Seeing sunflowers through the snow — The latest on APN — Feb. 26-March 4

As March roared in to greet the world with numerous harsh realities, we find ourselves humming the anthem of a far away place, hoping for peace and gathering sunflower seeds in solidarity. It's no big secret that Alberta is home to thousands of people of Ukrainian descent, so we're all keeping a close eye on our друзів (friends), and sending support however we can. 

Here's hoping that the end of the month will go out like a sweet, fuzzy lamb. 'Til then,  APN's  newest episodes are queued up just for you — we recommend saving on gas and going out on foot to appreciate this weekend's sunny skies.
