The Tiwana family has been running a motel in Bashaw, Alberta for decades. On October 12, racial slurs were found on their hotel and the hotel was burned to the ground in a suspicious fire. One person is dead and three are injured. In a matter of minutes the Tiwana family lost everything — their home, their business, their belongings and unconfirmed reports say that the person who died is the father of the Tiwana household.
A GoFundMe page has been set up to collect donations for the family while the local fire department in Bashaw is accepting donations of food and money as well.
