Zarqa will be in the Library Theatre tonight at 7pm for an Author Talk. Sad she has to see one of our historic buildings burning while she's visiting our great city. #medhat #yxh #medicinehat
Just arrived in Medicine Hat for a book talk at @MHPublicLibrary and found ‘the Royal’ burning down. It’s a venerable institution where many Alberta bands got their first break. It was built in 1904.
