Please note the following:
* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.
* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.
* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ottawa had its hottest day of the year Tuesday, with Wednesday potentially even more blistering under this end-of-spring heat wave.
Another part of the Environment Canada heat warnings that have been in place since Sunday is the sweltering nights: Ottawa, for example, has a forecasted overnight low of 23 feeling only as "cool" as 32.
These include older adults, infants and young children, pregnant people and those with physical or mental health conditions.
Ottawa Public Health offers an interactive map of places to stay cool throughout the city, including pools, libraries, splash pads and community centres, plus fountains.
Everyone is being asked to avoid exercising during peak heat times, staying inside where possible — especially in spaces that are being cooled — and drinking plenty of fluids.
Thursday, the first day of summer, is expected to feel more like Monday than Tuesday and Wednesday with its forecasted highs ranging from 28 to 31 C in local hubs.
