A Tornado Hit

[@ahtoews]

Currah thanks for being farmers...who grow the food so that all can survive. Appreciate what you do.

[@craigdavidson6860]

Great to see all the neighbours pitching in to help like true western folk. Materials can be replaced lives cannot, so a big blessing there.

[@ensk1051]

Being a former Farmboy I take great appreciation for what Quick Dick did on his video for you. We see a lot of devastation like that down here in the US and does me proud to see your neighbors helping you out. God bless you and that none of you were hurt. Possessions can be replaced but lives cannot. Good luck with getting everything back to how you want it. Your friend from South of the Border

[@scottbierbrauer5452]

Glad that no one was hurt. Neighbors helping neighbors on time of need. What farmers are all about!

[@russphillips835]

From Oklahoma tornado alley, sorry for your loss. Thank God for good neighbors 🙏. Good neighbors are worth more than insurance or the government. Truly priceless

[@travelteam12345]

Every thing can be replaced, but lives cannot. Someone was watching over you all.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@ronphillips1437]

Glad no one was hurt and good to see neighbors helping each other out

[@etcowwith-et3350]

It’s making me cry in happiness that all y’all pulled together to help your neighbor. What an outstanding endorsement for small town livin’. 💗

[@digger420]

I am so proud to see Canadians being Canadians, and helping each other. I'm praying for the family, and town. QD has a great sense of humour, but you can see his heart is as big as blue ball :) God bless you all, from BC!

[@frankmcgachy1657]

A big thanks for feeding us! Nice to see neighbour's helping neighbour's, never a question when there's farmers involved. Thankful nobody hurt.

[@ontariogs4445]

Our thoughts are with those who have suffered such losses. Absolutely wonderful the way the community has pitched in to support and help all those.

[@davidkimmel4216]

All can be replaced. Wonderful that no person was injured. Our family was hit by a tornado in March of 1965. Flat tires were the name of the game. God Bless All your family and neighbors that help you through this process. We lost our home and 4 large barns plus several head of cattle and hogs. Believe me that without our friends and neighbors we would never got through it. 🙏

[@leifandersen6866]

Wow. I had no idea. So grateful to see how the farming community rallies around you and yours! Thanks to all who are helping out any way they can. This is what community is all about. Helping out families in need.

[@brianfitzpatrick4437]

Thoughts and love from Michigan, there is nothing like the farmer spirit and all of you epitomize this!!

[@doxieowner2571]

I'm 3000 miles away, but I was born and raised in SK. My thoughts are with this kind couple, and all the wonderful people who helped them out. Hang in there! No one was hurt, and that's what really matters! God Bless! 🍁

[@MsKalamity]

Prayers and well wishes from the U.S. Farmers are the backbone of every country♥

[@Haggus5]

The farming community is amazing when it comes to helping each other out during and after a hardship!! Years ago my father lost a large hog barn and shop due to fire. The next morning the community men showed up with sons and equipment to clean up and the women showed up with daughters and food to feed everyone. I hope the insurance company is kind to you and for a speedy re-build!! God bless!!

[@boatnut64]

I'm So Sorry to see what you're going through, but Thank God Everyone is Safe... Thank You for the Hard Work You do, to put food on the plates of Our Nation... I know you will Persevere, 'Cuz that's what Saskatchewan Farmers Do... 💪💪💪❤❤❤💪💪💪 Our Hearts and Prayers are with You...❤❤❤

[@lenwiller6387]

Godspeed to everyone affected. Great to see the Saskatchewan community coming together to help !

[@TimDyck]

Glad no one was hurt. The yard can be rebuilt and bins replaced but people can never be replaced. Let’s take a second to thank God that everyone is OK.

[@MrsRoy-fm3sh]

Rural Saskatchewan is all one big small town. Thank you to everyone helping out. God Bless you all. This right here, this community spirit is why I love small towns on the prairies. ❤

[@Pam_Doddridge]

Wow, Mother Nature really is a force. So sorry this happened, great to see the neighbor support, farmers are the best.

