The table is set: Negotiations resume between the province and B.C.’s teachers next week The BC Teachers Federation says it will return to the bargaining table on behalf of 52,000 public school teachers in B.C. following a "meaningful commitment" from the province.

Don’t forget about the EA’s that have been without a contact for just as long. Working shorthanded on a regular basis, with way fewer perks than the teachers. We all deserve a respectful contract!

This also take solid tenancy laws. If renting is expensive and precarious, owning is the option to aim for. People of all incomes need stable appropriate housing, that they can rely on for the time they want to be there. Ideally it should be a matter of preference, not fear of eviction.

FYI I’ve ordered straight from a couple websites rather than Amazon and it still came via Amazon! I was annoyed, and I try to double check how places ship now to avoid accidentally supporting them.

Now to make it easier to rent bikes for kids in Copenhagen! Thank goodness for an excellent bus network, and train network, and metro and walkable distances….wait, what was the problem? Hmmm might have to go back to Copenhagen to figure it out.

This thread is very relatable! Not sure if you want advice, but what helped me was digging into the anxiety and self esteem piece with a counsellor. It helped me shift gears and see myself a bit clearer, instead of being stuck in the anxiety muck.

The sticker price was a shock for me too, over most of Europe, but honestly not that bad when you consider that tax and tip is included. $20 at chili’s works out to about $25 when you add in tax and tip. I wish we included tax and paid workers well so we didn’t have to tip!

I get this. I listened to a song today that Gord Downie did vocals for, and it caught me off guard. His voice is emotionally perfect. So much power in his delivery. I don’t know if I could handle the doc. But maybe a cathartic cry would be a good thing.

I agree! It’s like letting future readers know it’s a good place to pause!

Yeah, it gets a bit silly. Also the grandmothers and their persistent requests if it isn’t shared immediately.
It’s not always the best day, there are a lot of feelings, and while I love a nice picture of my kids, it’s not as important as making sure they are mentally and emotionally ready.

Cartoon illustrating, how traffic induces more traffic. “There is too much traffic for Billy to walk to school, so we drive him.”

As our kids go #BackToSchool, never forget that we ARE the traffic that we’re afraid of. If more kids walked, biked or rode transit to school, it would erase a massive number of car trips each day, and our kids would be safer, healthier and better at school. HT Ian Lockwood.

Spread the word.

Victoria’s biggest park, Beacon Hill, has a hundred year old covenant that prevents commercial usage in the park. So there is not one place to eat or drink in the whole park. It’s ridiculous.

It is bizarre that flight attendants do not get paid for their work. Absolutely does not make any sense that this is the norm.

This is the kind of cycling advocacy that changes lives! Seriously, love it. They are so cute!!

How much better transit could we get for one overpass? How many kilometers of AAA infrastructure. How many missing sidewalks could we fill in? Such a waste of money to encourage driving.

What panniers are these? They look like they handle a LOT!
Also, this reminded me why I only get eggs from certain grocery stores because the roads around my favourite place are so bumpy! One too many eggy messes on my bike!

First, Hope you’re healing well, second, the medical systems treatment of anyone who doesn’t drive is archaic and based on fear and ignorance and is not evidenced based!
