Read this. It makes me sick that she has been treated this way and even sicker to know how common it is. Too many politicians and leaders have stoked this rage and it has to stop. It begins with each of us showing decency, respect, kindness, and support.

1/I have been asked by some people why I haven’t made a public statement about the assault on our Deputy Prime Minister. To be blunt, I had to sit with my thoughts for a couple of days. Because this incident is not isolated & it brings up too much pain. And fear. Yes, fear.

Thank you Sunil. The treatment and misinformation has been horrific. But I will continue to stand up for equitable mathematics.

Yes, the boat hit the iceberg, but putting the children in lifeboats is the most destructive thing imaginable to their psyche. It's time for us to stop all this evacuation talk and just complete the voyage.

Rigged? How the ever loving fuck could the election have been rigged. I guess the microchip in my vaccine has rendered me one of the “sheeple”. Seriously dude. Get some help.

The profession of teaching in #Alberta just released a deeply considered professional review, critique & analysis of the DRAFT K-6 curriculum. The findings are stunning in their clarity of concern; the K-6 curriculum is "fatally flawed"! teachers.ab.ca/News%20Room/I… #abed #bced #onted
