Sully’s first goose chase, also his first introduction to water aside from the bath tub. That first step surprised the both of us, should have started in the shallow end. @DogsOfTurf @BayviewClub #newfoundlanderbuiltforswimming
Dear @mbteachers siblings:
You don't need to wait for her report. Scotland & NS will tell you everything you need to know what's coming.
Organize. Educate. Mobilize. Collaborate with parents, students & partners.
You've got 6 months before schools are worse off, forever.
I love how people complain that teachers get too many breaks. Yet, all of you, including me, either can’t wait for the breaks to end or we throw them in camps when they are home. And that’s with 1-4 kids. Imagine having 34. Enjoy your March Break teachers.
Almost 1 in 5 Nova Scotia children are living in poverty.
We are the only province in Canada where child poverty has increased since 2015, yet the McNeil government has yet to adopt a plan to address this crisis. #nspoli

Your government blocked hundreds of teachers and parents from speaking at Law Amendments to have their say on Bill 75. No previous government had ever denied Nova Scotians of this right in the past. #nspoli#nsed

NSTeacher "It's a shame that the general optics of the teaching profession are eclipsed by summer break. No one realizes we aren't paid for the summer. The degree of ignorance...about our job, how schools run, how the system runs, is unnerving" #ESJ365daysofteachervoice #13/365
Watch @EllenPage, a tiny Canadian, call out Trump, Pence, the polluters in my hometown of Pictou, Nova Scotia and more! This is just incredible.

Keep it up @StephenMcNeil...You won't have a teacher left in this province by 2030. We can't recruit enough as it is. Think the doctor's shortage is an issue? Might be time for #NovaScotia to recognize the real threat here...(And No, it is not the pension.)
The NSTU is ready and willing to work with govt to strengthen the Teachers' Pension Plan through its pension board. This process is established under NS legislation. It also prevents the Premier from playing politics with the hard-earned pensions of teachers. #nspoli#nsed
How do we get more money directed to Physical Education? Especially in the younger ages? Better fields? Better gyms? Better instruction? More hours a week? This would reduce social cost and improve health outcomes even more.
If you see someone on this list you know then tag them. 1986 Canadian Junior Golf Championships. Final Results. This was as close as I got to winning The Masters.
.@zachchurchill continues to claim changes forced through #Bill72 rather than collaboration w @NSTeachersUnion are based on what's best for students. He also continues to fail to produce any evidence that supports his position. #nsed#nslab#nspoli

Minister Churchill says his government has hired 1,000 new teachers, but according to data available on the NS government Web site, only 130 teachers have been added since 2013. @thesmacleodshow
.@NSTeachersUnion teachers urge @StephenMcNeil that an accurate pulse demands he listen to all NSians rather than the mere 3/10 who feel his leadership is adequate.
Consider this a formal invitation for a joint tour of #nsed schools to compare impressions. #nspoli /3
Hey @Nike I’ve seen two shirts today. “Play me or trade me” and “Fear failure.” Is that seriously the message you want kids to wear around? Where’s the #growthmindset? @MsBarclayPE