[@chaddsenst3194]

As a tornado victim myself, I just want to let you know that it will get better and things will get put back together. Glad to hear that no one was hurt or injured in the path of the tornado

[@patrickphelan3676]

Two things in this world that you can't fight ... unpredictable weather & unpredictable government. With you all in spirit, from rural Nova Scotia.

[@tomboustead7588]

I’m grateful that no one was hurt and the house had minimal damage. I love how the neighbors stepped up to help out

[@donkrusenklaus]

QDM, You are the man! You exemplify everything that a true patriot to their country should be, god bless you and those folks hit by the twirly thing!

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Big freaking mess... Takes a lot of hands to clean up and get everything put back together... Good people help in bad situations. Thank you for the update QDM!! Stay safe and avoid the spinning clouds!!

[@CarnivorePhil]

Big props to all the helpers for getting involved in the cleanup and support of the farm. I’m happy nobody was hurt and I’m sending my best wishes. Cheers

[@bootshockley2072]

I wish there was more that I could do than leaving a like and this comment to get the word out. To the Currah's, Good luck on rebuilding and the clean up. our hearts are with you.

[@fbh31118]

Holy $##t!!! More destruction on the Prarie. So glad you and your family are safe and no else was hurt! Your farming friends in the US are praying for strength and encouragement guys.

[@mountainviewcattle]

It's so sad to see all the damage to such a beautiful farm, but heartening to see everyone pulling together and happy to hear that the damage to the actual house wasn't too catastrophic. Wishing you all the best for the clean up operation. Big supportive hug from BC. I'm also struck by the fact that even after a Tornado has ripped through, Saskatchewan still manages to look stunningly beautiful.

[@colleenmyers2039]

Glad there were no injuries! Prairie proud, Prairie tough, Prairie nieghbours are priceless ❤️

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Prayers for the insurance company to be swift and efficient in the rebuild!! And that everyone is safe!!

[@dunkaknee]

Farmers are the most resilient people in Canada. The challenges and adversities are numerous and yet year after year they start again. Truly the back bone of Canada! So glad nobody was seriously injured!

[@zawadafarms7402]

Thoughts and prayers from a small farming community in Upper Michigan. Just do what farmers always do, brush yourselves off and keep working hard and thank God for no injuries and the wonderful rain that must have come with the storm!👍🇺🇸🇨🇦👍

[@SBoots29]

The resilience and strength of the Saskatchewan farmer is what makes this a proud country to be part of. Mother Nature can be destructive and sad to see the damage. Thank God no lives were lost. Press on Currah family. You have many people to support you. QDM, you are a good man.

[@marializak9851]

The support from the community for this family shows us the best of Canada. Thanks for being there for each other!

[@Engineer284]

Wow. I saw the news reports but they didn’t show as much as this Quick video. Good luck getting it all back together. Happy no one was hurt including your home. 🇨🇦❤️

[@rnbchick76]

Thank goodness everybody is OK; structures can be replaced, lives cannot. You’ve got the most compassionate, supportive people in the Foam Lake area… God bless you all 🙏🥰🙏

[@michellecurtale8240]

my name is Spencer. I live in the midwest in farm country. We've had many tornadoes, including one that severely damaged our town and my friends pole barn and house. Its scary and sad, but the beauty in it is that it brings neighbors and communities together. We will be praying for you guys, God bless.

[@themostlymikeshow]

I was so relieved to hear that nobody got hurt and that you all are in good spirits. You're lucky to have a heckler like Quick Dick living next door to cheer you up. I'm sure that he's a blast to drink a few locally brewed beers with. These tough times don't last... TOUGH PEOPLE DO! 💪 Hang in there!

[@cobrellie]

👍👍👍

[@marilynk1653]

Neighbour's helping each other is a golden rule to live by. Evidently this golden rule IS active as it should be.💝 Thankful no one was hurt. Sending love to families affected from rural Perth Ontario.🤗💕

[@MortskeRepair]

I’m glad everyone is ok. Keep your chin up!!

