If you're going to read one article online today, make it this one. And share it widely. This is a powerful statement by @DanielBrownLaw, countering outraged calls to restrict bail. We should not compound this tragic event by jailing more people. /2

@AllisonSiobhan @TorontoTeacherX If it's not in the collective agreement it falls under "management rights." In other words, the employer can require online teaching *because* it's not in the collective agreement.

@ContestJean @j_pagsy @MikeJToronto The problem is that if online teaching is not prohibited by the collective agreement, then it can be required by the employer, generally speaking. Whether or not that collective agreement has expired.

@JohnHaleCrimLaw But I say unto you, Swear not at all ... But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. Matthew 5:34-37.

@amandadoeslaw I was recently on a beach late at night near Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia. Still some light pollution, but the Milky Way was evident. Stars everywhere!

@LindaColbourne @TorontoTeacherX And if I recall correctly, binding arbitration is resisted by governments because while it does avoided disruptive strikes, it also tends to result in reasonable contacts.

@Biz1961 @kinderworld2021 @TorontoTeacherX @mmofcan This is true. Teachers in Ontario have the great benefit of the government contributing equally to the pension plan.

@TheEdMain @BrentButt I also use a puck as a door stop - just a pick on the floor that stops the door from banging into the wall.

@DAVIDMUGGLE1 @IRPlawyer If they decide to open the trunk they will do so. You won't be able to stop them. But don't open it for them (which they might view as consent) - they can open it themselves.

Brilliant analysis of the Kirkpatrick majority decision. Mandatory reading for anybody wanting to understand this case, and the criticisms of it. This thread alone is worth joining Twitter. Thanks @petersankoff!

[Peter Sankoff @petersankoff]

1/ There's a lot to say about Kirkpatrick. I want to focus on three elements: (1) The substance; (2) The ramifications; (3) What it says about Stare Decisis.

It's amazing how many places currently have a party system where one party is profoundly disappointing and the other is legitimately terrifying.

@rjjago @kwetoday Current edit confuses me. Are you talking about one band or two? The legal name is "New Westminster Indian Band" but it's been renamed Qayqayt by Rhonda Larrabee. She is the chief of Quaqayt band and also created New Westminster band? Is she also chief of New Westminster band?
