Today begins day 5 of the @psuossuo strike at @uOttawa. Shame on this employer! 1,300 staff would rather be supporting students but they were forced to strike to stop cuts to their health benefits.

Please show your solidarity and support in this #canlab fight. #FairDealNow4PSUO

#landback is the ongoing Indigenous resistance against state sanctioned colonization and genocide.

It's day 78 at #1492landbacklane. 30 land defenders and their allies have been arrested. Please consider joining me in making a contribution to the #1492landbacklane legal fund.

We are sharing this post that was made public. This is absolutely disgusting. We understand a retraction and apology has been issued- but how did this happen in the first place? This is the trauma our children live. This should never have happened at all #Blackstudentsmatter

[Elementary Educators @ETFOeducators]

Today we honour all the lives of #MMIWG2S people we have lost to violence. The recent loss Joyce Echaquan is a tragic reminder of the systemic racism faced by Indigenous women. We cannot and we will not forget the hate that fuelled such actions. #SistersInSpirit #onpoli

Nunavut NDP MP Mumilaaq Qaqqaq didn’t hold anything back when giving her opinion of the federal government’s throne speech.

During her response in the House of Commons, Qaqqaq said Canada failed Inuit before the COVID-19 pandemic struck – and still does today.

Guys, we're not yet 3 weeks in and I have no more energy. I can't imagine what administrators are feeling, but speaking as a homeroom teacher, it feels like June 52nd. It shouldn't be this way.

[AlexandriaCritch @MmeCritch]

@teachergoals
Absolutely, hilariously true 😂

[AlexandriaCritch @MmeCritch]

Prt 3: another, both POC and nonPOC students alike. Let the kids lead the change, they are ready and willing!

Prt 2: I asked the class what they knew about privilege and oppression and THEY DESCRIBED IT MORE DEEPLY THAN I COULD HAVE EVER EXPECTED. Our children are observing the injustices in the world. We need to make the classroom a safe space for them to discuss it and learn from one
