💰Economic inequality is on the rise, and children will bear its burden. Yet children’s perspectives are rarely considered. We urgently need research to understand economic inequality from children's perspectives. (1/4)

Smith Bulldozes Canadian Constitution Over Trans Kid Bills
No evidence. None.
@ABDanielleSmith has not produced one shred of evidence to prove that trans children are being harmed.
In fact, the data says the opposite.

This is what's at stake.
The UCP is not only dodging its responsibility to explain how Bill 9 is in any way proportionate or justifiable in a free and democratic society.
They are putting children at far greater risk of suicide.
There was never any point to having reference letters. That's why we've all started using AI to do this nonesense task.
References should only be used for short-listed candidates for important positions/awards, and ideally, be done via a call to get the most honest opinion possible.
Fully agree

A photo of a large, historic stone building with a domed tower and columns, topped with a Canadian flag. The structure is surrounded by high walls and a watchtower, with a sign on the wall reading "Guides." The scene is set on a cold day with snow on the ground and a gray sky, and a road runs in front of the building.
The Kingston Penitentiary has a history that dates back almost 200 years.
Many individuals went to that prison and never left. Some are reported to still haunt the halls and cells where they spent their last moments.
This is the spooky story.

The Alberta government stopped tracking class sizes, and then the province's population growth really took off. @robsonfletcher.com set out to find out how the numbers of teachers compare to that growth, with the limited info available
Class size/composition is a strike issue.

From one-on-one help to manageable class sizes, public education needs real investments — not more delays. Teachers are pushing for change. #KidsCantWaitAB #StopTheExcuses
