Brian Pallister is the 1st Canadian leader forced out of power due to perpetrating racist, divisive & factually incorrect views on Indigenous peoples & history. Normally Canada makes statues & names buildings after people like this. Note what’s happening on the prairies right now – at Winnipeg, Manitoba

Time for @CliffCullenMLA to declare Bill 64 dead now that he is supporting @MLAStefanson in her leadership bid. #mbed. Please retweet and let Cliff know that is the right course of action.

I think Chris P. Champion - right-wing denialist behind Dorchester Review and best bud of Jason Kenney deeply involved in the ideological curriculum review etc. - should now be referred to as Crispy Champion, because he’s toast.

Today would be a good day for members of the @PCcaucus to join @MartinforMLA in publicly announcing they will not support Bill 64 and that merely amending it is not sufficient. All MLAs, of all stripes, should pledge to support public education and support local decision making.

With vaccine SO CLOSE for kids, doing everything to keep them safe in school come September makes all kinds of sense. That means masking every child.
We wouldn't EVER take their seat belts off 3/4s of the way through the road trip. This ain't one bit different.

Premier Pallister: as an historian, I understood clearly what you said, that colonialism is about building rather than destroying (which is factually incorrect). So, the issue remains what *you* said, not our understanding. Nice try though.

Manitoba is recommending anyone aged 12-17 to get their first vaccine dose by July 27 so they can be fully immunized in time for school to start in September.
They would be eligible for a second dose on Aug. 24, which means they would be considered fully vaccinated by Sept. 7.

As July fades, @CliffCullenMLA is spending $$ on Bill 64 & not uttering a peep about planning a safe start in Sept, while other provs share full plans. @MLAStefanson isn’t avail for @PattyHajdu to talk about the health of our kids. People of all stripes are sick of it. Terrible.

Registration is an easy phone call. I wonder what the @PCcaucus government will do when it's going to take so much time to get through the speaker's list. Will they cut it off? Will they allow democracy to run its course? #CdnPoli #MbPoli #SlamTheDoorOn64 #LocalVoicesLocalChoices
500 so far! 😊 At least 75 days left to register. Already registered? Great! Know someone who should speak to this bill? Don’t assume they’re registered. Get in touch with them and make sure. Visit localvoices.ca for all the info needed to register. @MBSchoolBoards

PCs stated goal of #Bill64 is to improve educational outcomes for kids. There's 0 in the bill that will accomplish that and no one wants it. But they did spend $150k to promote it, $ that could have been used to run a breakfast program that actually would have improved outcomes🤦

Billboards and ads aren’t arguments. @CliffCullenMLA is this far unable to explain *how* Bill 64 will lead to improvements for students, dodging questions at town halls & often saying it’s a 5 year process to figure it out. #MbPoli 1/2 winnipegfreepress.com/local/…

Going to mention one other thing. Better air quality and lower class sizes help with academic and cognitive scores AND covid. Yet mb does not have plans for either. Of course they’re not about improving education outcomes. 👎🏽

Last year, my eldest was in the last class of @interlakesd’s Jr K program, which was free for the hundreds of 4 yr olds in our community to get ready for Kinder. We were forced to cut it this year due to @CliffCullenMLA’s absurd funding cuts. Another scary preview of Bill 64.
Today, my youngest graduated from an amazing literacy development program offered through @SJASDivision (Literacy Links) which will help her to succeed in kindergarten.
This is the type of locally created, high quality programming we can expect to lose in St. James post Bill 64.
