RCMP warn about imminent release of convicted sex offender Eddie Henshaw. They say he is a high risk to reoffend. Warning especially focused on Windsor, N.S. area. #cbcns

I'm going to continue to post this image as long as we keep prioritizing money over lives.

I don't want us to be lulled into thinking this is normal. This is a choice.

The children who died today were our neighbors.

Everyone will have an opinion of you. Some you'll agree with, others you won't. Just remember regardless of whether you agree or disagree --- their opinion belongs to them --- not you. Just stay focused on your goals, and you'll soon outpace the useless opinions of others. ❤️

@Oprah Is my heart a zone of peace? This spoke to me this morning on my way to work. ❤️

Dear Minister @zachchurchill 1) I am in my 8th year as a learning centre teacher. I am also a parent of 2 children in public school- one with ADHD. 2) I reject the #glazereport 3)I would welcome the opportunity to talk to you about the needs of “my kids”!

[Alexis Mclellan @MclellanAlexis]

Hello @zachchurchill 1. I am a STUDENT. 2. You do not speak to me, or any of my classmates. 3. I will continuously stand with the teachers as they fight for bettering our education. 4. If you care enough about our education #presspause #stepup4students. #nspoli #nstu #glazereport

[NS Public Education Matters @nsedmatters]

Yes, where you live in NS does impact how you do in school because poverty rates are different across the province. There is a strong link between educational success and poverty level. Why not tackle Nova Scotia's poverty problem first? #nsed #nspoli #stepup4students

@comac17 @CTVAtlantic @CTVAnchor Thank you ❤️

[Corey MacDonald @comac17]

In a time where Nova Scotians are trying to get more informed on the state of education in NS, @CTVAtlantic chose to bring PARKER DUNHAM on to blurt his usual fossilized nonsense!?! What are his credentials on this topic anyway?? I expect BETTER @CTVAnchor. #nspoli

Black educators feel left behind as N.S. government moves ahead with Glaze Report https://t.co/XeIXPHv3n4 #nspoli #dividedistract #glazedover

[The NSNU @NS_nurses]

Our sisters and brothers at the NSTU work tirelessly for and with children, deserving respect from the public and elected representatives.
Nurses stand in solidarity with teachers as they, once again, fight for what's best for their members and the students in their charge.

Look at your school parking lot. Any potholes? It’s likely bad. This is because of money invested elsewhere like new schools that were never asked for. Now, think of that parking lot as a classroom and those potholes are kids who need EPA’s. #EducationUnited #SchoolBoardsMatter

@BeckyHimmelman @HRSB_Official @TILTHRSB Can your 1s come teacher my high school students please!

[Mark Laventure @marklaventure]

Interesting fact. Canada has one of the safest air traffic systems in the world. And guess what? Air traffic controllers and their supervisors are in the same union. Why? Because to lead and mentor air traffic controllers, you have to be one first. #nspoli #dividedistract

[amanda macdonald @macdonald902]

@JohnMacNeil42 @HRSB_Official Looking good Neil!
