We need both safe spaces and brave spaces for our students, for Indigenous knowledge to be shared, where students can call out oppression and racism, and where they can have a voice to share their stories. #tech4reconciliation

Excellent thread - @fordnation’s & @Sflecce’s misuse of the Notwithstanding Clause is an attack on Charter guaranteed rights. The fact that they used it means they acknowledge they are knowingly violating rights with that bill. #IStandWithCUPE
I am not an Ontarian, or a teacher, or an education assistant, but I have a perspective on the Ford government’s “Keeping Students in Schools Act”. I was Minister of Education in Alberta for 7 years, including the time the Charter was developed and enacted. #onted #onpoli

If you’re wondering what time it is - it is 6:40am. #clocksgoback NEXT WEEK! #bellmobilityfail.
Silencing the voices of critics during an election campaign is absolutely NOT a justifiable or necessary reason to invoke the notwithstanding clause for the 1st time in our province’s history. @fordnation Government announced they will invoke the notwithstanding clause. 1/2

The clause exists so that governments can violate the Fundamental Freedoms enshrined in the Charter in situations where necessary + in OUR best interest. Is this necessary or in the best interest of our country or province? 2/2
Excellent thread 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
So.. big news day huh? Lots of people have reached out with kind words both publicly and privately and I’m very flattered. I wasn’t expecting or looking for attention, so it’s a bit overwhelming. But I need to clear some other things up. So here’s an #onpoli thread:

Reminder: Don't assign projects over the Christmas break to your students. Each student has a different home/life dynamic. These holidays should be spent resting and taking care of our mental health. It's been a rough 2020.
So happy my girls could witness this historic moment @SenKamalaHarris #bidenharis2020
Replying to @MSNOWNews
BREAKING: Kamala Harris will make history as the first female, first Black and first Asian American to be U.S. vice president-elect.

Finally! @JoeBiden @SenKamalaHarris! Proof you can become anything you want to be...Truth & character matter!
Love this 💕
Absolutely LOVE this from our school district superintendent. Sure, we could do virtual classes on snow days now, but why would we take *another* thing away from the kids? I dunno what it says about me but this email almost made me cry
