Ms Cervantes class was working on equivalent fractions this morning. There were so many combinations to make equivalent fractions!

Today is #DayofPink and even though we are at home on a rare snow day closure, our students were still prepared.
Our lobby shows our #DayofPink tree where each student made a leaf showing our support.
We stand in solidarity with our 2SLGBTQIA+ community today and everyday.

"I immediately thought it would be beneficial to also use this in northern communities and reservations here in Canada that don't have the same access to medical facilities like we do here in the city," said Gabrielle Fontaine. https://t.co/CqnBnAxjWH

‘The @Wpg_BlueBombers are a great team. It’s great for Survivors to see that the team is behind them, supports them, and understand what they went through. I thank @Wpg_BlueBombers for honouring me and more importantly all the Survivors!’ - Murrary Sinclair @Wpg_BlueBombers

[Nishnawbe Aski Nation @NANComms]

Kitchi-meegwetch @Wpg_BlueBombers for welcoming us & recognizing Indian Residential Survivors & those who never made it home. We acknowledge your call to Canadians to never forget those we have lost & your commitment to a healthy relationship with communities!

Colonialism is not an idea from the history books, it’s something alive and living today in Canada argues @Pam_Palmater.

If you or someone you know is in a violent relationship, help is available. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

Instead of turkeys for Thanksgiving this year, Nursery and Kindergarten students learned about and used their fine motor skills to create harvest corn art as a way to honour our connection to the earth and the first people of Canada. @WinnipegSD

It makes zero sense that Manitobans have to pay money to a Texas company to enjoy parks in Manitoba.

Let’s get rid of this PC government.

'And so one of the things I make sure non Indigenous people understand is we don't need you to help heal us, we need you to fix yourselves. We need you to get those people out there who are perpetrating this process of working against reconciliation under control,' says Sinclair.

[Unreserved @CBCUnreserved]

Rosanna met with Murray Sinclair (in his backyard gazebo!) and had a powerful conversation about where we're at on the journey to reconciliation. It's a must-listen before Sept 30. https://t.co/3pXtmWuNrd

Orange Shirt Day — a National Day for Truth & Reconciliation.

Thinking of my dad today. Did the little boy sitting alone in St Mary’s Indian Residential School all those years ago ever think we would see a day like today?

Why'd I buy billboards? It was the right thing to do. While the provincial Tories are busy rebranding themselves, their PISA 2018 speaking points haven't changed from Bill 64. I've taken my facts from PISA 2018. https://t.co/8k4t7t57wE #CdnPoli #MbPoli #FundPublicEducation💖🏫

The Vancouver resident felt "conflicted" about being paid for a 'holiday' meant to celebrate and honour Indigenous peoples. Now, he's raised more than $45,000. https://t.co/AH6kaiin6W
