations can be found here. "[We] hope we can help as many people as we can," said Hunter. If possible, those going to the YMCA should bring photo identification with them, he said, but "we understand that things are happening fast, so if that's not available that's OK." A Red Cross registration card or other form of identification could be used as well. Hunter said the YMCA is also working with other community groups to receive donations of things like swimsuits and towels that evacuees can use on-site. He added that residents can drop off donations of essential supplies at the YMCA community hubs. As of Thursday, more than 18,000 evacuees have registered with the Red Cross, the province said in a fire bulletin earlier this week, with 28 active wildfires burning in the province as of Friday. The province also said as of Friday, eligible evacuees can apply for support through its wildfire incidental support program. To qualify, evacuees must be permanent Manitoba residents, have a primary residence in a community or First Nation with a mandatory evacuation, and be registered with the Canadian Red Cross, which can be done online or by calling 1-800-863-6582 (toll-free) between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. Manitobans evacuated under a mandatory order are eligible to receive $34 per day for everyone age 13 and older and $27 per day for children 12 and under. More information about the support program can be found on the province's website. The Winnipeg Art Gallery-Qaumajuq is also opening its doors to offer evacuees "a little bit of a reprieve and some creative inspiration … [and the opportunity] to get out and think about anything else," said Katryna Barske, public relations officer with the gallery. Barske said identification is not required, and those coming to the downtown gallery can simply tell the front desk they are an evacuee to get free admission. That offer will stand indefinitely, Barske added. The gallery, located at 300 Memorial Blvd., is open Wednesday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Canadian Museum for Human Rights is also offering free admission for evacuees. Visitors should bring proof of address and alert the box office on arrival. The museum, at 85 Israel Asper Way at The Forks, is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Assiniboine Park and Zoo also donated several passes for evacuated families, but the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs said in a social media post all of those passes have been claimed. It said if more passes become available, it will post that information.

Man dead, woman injured after possibly inhaling pool chemical fumes in Blainville

A man is dead and a woman is in hospital after potentially having inhaled fumes from their backyard swimming pool in a suburb on Montreal's North Shore. Thérèse-De Blainville police (RIPTB) say neighbours called 911 around 10 p.m. Friday about two people experiencing health problems. Police and paramedics were dispatched to the residence on Carré Hotte Street, where they found the two unconscious by the empty pool. Officers noticed that chemicals used to repair the pool lining could have caused the medical emergency, according to chief inspector Karine Desaulniers. First responders tried to resuscitate both people who were then brought to hospital. The man, 48, was declared dead about an hour later, around 11:30 p.m. The woman, 50, is in stable condition. Some officers were also affected by the chemical fumes and were briefly treated in hospital before being released. Neighbouring residences were evacuated as a precaution. Residents have all returned home as of Saturday morning. The file has been transferred to the coroner's office and the investigation is ongoing. They have yet to determine which chemical products caused the death. Police say there is no suspicion of criminal activity.