[@c.thompson9771]

So much Grace to ALL who suffered this power of nature. Faith will always prevail and serve others very well indeed. 💝

[@Jundt22]

I am watching this heartbreak from Southern California. To the Currah family, please stay strong and it is so good to see your local community coming to support you 🇨🇦🇺🇸

[@lyndabecker9609]

This is what Canadians do for each other we help no matter what . Bless you all

[@PBoettger]

Much respect to you all. I'm glad nobody was hurt and your home and family were safe. Best of luck and wishes from Rual Ontario.

[@BruceBlackwell66]

QDM great job on the video. To the farm families thankful that all were unhurt. Speedy recovery to your storage facilities

[@packradtpackradt4581]

I lost my house, the one I grew up in, two years ago to a tornado that plowed a sixty mile swath through my state. Killed five people, did one and a half billion dollars worth of damage. You stay strong. I'm glad that everyone on your farm was OK.

[@dawnwheeler432]

Us Canadians are with you all of us ...more family's and people need to help our canadian friends and family and stand together

[@mattblanc930]

There’s no question that if it happened to a different neighbour, Rob and Janina would be there front row centre helping them out. It’s what we do in rural Saskatchewan. Relieving no one was hurt and good luck with the bin crop everyone!

[@glen1arthur]

Very sorry for your losses…..my wife is a RN and I am a SCA so we work shift work one weekend our children were staying at their grandparents and I was on days my wife was on nights and I was on days when I get a call that my house is on fire I rushed home and while running towards my house my brother blocks my way and tells me my wife is already out sitting in the ambulance getting O2 they kept her overnight. As far as I am concerned the only that matters is life….things are just things even those keepsakes. I am very happy that there was no lost of life or injuries.

[@shanevids4644]

When I heard Foam Lake the night it happened I was immediately worried about QDM and his family and that’s because through his great work here, he’s like that second cousin twice removed we all wished we had. Seriously though, it’s great to hear nobody was hurt and that community still knows how to pull together in times of need and tragedy….we all know the saying “things can be replaced, people can’t” and that farm will live on another day!

[@thebells1201]

All can be replaced, being the core of the country these farmers will be back on there feet before you know it! Family all you need, great work on stepping up QD!

[@vickyjohnson1121]

How devastating. Any loss in farming is hard to digest, however this is a different degree. Stay strong. You are in many peoples thoughts.

[@evanwatson8470]

Praise God no one was hurt. It’s good to see neighbors pulling together to help the Currah’s. We are thinking of you and praying for you here in Kentucky.

[@michaelw1412]

Nice to see neighbours helping one another. Its once was like that here on the wet coast. I miss those days. None the less, im thinking of you guys and this will be a distant memory soon enough. Take care🙂

[@Shadow123276]

The finger of God. Hope everything works out for you folks. Things can be replaced people cannot. Glad to see no one was hurt. Glad to see your dog made it too

[@andyfunke9484]

Hey Quick, mighty generous of to volunteer to help your neighbours. The Currah's are definitely fortunate that it was material damage, and that their home and they stayed fairely unscathed. Keep us updated if they need additional support. I could think of nothing better than to support the hard working farm families of this country. Take care stay safe. And it sure doesn't look like those grain bins ended up in Oz. Cheers. 👋🇨🇦

[@87jstep]

Oh wow I’m glad y’all are still alive. Good to see neighbors helping.

[@daviduprichard4591]

Greetings from Northern Ireland. Thanks for sharing Quick Dick. Hard to beat a rural farming community for helping neighbours in times of need. Glad no one was hurt.

[@marjoriefortney1136]

So thankful none of your family was hurt. Keep smiling in spite of this terrible experience.

[@waynedub1167]

Gives me the sads seeing this. Oh so glad everyone was safe.

[@ronaldmarion269]

Thanks!

[@QuickDickMcDick]

Thanks so much my friend! QDM

[@cameronwinters5072]

You have to have sewn a lot of love in your community to receive so much in return. Good things come to good people. Hang in there, better times are just around the corner.

