Abbotsford florist recovers after facing backlash in case of mistaken identity linked to U.S. Election
ABBOTSFORD – After receiving a flood of negative messages, the owner of a small Abbotsford flower shop took to social media on Thursday to clear the air in a case of mistaken identity.
Keri McKinley, owner of Everbloom Designs on McCallum Road, says she has spent the week in damage control, dealing with criticism and even threats directed at another retailer in the United States with a nearly identical name, criticized for its political views.
“We’ve been flooded with emails, social media messages, and comments accusing us of discrimination,” she said on Instagram.
“I am NOT the owner of the shop in the United States that has gone public with political views.”
