In making their "business decision", Bell confirmed that women continue to face sexism and ageism at work everyday. #BCE , what is your plan, what will you do, to restore the public's trust?

@Mikeggibbs @BellMediaPR Yes! Lisa LaFlamme deserves better. She's an outstanding journalist and a role model to millions of Canadian women. The boneheads who made this decision should be fired immediately for being out of touch with their audience.

@corinasmoore This would be reassuring, if only it was true. Currently on a bus and I’m the only passenger wearing a mask. Talked to the driver and customer support, no one was willing to enforce this public safety measure.

[Roberta Osborne @RobertaLOsborne]

@corinasmoore Apparently the notification on the @OntNorthland website that masks are mandatory on all buses is a complete lie. Currently, I’m the only passenger on bus 340 wearing a mask. Driver refused to do anything about it. #COVIDIOT

[Roberta Osborne @RobertaLOsborne]

Apparently the notice that masks are mandatory is only for show. Currently, I’m the only passenger on the bus wearing a mask. #ontarionorthland #idiots https://t.co/QfmWqGJ6Jh

⁦@TTChelps⁩, “Forgot” basic manners? “Forgot” that we’re your customers, not perps? “Forgot” that you were the ones who decided to use Presto cards?

Great article on how bias affects student evaluations. https://t.co/C80PJb0kBf

@ProfJoeKim, Educause is now recommending a designated seating area for students who want to use electronic devices during class. #ecar2019

This is surprising. "In 1910 secondary-school enrollment among 14- to 17-year-olds was just over 10%. By 1920 it had reached nearly 30%, and by 1940 it was 70%." In 2016, 54.0% of Canadians aged 25 to 64 graduated from either college or university. https://t.co/K8htqlPvi8

Love this article! "Many of us are ready to accept that placebos can work in general, just not on us. A similar dynamic exists with implicit biases."

Looking forward to #EdCog2019 at McMaster. Always lots of ideas to improve teaching practice.

Productive stupidity is an important quality in an academic. Love this article! https://t.co/oI8txMF7ay

Love the title! :-) Great reminder that students' lives are just as complicated as the rest of us.

Just came across this great advice for anyone (like me!) who's ever felt awkward discussing gender, race, privilege, etc. https://t.co/CyOBJMyN6h