[@chantalrochon3566]

Be resilient, be positive for you are not alone. You have an amazing community 🌻❤️🍁🌻

[@cherylpayne3866]

Glad to hear no one was hurt! Amazing community support, everyone has set a great example of what it means to be a neighbor! Sending well wishes for a speedy rebuild to everyone affected by the damage 😀

[@glbaker5595]

You good people are blessed to have neighbors and family that are willing to help you and when they say they will help they are sincere about it, I pray my prayers will somehow strengthen and help him through this process

[@kenandrew4370]

Sorry for loss of equipment and damages! Amazing how positive you are after this. Gods gift to us is our farmers! Stay strong! Quick you rock and the joke about CBC was spot on........

[@sandibennett1248]

Just sending a quick note from Lenore MB. Seeing the bin yard damage is unreally. So glade everyone is safe. Nothing is stronger than family and friends when thingsxlike this happen.

[@kellygray8595]

I'm so glad no one was hurt, physically. We had 3 tornadoes through our yard in the 90s. It's expensive, but sounds like you have great neighbours, and that's more precious than any money.

[@chrisdunn5312]

Thanks be to God everyone is safe. Good neighbours are precious. Material things can be replaced. Here's hoping the repairs happen quickly and you continue to feed the population for many years.

[@farmingwithfamily8717]

It’s always refreshing to see a farming community come together to help out neighbors in need. Hang in there and keep on feeding the world.

[@HulkStillGotIt]

I know I'm late but I just found this. Love from America. Praying that everything will be get back to normal very soon. I'm so glad that no one was hurt.

[@jaguar_af_outside]

I love this!!!!! The whole reason I post on social media is to try and make some one smile or take their attention off of negativity. #positivity thanks for the time you put into these videos….. and I hope the people in the video continue to receive blessings

[@johnkennett617]

Q D does more for Canadian unity than our government will ever do. Thank you for helping your neighbours and clearing the wounds of separation. You truly are a Canadian hero

[@johnviney7919]

Thanks for the update QD!! So glad no one was injured in this. Lots of repairs to do, but that will happen with help from the community. Stay positive Currah Family!! God Bless!! 👍

[@lesmathisen1703]

I'm so glad no one was hurt. That was the best video of the damage caused by a tornado I've ever seen. Kudos to Quick Dick's videography. CBC and CTV need to take notes.

[@RockinRobbiesRoadhouse]

Glad to see everyone pitching in! I’d be there helping if I wasn’t a couple hours away! God bless- hopefully you can rebuild and never have to go thru that again!!

[@roymeyer3004]

Hi Roy here a Canadian living in Hollywood California. I thought it was about time to check in again with Rob and Janina Currah to see how you are getting on. It's Sunday morning December 4th and that tornado hit back on July 4th so I sincerely hope you have been able to recover your losses from that unfortunate extreme weather phenomenon. Seeing from the eye of the camera QDM style and his telling of the debris from your grain bins and so forth strewn over over 2 miles. I certainly feel sort of breathless in a way that is reverent and the mighty power of Mother Nature it gives us all a sense of how small and fragile all of us are. I just wanted to wish you strength and courage. By the grace of God people living in a rural community have the benefit of solid neighbours who all support each other in any way they can even with kind words helps to build our inner strength. I can offer kind words of support that is something the least of what decency shows each of us to do in times of need. I have numerous relatives that have farmed all their lives and I know from my younger years building forage silos in Ontario. I wish you tidings of good will and may God bless your souls and I hope you have a wonderful time through the holidays and Holy days. I realize where you are there is lots of snow. I saw a photo from Moosejaw and my brother lives outside of Calgary AB. All the best to you.

[@Prariehealing]

Warms my heart to see neighbors pitching in to help clean up. So glad everyone is ok. Hopefully insurance and the community will help you through.

[@chaseneufeld3406]

Always amazed at the perseverance of the hardest working, most ragged on people group (farmers) in Canada. When the going gets tough… you put your head down and work just a bit harder!

