@sdavids51 One of my favourite field trips for my Grade 7s at Blacklock. I continued it on my own at HDSMS doing a study of the Pleasantdale creek that flowed by the school. Highlight was counting the chum salmon returning each fall and seeing a spawning pair of coho. Real world learning

Never forget this educators! Learning is all around us! And these memories can last a life time!

@BobbyVanCity @James33211729 @NathanGraviteh Except his attempt at the puck (when it was within reach ) was no where near the face. His second swing (when the puck was already out of reach) was the one that was a high stick. Definitely not playing the puck.

@James33211729 @NathanGraviteh Hi James. Not saying I like it, and it's definitely a gray area when you look at the exception to rule 60. I think the refs believed it was a legit attempt to play the puck. Here's the NHL's video on the matter: nhl.com/video/high-sti…

wow, this missed call was NUTS.

@Barb50144400 @Adam_Stirling Mask DO work (or else doctors and nurses wouldn’t use them), they just are not perfect (even a N95 or N99 is less than 100). Cheap Cloth masks, while much less effective, ARE better than no mask, but yes can be counterproductive if people change their other behaviours for worse

I can’t believe the government lied to us and we’ve all been washing our hands like sheep EVERY DAY for nothing #covid19

@Adam_Stirling Lol, the sad reality is you needed the government to tell you to wash your hands. Just basic good hygiene dude. I have not gotten a cold or flu since last year and I can bet it was due to those useless measures the government insisted we take.

@cbjthygesen @Kozman71 🤔The bell rang on Friday?

Great opening question for a staff meeting!!

@sdavids51 Atmospheric River, the politically correct rebranding of the Pineapple Express

Does all this rain have one of those new, fancy meteorological terms, or are we sticking with cats and dogs?

@CarrieBercic Since they do not want to waste too much instructional time on eating lunch, they make it just 10 minutes.

Wow. I'm reading a Facebook thread w/ parents & teachers talking about drastically reduced time for students/staff to eat lunch. Shocking that anyone is expected to eat a meal in 10 mins or less. Kids coming home hungry w/ wasted food. #vsb39 & other #bced trustees, what say you?

@CarrieBercic The issue is with the collective agreement that guarantees teachers a duty free lunch. That means they cannot be asked to supervise students during their lunch break. To get around this, administration makes the eating period a part of instructional time.

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 If more people are vaccinated to begin with, there is few virus spreading and therefore less risk you will get it and spread it to your unvaccinated kids. It REALLY is that simple.

@Mr_Sandquist @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 It says, FROM vaxxed to unvaxxed. Watch again.

B.C.’s premier says he’s disappointed with restaurant owners and other businesses who are defying orders to demand proof of vaccination. bit.ly/3EMum1K

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 With Delta, since it is a mutation, your response may not be as strong as against the original virus, but it is still better than the unvaccinated, but like the original virus, you CAN still spread it, especially to unvaccinated people like your kids.

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 Once you are vaccinated, your immune response is quicker, and the virus cannot replicate as much, but you CAN still spread it, just not as easily as someone unvaxed.

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 Since it is replicating before you develop symptoms, you are spreading the virus before you realize you are sick. This means you can spread it to your family.

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 This is how viruses work. A virus enters your body. If you have never been in contact with this virus, it is able to replicate rapidly before your body recognize it is a virus and begins producing antibodies and fights it off (leading to symposiums like a fever).

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 Their children have no choice but to be unvaxed (they cannot yet receive a vaccination). People that are refusing the vaccination by choice, are just being reckless as they are increasing the spread. Get it?

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 It really isn’t gymnastics, but is is like trying to explain something to a child. Again, you need to read more than a snippet on TV. Try reading the studies she is referencing. Since the vaxed CAN get Delta that means they can spread it to the unvaxed (their children).

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 In fact what she is saying is that the unvaccinated are sooo vulnerable that even the vaccinated can spread Delta to them. This is why vaccines are rendered ineffective when a significant number refuse it for no good reason.

@Mr_Sandquist @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 It means you haven't watched the video and you're behind with the narrative. The vaxxed ones are endagering the unvaxed. Said the expert on Tv, not me.

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 Again, you need to read more than a snippet on TV. She is just pointing out that the Delta variant can spread to vaccinated people (no has EVER claimed vaccines are 100% protection).

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 Easy, it is a variant that can spread more readily to vaccinated people (since this mutation was not a part of the initial vaccine). This is why we need different flu shots every year depending on which variant is must prevalent. Not difficult to understand, really.

@Mr_Sandquist @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 Try this twitter.com/i/status/14413…

@GldSilence @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 It simply means that in unvaccinated person is going to shed more virus WHEN they get infected, because the vaccinated person who does contract the virus has a stronger and quicker immune response, resulting in less virus being reproduced.

@Mr_Sandquist @minervaB7 @NEWS1130 Your theories are not only unscientific but just libel to imply that every unvaxed is by default infected and a spreader of infection. Before covid, people would have to prove they're sick, now everyone is sick by default, unless injected?!
