All across the country, #Indigenous Peoples are leading the way in conserving lands & waters. But we can’t do it alone. Here is some perspective on how Indigenous and non-Indigenous allies can work together in a new approach to #conservation: https://t.co/a1d5t7JCZr

Without access to medical supplies, PPE, and access to clean water, First Nation communities do not have what they need to fight a COVID-19 outbreak.

I think everyone has become more aware and appreciative of the amazing work our PSWs do....

The best way to thank PSWS & show them appreciation would be to provide:
➡️better wages
➡️needed PPE
➡️and to call a full, public inquiry on Long Term Care

The pandemic has resulted in hardship, anxiety and grief. However, during this time my wife was able to develop her online art store, a labour of love and a creative achievement. Holding on to the positive and being grateful. #proudhusband #creativity https://t.co/g9gKPgbfAQ

Minister decides to make a pithy point about “direct” live learning by tweeting out a photo of his meeting w elementary students....But doesn’t block out their names.

It’s a novice mistake....

👉And it’s why you should listen to the professionals (teachers).

Now apologize.

@swaseem8 Congratulations. You are a truly wonderful human. Anyone would be lucky to have you as their instructional leader.

This is Banksy's latest.

He posted it outside a hospital in the UK.

Then, uncharacteristically, he added a personal note:

“Thanks for all you’re doing. I hope this brightens the place up a bit, even if it’s only black and white"

Windows let you see in & see out. Drawing or painting a view through a window creates an interesting perspective or story within a story! What do you see in/out your window? How can you capture that view?What’s around the view in the window?#activityoftheday #shareyourart @HWDSB

Sometimes you don't really know the burden you're bearing until you feel the presence of silence, and then it all falls apart.

Be good to each other. We're all going to need significant amounts of empathy and kindness to make it through this.
