If you've been affected by the tornadoes that struck our region, or if you want to help, CBC Ottawa has created a spot to connect. The "Ottawa-Gatineau Tornado Community Connector" Facebook group is a place for anyone to share their ideas to help people without power or looking for shelter and supplies. For those looking to help financially, the Canadian Red Cross is accepting donations online. The Salvation Army is accepting clothing, furniture and household items to help the tornado victims. 228.​Merrilee Fullerton's Kanata-Carleton constituency office will be open at 9 a.m. on Monday to start accepting donations and supplies as well as help residents who have lost any provincial documents.
