@sharongregson @DianneWatts4BC Ultimately child care (seamless) in schools that would result from #repealingdivision2 could bring a great deal of labour peace.

The stumbling block to expanding childcare in BC is not unions. Nobody is saying that except @DianneWatts4BC What needs to happen is mandate and funding to school districts for school-age care (including summers) and focused non-profit expansion for 0-4yr olds #10adaychildcare

@MitziDeanBC #repealdivision2 for labour peace ☮️

@SoniaFurstenau can you support #repealingdivision2 to protect @BCComplexKids from labour practices that use the most vulnerable children as pawns? #bcedcc @BCCPAC

@BCComplexKids FYI we are entering into a high conflict labour negotiation period. I think @keithbaldrey will concur we need to be out ahead of the gate as unions and government start propaganda campaigns. Our children need to have better protections #repealdivision2

@MitziDeanBC How about having school meet minimum standards of care and repeal division 2 of the CCAL. Why should sending your child to school mean they can’t have minimum standards of care?

78% of British Columbians agree that investing in child care is beneficial to the economy. @CCCA_BC @10aDayPlan researchco.ca/2024/05/27/10a…

Honouring all youth in and from care on National Youth in Care Day!

@AssistiveWare my son texted me full sentences for Mother’s Day. Ironically we never trained him to add please. Can’t wait till he starts emailing his @SoniaFurstenau MLA about more child care @RachnaSinghNDP

@HarrBainsSN could you please stop this practice of the BCTF. Children with neurodiversity should not be made to look like a problem in classrooms. Minimum standards of care through licensing can, why are schools exempt from minimum standards of care @RachnaSinghNDP

How can I file a human rights complaint about this. Publicly targeting children who are displaying traits of children with disabilities isn’t ok. Don’t negotiate on the backs of the neurodivergent we have enough to fight for. Just STOP! @humanrights4BC

@suerobinsyvr Moral injury caused unsafe work through deep life long harm. when you are forced to do something you know is wrong. Many times it’s slow and gradual until you look and see, I’m really not ok with this.

@CaringSociety Are you going to be in Prince George next week, could we buy the Socks there?

We still have Spirit Bear socks for sale! Head over to our website to check them out! All proceeds go towards child and youth-led reconciliation-based events and initiatives. If you purchased a pair, tag us in posts showing off your Spirit Bear socks 🧦🧸

How do we move child care from market commodity to a public good? Meaningful discussions at the #WorldForum on Early Care & Education - with important updates from @sharongregson @10aDayPlan! Time to have a coordinated funding system and ensure child care is a right for all! ☀️

Kitimat now has 44 new homes for women and children leaving violence. The building also has a new 24-hour child care centre with 60 spaces. We are building more housing across BC, including more spaces for women and children in vulnerable situations. 👉🏾 news.gov.bc.ca/30713
