You know Canadians are serious comedians right? When you live in this climate, and have russia and america surrounding you, jokes are a defense mechanism.

We have it all...political discourse, cute animals, historical quotations, climate activists, readers, half naked blockables, artists, wannabe comedians. One can go from complete horrow and anger to hysterical laughter in just a few seconds.

Social media: Autistic child wins Jordan’s Principle case Scarlet's win could change the fate for an unknown number of children who were denied services through Jordan's Principle

#Indigenous Jordan’s Principle, a federal policy meant to ensure First Nations children receive β€œsubstantive equality” health & education svcs as non-Indigenous children, closing gaps created by historical & geographic disadvantages.

Being sensitive is important in life and psych practice because it tells us we care. Being triggered is also important as it shows us what our soft spots are. Elephants, dolphins, whales, great apes all exhibit empathy behaviour and #Indigenous people know this better than most. Viva la empathy

Agreed. The Conservative leadership in Alberta has been in the pockets of the O&G industry at least since the 70s (and likely earleir). Just as in the USA, if you follow the $$$ you can see why Alberta is a sinkhole.

On the Lake Superior shoreline, tribal national park holds special meaning Frog Bay Tribal National Park opened in 2012 to restore reservation lands back to tribal ownership and ensure tribal members and outsiders alike can access the area for generations.

Frog Bay Tribal National Park along Lake Superior (established by Red Cliff Band in 2012) was the first of its kind. Other Tribes have since followed with similar parks.