[@treyinok]

I wish I was close enough to help... As someone who's spent my whole life in tornado alley, I'm keenly aware of how destructive they can be. Friends, relatives, and neighbors are critical to helping those affected get back on their feet. By the looks of it, you have some terrific folks around you to help. Prayers for a speedy recovery!

[@timdibden8399]

Saw this three weeks too late , we have no idea in the England how devastating a Tornado can be . I’m too far away to have helped , what I can say is if we were neighbours I would be there giving you a hand up . Miracle no one was hurt . Best wishes from England .

[@truenorthpedals4528]

Hey QDM, thanks for doing this, and to the Currah’s, from one Sk resident to another, we are here for you. I may not be a neighbour able to pop over to help cleanup, but we are here to support you and the community in any way we can. Take care.

[@Rango0n22]

Western farm communities are the best for support and coming together in times of need. Thoughts, prayers, and crossed fingers for those affected by the “finger of God”. Good luck to you all, and hang in there…

[@luckyfalkor7399]

Amazing the house was largely untouched considering the rest of the yard. Best wishes on recovery. Good luck with everything.

[@jimmacdonald9746]

It so amazing the power of Mother Nature , and super amazing no one got hurt . Love from Northern Ireland 🇬🇧

[@frostyfoot]

I'm so glad no one was hurt. I can't imagine how scared everyone was....take care

[@chrismarlatt6518]

Even though you suffered severe damage to your farm you did not suffer the severe loss of family. Items can be replaced family can't !!! I hope everything favours well for you it's unbelievable the power and strength mother nature can have on our lives. To quick dick that was an awesome video thanks as always.

[@orlandopokey03]

As someone who grew up in SK and moved away when I was 16, the flatlands will always be my home and my heart truly goes out to those that have fallen victim during this event! You will not find another sense of community as much as you can in small town Saskatchewan and this goes to show how strong those small town bonds can be! To the Currah's, I wish you all the best in your recovery and rebuild and I hope the insurance company does not take too long in reaching a settlement for you! Come back stronger. Come back better! Best Regards, ~Eden~

[@pixels303at-odysee9]

Nobody can mandate common sense and good will.

[@margeruthven3439]

Wow. Sorry your farm was hit. Wonderful to see the community come together and help. God bless all farmers and ranchers. Without you, we city folk would go hungry.

[@sawsurgeon]

Rob and Janina, it is so awesome to see your smiling faces and to hear that so many in the community are stepping up to lend a hand. That's what I love about our rural farming community as well. You are blessed to have characters like Quick and BMA in your midst and I'm sure they're blessed by you all as well. Prayers for Peace, Safety and Restoration. Bless'ns from The South of Michigan, Tedd

[@moosetallone2]

Great that no one was injured keep your head up and keep farming thoughts and prayers 🙏🏼 for you and your family

[@doublexrc]

No matter how hard life gets and the obstacles we over come remember that friends and family will always be there when we need them most. Let them help! Good luck with rebuilding, I’m sure your farm will be back better than ever. Thank you for your hard work, from my lazy spot in Ontario and some of appreciate you farmers out west!

[@donmcconnery5080]

The power of mother nature is incredible. Thanks for posting this QDM

[@regfazekas1654]

I'm pleased everyone is okay. This is from Windsor Ontario. My father's family is from the Stockholm / Esterhazy area originally. Many of the family still resides in Sk. and some still farming. You are in our prayers.

[@mastiffsrme]

I know you will all be ok because you are Saskatchewan tuff and you live in one of the last places where community still counts- and people care about and help their neighbors. Wishing you the best.

[@mdouglaswray]

My dad was a farmer in PA when he was young, so I got lots of family still in the industry. It's hard and nature rarely helps! Good luck and be careful cleaning up! Great to see your neighbors helping out!

[@richardthorpe8889]

Hey guys, completely speechless, to have your lives flipped around like you have, with no notice at all. Don’t know what to say except to stand fast, this will pass. God bless.
