"“Soup Nazi” actor Larry Thomas will be picking up his ladle in a British Columbia restaurant to raise money for victims of last month’s attack on Vancouver’s Lapu Lapu Day festival.
Thomas, who is best known for his guest role as a strict soup seller on the sitcom Seinfeld, says he’ll be serving at the Greens And Beans Deli in New Westminster, B.C., on Sunday.
He says the April 26 attack that killed 11 people was a 'terrible thing,' prompting him to reprise his fundraising relationship with the restaurant that stretches back more than 20 years.
Los Angeles-based Thomas first served at Greens And Beans at a fundraiser for the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, and has also served to help other causes, including wildfire relief in Canada."

If you're looking for a concrete way to give support to the Filipino community in BC during this time of grief, I found that Filipino BC accepts donations. You can find their vision and mission on their home page. #canada #lapulapu https://filipinobc.com/

PM Mark Carney, leader of the Liberal Party of Canada, on April 27th tragedy at the #lapulapu festival in Vancouver:
(via The Guardian)"The strength and resilience of the Filipino community is highlighted by the term 'bayanihan', a tradition of helping out your neighbour in a spirit of civic mindedness."
"We will comfort the grieving, we will care for each other, we will unit in common purpose."

It’s the final day of the Canadian election #elxn45. It was already the most consequential and unique election in decades.
Now we are dealing with a mass casualty, likely racist, act. These two things have never happened together in Canadian history that I know of.
I hate this timeline so much. I just want people to love each other and be kind.
😢
I hope people vote for kindness tomorrow.
Not hate, not revenge, not fear.

The person waited for them to open the street.
“crews lifted a barricade that had been blocking traffic to allow a vehicle to enter. While some cars were being guided carefully through the crowds, Pangilinan said one car suddenly plowed through the street.”
The #NDP leader Jagmeet Singh had just left minutes before. He was the only party leader in B.C. at the time.
King Charles and the President of the Philippines have expressed their shock.
