Just get out the door.

Lower the bar to just get moving, and your motivation will grow. Wait for motivation to get started & you often never get going.

We see this in races. Nerves make life miserable.

But if you just get to the gun going off, it fades away & motivation rises:

Today I asked the Min. of Education @Sflecce why First Nations schools are not included in Ontario free menstrual products program. I was not given an answer.

Jurisdictional issues should not be dividing provincial and First Nations schools and students.

[Tessa Davis @TessaRDavis]

Henrietta Lacks died in 1951, aged 31.

Cells from her cervix saved 1000s of lives:

• Used in 75,000 studies
• Paved the way for HPV + COVID vaccines
• Helped develop drugs for HIV

But they were taken without her consent.

This week the WHO honoured her.

It's not enough🧵👇

[Ritika Goel @RitikaGoelTO]

Only 11 residential schools have been searched.
Already 5000 graves of children have been found.
There were 1300 residential schools.

Just sit with that.
The scale of violence is truly beyond words.

TRC Day is coming up and here is your challenge.

Find 10 new Indigenous accounts to follow. I'm not going to recommend any. You do the work. Find 10. Follow them.

And here's the important part.

Do not respond to anything they say. Read. Listen. Find 10 more.

What.....the fuck is this?? Canada disenfranchising on-reserve voters is extremely on brand and absolutely unacceptable. @ElectionsCan_E how will this be addressed? #Elxn44 #cdnpoli

[Andrea Horwath @AndreaHorwath]

Great news!

Ontario needs to start creating a plan immediately to get these vaccines into our schools once they become available.

Millions have done the right thing and they want their kids to be safe too.

None of Ford's half measures and delays. Make a plan now. #Onpoli

[Triathlon Magazine @TriMagCan]

In June, Canada's national triathlon coach, who's last day at Traithlon Canada is Aug. 20, was suspended for five days for abusing the coach/ athlete relationship and not creating a safe-coaching environment:
