@6ixbuzztv In case anyone wants to actually learn more about their accomplishment. bramptonguardian.com/news/brampton-…

Brampton’s Central Peel high school team defeated over 23,000 students from around the world to win top space settlement prize They are the 1st Canadian team to win this grand prize

@HotDogThrower @Todd_Spence Lol

@Todd_Spence That’s too bad because you embarrassingly misused “whomever” in an attempt to look intelligent and now you won’t see my life-saving correction.

Whomever in 2004 thought Amy Poehler should be the one to do Michael Jackson on SNL deserves a raise 😂

@Ben67092834 @andddyyroox @TheExtremeMusi1 And 32 yrs later it appears nothing has changed…mirror.co.uk/travel/news/sp…

@andddyyroox @TheExtremeMusi1 Damon Albarn wrote the lyrics after observing the hedonistic party scene on a holiday in Magaluf, Spain (a popular spot for Club 18-30-style package holidays). He described seeing young people in "tacky Essex nightclubs" meeting up, drinking, having sex

one of the best things the English gave us

@6ixbuzztv *He and many Americans… (You can’t possibly expect to be taken seriously as a news source with writing of such poor calibre, right?)

An American streamer shares his experience after having to pay $1,000 in Toronto just for his broken hand to be looked at. Him and many Americans didn’t realize free healthcare was for Canadian citizens only.

@MirabelleW18 @BlanchardPhD How sad that she returned after only 3 months.

@BlanchardPhD When I was in grade school we had a teacher who disappeared for three months with absolutely no explanation to us and the only clue we had was her humongous belly before she left which was gone when she came back.

When I was in grammar school and high school, it was extremely rare for any teacher to make any reference to their personal lives. The only clue to teachers’ lives outside the classroom were the honorifics “Miss” and “Mrs,” which told you whether the teacher was married, and of course there were no such clues for male teachers. With one possible exception, I don’t recall any professor or lecturer ever talking about their personal lives, their political beliefs, their sexual orientation, or anything other than the course topic during the four years that I was in college (University of Pennsylvania, 1963-1967). (The one exception was a sociology course taught by a lecturer, who made repeated references to being from Walnut Creek, CA – references that meant nothing to me since I had never heard of Walnut Creek.) When I read online about the things that teachers at all levels now “share” with their students, I am reminded of the truth of the line, “The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.”

@Ducnghia16 I bet he said it’s “the one song he *wished he’d written” because he’s not illiterate.

Paul McCartney said this is the one song he wish he wrote.

@ScienceExpand *The Romans *knew physics.

Romans had known physics

@Acyn A dog would shit on his pillow.

Trump says he was pushed to get a dog when he was elected but rejected the idea. “It’s not going to work for me… Every president's had a dog because they do it for votes. Some of them do it because they love the dog, probably most of would do it for votes… I thought it would look quite fake”

@beauti_animals Toledo, OH?

Guess place?

@danpstars @blitzer_bills @jamesatkinson27 @nytimes @TheAthletic Perfect example of why AI is not to be trusted.

@blitzer_bills @jamesatkinson27 @nytimes @TheAthletic He a dumbass

From @TheAthletic: When singer Cami Clune's microphone malfunctioned during her rendition of the Canadian national anthem, fans in Buffalo rushed to her aid. “Those were all Americans singing the national anthem. It’s pretty unbelievable.” nyti.ms/4cR8nIE

@CBSNews Are they insinuating there’s a 5 mile gap of no man’s land between Buffalo and Fort Erie?

Fans of the Buffalo Sabres hockey team finished singing the Canadian national anthem after the singer’s mic failed on Tuesday at an NHL playoff game against the Boston Bruins. The Buffalo Sabres have a large Canadian fan base, as Buffalo is around five miles away from the U.S.-Canada border.

@jkenney Juno “News”

As I’ve said before, the single best thing that could happen to education in Canada would be for the Ontario government to defund OlSE.

@aegrant100 @RCsEvilTwin @krushowy @PaulCalandra @TorontoStar So everyone revolves around school breaks? Welcome to reality

Ontario students could be banned from cellphones even during lunch and breaks, says @PaulCalandra And parents - don’t pull Your kids out of school For extended vacations or sports tournaments that aren’t school-related #onted thestar.com/news/gta/ontar… via @torontostar

@sportslife38 @RCsEvilTwin @krushowy @PaulCalandra @TorontoStar euronews.com/travel/2024/08…

@aegrant100 @RCsEvilTwin @krushowy @PaulCalandra @TorontoStar No they cannot lmao

@RCsEvilTwin @krushowy @PaulCalandra @TorontoStar In Europe parents can be fined for taking their children out of school outside of the holidays. As a teacher I don’t really care if you take your kids out so long as there is no expectation that I prepare work expressly for that purpose or be expected to catch the kids up after

@krushowy @PaulCalandra @TorontoStar Cell phone ban good Undermining parental choices about extra-curricular and family activities bad

@ColinDMello Colin, please ask him HOW he plans to execute this ban and why ban #3 is somehow different than the 2 previous bans installed by the Ford government have failed.

As more jurisdictions look at social media bans, Ontario's Education Minister says a total cell phone / social media ban in schools might not go far enough. Ultimately, though, he says the province will work with the federal government on the issue. #onpoli

@parkdaler109 @CityNewsTO As a teacher, I’m not interested in policing this initiative in any way. This is an administrative matter. The govt needs to fund a central lock up & retrieval system. They will also need to hire addictions specialists for each school.

@CityNewsTO Put a place for each child's cell phone in a classroom Like a letterbox style container. Not at their desk.

#NEW: Ford government considering ban of cellphones on school property. toronto.citynews.ca/2026/04/28/ont…

@blogTO Why are they assuming people from outside of Toronto (GTA) would want to say they’re from Toronto?

Can you say you're from Toronto if you live in the GTA?

@KRISTINENOELLE5 @TorontoStar @MikeJToronto Summary. Almost all lessons are posted on-line, grades are based on tests/assignments not being present, prefer doing school from their bed, they are stressed about being overloaded with homework making school a 7 day job so the demands on them are greater than those on adults.

@TorontoStar @MikeJToronto The article is always stuck behind a pay wall but I have teenagers and I am not one of those parents who has their head in the sand so I could make an educated guess on what the article says.

I’m a Grade 11 student in Ontario. This is the real reason high school attendance is alarmingly low right now | #Opinion trib.al/6bVDnCm

@TheTrut04639288 @MrTeach47 @TorontoStar You should ask AI to correct your punctuation before you post.

@MrTeach47 @TorontoStar They are bored the school day and year are to long. Students understand the world now is technology— no need to study when you can ask Ai
