Satisfaction is characterized by inner peace. It arises from generosity, honesty and what I call ethical conduct, a way of behaving that respects others’ right to be happy.

Hope is like wax in a candle. Without the wax, the wick would burn quickly. Hope provides the grounding & stability for the fire of joy. I'm smiling with the hope that my shoulder will heal & I will return to normal dancing. I am sending joy, hope and positivity across the world!

We must find secular ways to cultivate warm-heartedness — to educate ourselves about inner values. The source of a happy life is within us. Troublemakers in many parts of the world are often well educated, so it’s not just education we need. We must pay attention to inner values.

#COVID19 has upended the lives of children worldwide. With many children in jeopardy, I appeal to leaders at all levels to do everything in their power to cushion the impact of the pandemic - and protect our children. bit.ly/2VgfF25

We are dedicated to making sure British Columbians have the essential services they need, like access to groceries. There is no need to stockpile, retailers have assured us there is an abundance of supply and they are restocking regularly. #COVIDbc

The Ford gov has announced very troubling changes to social assistance, including the privatization of ODSP & OW employment services in some cities. Hamilton-Niagara will be serviced by a US-based provider. In Peel, its a subsidiary of an Australian private sector company.
Ford's next big mistake. Privatizing social asistance. "The British Conservatives cancelled the experiment after six years. The Australians have been walking back significant aspects of their system." #onpoli catholicregister.org/item/31… via @CatholicRegistr

Given your policies and actions how could you possibly be serious? Try thinking of more than one variable at a time.
Teachers are now hired based on seniority, not merit. The best young teachers can be stuck in supply teaching roles for years, limiting diversity and equity in hiring. The teacher unions are determined to maintain this system. We think that’s wrong. We’re fighting to change it.
