Happy Friday everyone.
I had AI generate selfies from important moments in Canadian history.
I use AI to raise interest in Canadian history by presenting it in a fun way.

1. Vikings arriving in Newfoundland in 1000 CE.

My AI thread yesterday was pretty white male centric. I wanted to fix that as it wasn't my intention.
Here are Indigenous, Black Canadian & women from our history doing selfie photos.

It isn't exact, but hope you enjoy it.

1. John Ware on a cattle drive into Alberta.

The tallest, deepest and more in Canada, a thread!

The tallest mountain in Canada is Mount Logan, which rises to 5,959 metres in the Yukon. It is named for Sir William Edmond Logan.
The mountain increases in size by .35 mm each year.

CLBC's Cultural Safety Policy is an important step to ensuring CLBC’s & the community living sector’s actions align with the rights of Indigenous Peoples. CLBC has created a new video to raise awareness & understanding of the principles guiding this policy https://t.co/5ZG2BayxQH

Employment First policies require that employment be the first service and priority for people seeking social assistance. #InclusionWorks

Real jobs for real pay for all people with disabilities.
Simple.

[Ernie Baatz @ejbaatz]

“Employment First” is an example of this belief. #InclusionWorks

Honourable Members @JustinTrudeau @PierrePoilievre @theJagmeetSingh @yfblanchet since Bill C-22 has all party support and knowing that persons with disabilities have been waiting for some time, what say we get Bill C-22 on the House's agenda this week so it can get Royal Assent.

[Inclusion Canada @InclusionCA]

We are asking for all-party support to fast track the final passage of Bill C-22. Same that was shown at previous votes on C-22. Please get this to the floor of @OurCommons for quick passage. We don't understand the delay. @BonitaZarrillo @TracyGrayKLC @morricemike @CQualtro 🫤

maybe you could state that alcohol and tobacco use accounts for $11.7B (or 87%) of the total amount because omitting that would be very misleading and rather harmful

@BernadetteNTF Three granddaughters now! 3 years old, 20 months old and four months old.

South Korea proposes 69-hour workweek, up from an already long 52 hours. Ha! And people in BC are looking at a 4 day work week. https://t.co/x2YufrE7KF

[Ernie Baatz @ejbaatz]

@BernadetteNTF I know. I just think it’s hilarious. I did 4 days a week for a year with one day a week with the granddaughter… So much fun, and healthier too.
