The next generation of Indigenous leaders stands on the shoulders of giants who advanced Indigenous sovereignty, rights, cultural and linguistic revitalization, and prosperity for their Nations. But they still face complex challenges. That’s why @Indspire and Action Canada are partnering for a 4th year to support emerging Indigenous leaders to take part in the Fellowship—open to candidates from all sectors across Turtle Island. Apply by Mar 10: actioncanada.ca/how-to-apply/ @cnychka

Come join us for our next edition of this fantastic program lead by our expert Program Directors, Martin Loken and Michael Pearson! November 13th, Ottawa.

Le fellowship d'Action Canada élargit les perspectives des participants en les mettant en contact avec des leaders canadiens de divers horizons. Pour Simon Gamache '15 de @FierteMTLPride, remettre en question ses valeurs et croyances a été une expérience vraiment enrichissante.

J'ai bien hâte de travailler avec et apprendre aux côtés de ces tous nouveaux fellows cette année!

Looking forward to working with and learning from these brand new Fellows this year!

The @actioncanada Fellowship is focusing on sustainable transportation, a major challenge for a giant country like ours. I'm therefore delighted to be on the @VIA_Rail train today, to get to Windsor for our third study tour, with mentor @MattDeCourcey.

Qu'est-ce que la politique publique ? “Public policy is like the invisible threads which hold our community together,” says physician Aliza Moledina. Regardez la vidéo ici : actioncanada.ca/policy-101/mod… #ActionCanada #learninganddevelopment #publicpolicy

Action Canada launched its Policy 101 series, breaking down the elements of public policy into four digestible, engaging modules. You can access the Policy 101 series, here: actioncanada.ca/policy-101/ #ActionCanada #learninganddevelopment #publicpolicy

📣We are so excited about our first ever Giving Day on Wednesday! Over the course of 36 hours we want Antonians to help us restore the ❤️ of our community, the Hilda Besse Building and the quad! Keep an eye out 👀 for ways to join in, challenges and more! #HildaBesseGivingDay

Today is a good day. It’s easier to be a parent this morning. Character MATTERS. Being a good person MATTERS. This is a big deal. It’s easy to do it the cheap way and get away with stuff — but it comes back around. Today is a good day. #PresidentBiden #VotersDecided

Interesting and thoughtful perspective offered by my friend @stinkyrice:

@shoshannasaxe @JohnTory @JoshMatlow @Walk_TO @biketo The quieter roads seem to be leading drivers to go faster than ever. E.g. Dupont feels like a racetrack. Definitely measures need to be taken so that people can safely walk/bike for essential outings to the grocery store or pharmacy.
