@LeoNickerson @StAlbertPublic @peterhreynolds Maybe I’ll start the complimentary hashtag: #timetolisten

I see those lips moving, time to open my ears.

@nataliejolyT8N I believe that anyone in a leadership position should have a well defined ‘WHY’ they are there. Even if it’s not written, it should be obvious. In educating the next generation of voters we do not tell them who to vote for but what red flags to see. Waffling from why = no vote.

The last 6 words should be the tip of the arrow head that pierces the cold hearts of politicians!

“These 500 tragedies are independent of the total number of children who contracted the virus. COVID would not be a worse disease if only 1,000 children contracted it, but 50% died. Either way, 500 children are dead. As Dr. Walensky said, “Children are not supposed to die”.

Great article on how cognitive illusions are used to manipulate our perception of harm. — “The fallacy of minimizing one harm by pointing out a more severe harm is called the fallacy of relative privation, it has been commonly employed to minimize how COVID has harmed children.”

My heart is full knowing that these wonderful young people still hold high on their values list physical education and activity. I promise to work harder and smarter to honour their values when we get back to normal #GetVaccinatedASAP

Ok... I can retire now... there is an enthusiastic enough replacement!! (Pssst ... Andrew... you just passed PE till the end of the year)

@TheAASUA @MarotoMichelle It IS terrible that this government cut university funding. But amidst these cuts, uni administrators / professors got pay raises and students incurred significantly higher tuition with reduced quality instruction. Mmmm

Another chilly morning run today. 🏃‍♀️
Thanks to @joececiyyc and @ThomasDangAB for joining me on the 9.6km run.

I believe it was Douglas Adam’s who’s said, “Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.” @jordanbpeterson would make a fantastic advisor!!!

[Dr Jordan B Peterson @jordanbpeterson]

In part because I don't have the emotional resilience necessary to tolerate the endless cruel criticism...

[Glenn Wilson @physedguy]

I’ll take. “Things that make you go hmmm for a thousand Alex”

Well folks; A friend of mine working on the rigs lost his job and with his high school education has found it impossible to find another job that pays over 100,000 per year. He had to sell his quad & snowmobile. Clearly this is the evil SoCiALisTs plot/plan. #KenneyStoryTime

Look under the byline: August 2018. Completely out of context. If you believe that I’ll show you some 1937 adverts that show that smoking is good for you. Relevancy. Science is always admitting that being wrong (admitting it) is part of the path to being right!

@katesversion That just brought spontaneous tears to my eyes. Please thank your mother for being a role model to every lifelong learner.

@BrendaVanderme2 Love it!! New paint coming up!!

[Glenn Wilson @physedguy]

@MrsHauptman Wow!! That just made my year!!

[Glenn Wilson @physedguy]

@nicole_in_AB @SAndersonshpk 1. check those facts against cost of living indices + parameters conveniently omitted (teachers have had a total of 2% increase over 8 years) 2. Drinking the UCP koolaid does not qualify one as an expert. 3. Work with me for ONE day if you make it without bitching I’ll take a cut

I believe our provincial government should be required to wear uniforms... like NASCAR with all those sponsor patches. That way we would know who was pulling their strings.

[Jordan Stein @JordanSteinAB]

Just reposting this gem from 2019 cause, like, *lol* a thing we actually agree on.

[Glenn Wilson @physedguy]

A possible positive... beyond saving lives from a deadly virus, could it be possible that MASKS would reduce the number of SMOKERS? Therefore saving more lives?
