So I wrote a column on how Pierre Poilievre’s pit stop wasn’t a smart idea and how it’s giving Liberals a reason for hope (which is probably a reflection shared by 90+% of MPs) and the insults on my feed are something else. No one is forcing you to read. thestar.com/politics/pierre-…

There is no doubt that many Canadians are tired of the Liberal government, but surely we can do better than what the Conservative leader is offering, Althia Raj writes.

What I love about the books I’ve been reading lately is the honesty they use to present the very stark challenges diverse kids face. Another great reason to provide choice within inclusive UDL frameworks. @kellyyanghk @bettyctang thank you for these stories.

Heart-centered change is spreading! My book Reclaiming Our Students sold out super fast at #RFTLOI2023. The great local shop Another Story sold it at the conference. I send folks to independent bookstores not Amazon, but as none were left here, it's #1 again today in Education😊

Let's be clear — the Conservatives aren't interested in helping you lower your heating costs. They blocked the NDP from removing the tax off your home heating bill. As thousands struggle with the high cost of heating — New Democrats are fighting to help you.

Pierre Poilievre tried to stop free dentalcare for children under 12 today in Parliament. Do you know who doesn’t worry about their children not having access to dentalcare Pierre Poilievre and his cushy/privileged job.

So…Once again, Canadian Conservative MPs have voted against dental care for low-income children when these same MPs receive tax-payer funded dental care themselves. Disgusting.

In case you're wondering who voted against kids 12-year-olds and younger getting Dental Care - Pierre Poilievre did.
