The $500,000 spent on this public awareness campaign would have been better spent on increasing access to breakfast programs.
Or more mental health supports.
Or providing PD on culturally responsive practices.

Canadian thanksgiving is a tier one holiday. No gifting stress, no pressure to have fun like NYE, excellent food, feels "alt" vs the bloated American version, no religious stuff or pilgrims just a vague "harvest" theme, stuffing, 10/10
It’s not complicated. Education funding should match inflation. We know our students are worth it. Do you? @minewasko@HStefansonMB @InterlakeTA @mbteachers
Today on #WorldTeachersDay I’m thinking of colleagues across Manitoba who work so hard for all of their students. Education funding has not kept up with rising costs, so we are stuck doing more with less. #MTSLobbyDay
@cityofwinnipeg This can’t be real life….my request is that my kids can register for swimming lessons. Level 3 and level 4. Let me know when it’s done. Thanks.
This is well said. Two sides to a complicated holiday. We can mourn the darkness of the past and work to ensure a brighter future. Happy #CanadaDay2022 🇨🇦
Not many places I’d rather be on the last night in my 30s than right here in this beautiful city to watch this beautiful story with this beautiful person! @HamiltonMusical#ThisIsForty#TheRoomWhereItHappens
