“Alberta’s order is precisely about banning books, as its direct effect is to force school authorities across the province to remove from their libraries a host of books deemed inappropriate by the state. This approach is textbook censorship…”

Deleted the first version of this post…
The vote today authorizes a strike vote, it isn’t a strike vote in an of itself.
Nonetheless it make it clear teachers are standing up for students and classrooms!

Brace yourselves Alberta!
While Danielle Smith is trying to distract everyone from…

All the things, Alberta teachers just overwhelmingly voted to REJECT the mediator’s recommendations for a new provincial contract t!

Tomorrow at noon, the premier is hosting a press conference on the "Alberta Accord" and "Alberta Next" ultimatums.
If I made better life choices and had the chance to be a journalist in the room, here's what I'd be asking. 🧵
Movie you've watched more than six times using gifs.
("Hard Mode": No Star Wars, Star Trek, or LotR.)
Side note... 'Hard Mode' wasn't too difficult. ;)
Watch: The premier is under fire after seeking help from the Trump administration, which she now denies, while insisting she was doing the right thing for Alberta.
Tyler Barrow has more. #yyc #calgary

Elbows up, Canada.
Too true...
A great idea! Pass it on. 🇨🇦
The premier should not attend this event, let alone speak at it.
🔴Prager is a well-known disinformation outlet.
🔴Shapiro is a well-known bigot.
🔴Florida is at the heart of our trade war with the United States.
This is a bad idea.
A portion of the cover for the book "Infinite Education" by Dan Fitzpatrick.
With some additional time now freed up in the schedule, I want to dig into soke recent work on AI in education. I enjoyed #TheAIClassroom and I'm looking forward to some new insights.
A picture of the cast for a local production of 'The Play that Goes Wrong'. Everyone is in their costumes and acting in a way that would be consistent with their characters in the play.
For the past few months, I've had the distinct privilege of being part of a local production of 'The Play that Goes Wrong'. It was a huge time commitment but also one of the most rewarding things I've ever done.
Maybe they should even label it a Trump Surcharge.
This is good. Real good eh

US has followed thru on raising tariffs on Canadian product by 25%
Canada's counter tariffs are now in effect to counter the US tariffs.
The most ridiculous, ignorant idiot elected as president has started a trade war with Canada. 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
I expect some hard days ahead, but I'm also encouraged by the desire of so many Canadians to unite and do their part. I have a feeling we'll need as much as that as we can muster

In the years since I have traveled back often and have many cherished memories with my family. But now, like many Canadians, I'm hurt and I'm angry. I never thought I would see someone succeed at shattering that image of America so forcefully. And yet, here we are.
I lived in California for a few years after high school, and I arrived in the days after 9/11. What I saw then was a country and people who were deeply wounded, but pulled together in ways I wasn't always used to seeing in Canada. It was inspiring and remained a key part of how I viewed the USA.
Canada faces revolutionary change. It may sound staid, but we urgently need something on the scale of a Royal Commission to *finally* figure out our options and choices.
Right now we’re not so much acting as reacting, casting about, not fully understanding where we are and what we’re doing. 🧵
Hey folks!
Looks like when we had to deactivate our youtube channel it also purged our subscriptions...

Albertans:
Have you written your MLA recently?
Maybe consider writing an email to your MLA. Let them know how you feel about healthcare in Alberta. Also let them know if they are heading in the right direction with regard to investigating alleged corruption in healthcare contracts.

Me giving the finger to one of the worst people on the planet right now.
It's been really easy to feel frustrated and overwhelmed by all the crap news coming from this absolute clown. This won't change much, but it makes me feel a little better. #cdnpoli

Great to see this show of unity and leadership from our former Prime Ministers.
Canada is so much bigger than our politics.

Four days it took her to say anything. And then she says … she will do nothing.
Not good enough. Her own office is implicated. The investigation can’t be delivered to the people being investigated. How dumb does she think Albertans are? /1
Smith's statement...
- Denies all wrongdoing (despite appearing the skybox photo's & her claims she directed the childrens med purchase)
- Demands the Auditor General to rush the investigation
- Demands the results of the AHS investigation delivered "directly" to her.

This needs more attention.
