The sleeves, also made of plastic, were attached to the large tarp using adhesive tape, allowing two people to hug each other without direct contact. “It was really a team effort to try to determine the size and height of the sleeves. We worked on it until dawn on Saturday evening and it was ready for Mother's Day on Sunday, ”continues Carolyn Ellis. “It was a great gift. "

The video filmed for the occasion, then shared on social networks, quickly went viral. “It was surprising, it shocked us to see how quickly it went viral. We were delighted that other people were able to benefit from our hug. We loved it, ”concludes the Canadian.
