Meet Carol and Graham, a mother and son from Vermont, who ventured to Paramount Pictures today to take part in the studio’s guided tour of the grounds.

That is, until they saw picketers gathered outside the front gate.

With tour guides ready to take them inside, the duo refused to cross the picket line, instead joining demonstrators as part of the ongoing #ActorsStrike + #WritersStrike

Sometimes self-care means taking care of the things I don’t want to do but need to for my well-being. So today my self-care has been doing some chores and tasks that need to be done, even though it’s been a long and busy day (/week/month 🙃) #mbedchat #SelfCareDay

A bear-y impAWtant decision was made 7 years ago today: the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal told Canada to do the right thing and stop discriminating against First Nations kids.

Today I am reading about the case as its told in my very own book: https://t.co/Bg0GoITH2O

My three decades of service to the Manitoba Teachers’ Society have taught me how important strength and compassion are in challenging times. I recognize collaborative leadership and listening to members is integral. To learn more, check out my website https://t.co/IuDbMtA2cR

Let’s be clear: the Freedom Convoy does not align with the objectives of the @OrangeShirtSoc 🙅

I'm very sad to confirm Danielle Adams, the NDP MLA for Thompson and a dedicated mother and partner, passed away this afternoon.

Danielle fought hard for a better life for families, northerners, & kids across Manitoba.

To our dear colleague and friend—we will miss you so much!
