@NahanniFontaine Discourse part 2: However, that cannot then be turned back into polarized talk of taking Canada back or lack of freedom talk. We have work to do for sure, But this completely invalidates the stories of people who feel we are finally moving towards reconciliation and inclusivity.

[Dr. Jo Ann Unger @drjounger]

@NahanniFontaine My attempt at constructive discourse: To move away from polarization, we need to learn how to listen to each other’s stories, no matter the political leaning. 2/3

[Dr. Jo Ann Unger @drjounger]

@NahanniFontaine I am so sorry you are experiencing abuse over Twitter. It is not okay. We have lost the ability to have constructive discourse. I hope we get it back some day. 1/3
