Overheard at breakfast in upstate NY this morning - I heard they don’t fight fires in Canada they just let the forest burn #welcometoamerica

@AllProDad Balancing what I need to do, work, with what I want to do, parent

Today my kid said he had the best day ever. What did he do: Road hockey and soccer with the neighbourhood kids.

Sometimes when my phone dies, I just wait a few hours before charging it, allowing myself to be more present in the moment. Kind of nice actually.

@RudyCuzzetto @ChrisGloverNDP Glad smiles all around. Wish we could find education workers that were that excited to work, as it would be nice to have public education show up so we can keep schools open.

[financeyourlife @financeyourlife]

@JustinTrudeau Now you stand for rights. Can you also stand for the right to education, for our kids. We all need a raise, this is not the way#getbacktoschool

[financeyourlife @financeyourlife]

We can legislate the end of the freedom convoy due to unbearable noise but we can’t legislate school workers back to work due to the mental health of 2 million kids - and their families. We all need a raise, this is not the way though. #unionfail #education

[financeyourlife @financeyourlife]

@CTVToronto I wish I could afford private schools so my kids education would not be dismissed and disrupted so easily by unions but I can’t, so very happy schools hopefully stay open and our wonderful educators can educate

[financeyourlife @financeyourlife]

@CTVToronto Trudeaus kids also likely go to private school and has never experienced how awful and disruptive the unions can be. I honestly believe the wonderful educators that short my kids want to work, and parents want to help support them. We need schools to be open.

Trudeau accused Ontario Premier Doug Ford of ‘hiding’ during convoy protests, new documents show - is this coming from the guy that actually went into hiding as opposed to dealing with the matter directly? Trudeau is too much.

Planned Parenthood should be thrilled, they'll be able to focus on providing all of that non-abortion medical care they constantly remind us about

Today I saw my daughters daycare teacher smile for the first time. That was nice. #masksoff #GetVaccinated #walklighter #daysarebright

@sposullivan5 @OttawaPolice This is not a game this is people’s lives. Perhaps fault of the media, but this comment is awful.

[financeyourlife @financeyourlife]

@TorontoStar @EmmaRoseTeitel As a journalist and not a scientist, you are essentially giving your opinion on what the rules should be. Likely this is me aggravated by the star’s inability to cover recent stories objectively, but don’t love this article.

Not all hero’s wear capes. But this ladies and gentlemen is my true hero. GIVER SHIT DAD!!! #FreedomConvoy2022

@JustinTrudeau this you?
Freedom of fear? Are you not controlling the narrative via mainstream media?
A lot of passionate freedom talk... One of you is/was lying...

I stand with the truckers. All Canadian Media, would love to see reporting on the story, not your perceived narrative. #FreedomConvoy2022

[financeyourlife @financeyourlife]

@TorontoStar Instead of hoping the truckers go away and focus on the story that isn’t there (violent truckers) I would love to see you tell the story of the truckers. While it’s unlikely that this could be a movement back to hero, maybe there’s a chance. #unlikelyhero

[financeyourlife @financeyourlife]

The unlikely heroes of Canada … perhaps public health, the government, or maybe even frontline hospital workers? Who would have thought it would be the truckers that might be giving us exactly what we need- Hope. #FreedomConvoy2022 #TruckersForFreedom2022 #giveusourcountryback

The cruel, ridiculous reality of 'virtual learning' This raises some great points. I have to pay someone $120/day to sit with my kids to facilitate online learning, and there are still tears. Incredibly frustrating and a devestating impact on kids https://t.co/kOHv1MejKj
