@EmerikMehes @JBradshaw01 @PeelSchools Agree - as a parent who has had to engage with both platforms, Google Classroom wins, hands down - my kids prefer it as well.

@JBradshaw01 @PeelSchools Not to mention the difficulties students will have transitioning from a well known tool. Most in Ontario have navigated the entire pandemic using GC. If anything, this change will impede learning for many.

“Thou shalt use THIS VLE!” Seems like “voice and choice” isn’t a thing in @PeelSchools. Very disappointing. 🤦🏾‍♂️

@JBradshaw01 @CollinRugg When I first watched this, I assumed it WAS the US.

@CollinRugg Imagine seeing this and being jealous. 🤦🏾‍♂️

While America is focused on indoctrinating our children with rainbows & pronouns, our adversaries are training their children to be warriors. American world dominance is dwindling and the future is not pretty.

@birgitomo Is there someone there you trust that you can ask to let your colleagues know what happened and to give you the space you need when you return? People don’t always feel it’s appropriate to share personal information unless directed.

Any tips on going back to work after pregnancy loss? How do you handle colleagues who mean well and want to ask about the pregnancy? #pregnancyloss

29 years ago the world lost the great talent who was John Candy. What was your favourite John Candy performance? #JohnCandy #SCTV

@birgitomo Grief takes its own time. I hope you can give grief the time it needs. You don't 'have' to do anything until/if you're ready. Thinking of you and David.

We told the funeral home we'd be there today to start the process. I just couldn't do it, so I canceled the appointment. This type of grief is new to me. I don't know how to do it. Suggestions are welcome, please.

So let me get this straight: The City of Toronto was ok with the Toronto Police using $337,000 of our tax dollars to create a podcast barely anyone listened to...but wasn't ok using $400,000 to fund a 24/7 warming centre to prevent hypothermia & death? Where are our priorities?

14 months ago I had to evacuate from Oxford High Schol when a fifteen year old opened fire and killed four of my classmates and injured seven more. Tonight, I am sitting under my desk at Michigan State Univeristy, once again texting everyone “I love you” When will this end?

toronto twitter at its finest rn!!!!!

@lalani_safina You’re not alone.

Hmm. I saw CN Tower trending in Canada and my first thought was... did it fall down? did someone attack it? I'd have heard if that happened probably so ... why that was my first thought ? I guess it's the same when I see a celebrity name trending... did the person die?

@sbearbergman Helping them to be independent has been an ongoing invisible task: ordering for themselves in restaurants, walking to school by themselves, navigating public transit, doing laundry, preparing food - all the practical skills take way more work to teach than to do.

Parents of Twitter, help me make a list? What specific tasks of parenting weren’t really visible to you before you had children, e.g. “coordinating and sorting hand-me-downs,” or “choosing birthday gifts for parties your kid is invited to.” Please RT? I need a wide range. Thx!

@CDHsurvivor I was using it on the advice and with a prescription from my doctor. Just like you. Blaming women for acting on medical advice is all kinds of messed up. But I shouldn’t be surprised.

Reading this with my morning coffee made me feel like throwing up this morning: a thread. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

@CDHsurvivor Also, it seems like your real problem is with the FDA and not breastfeeding moms in Canada.

@CDHsurvivor This seems bizarrely hostile. I am sharing my experience and offering support to Moms who have been told ‘breast is best’ at any cost. I don’t know what you’re asking me to stop.

Moms, please love yourselves. Take care of yourselves. That is much more important to the health and happiness of your babies than anything else your body does or does not do. Sending out all the love.

So reading that the medication I was prescribed because I felt so absolutely compelled to breastfeed over any other thing I could provide my son, including a safe and healthy mom, broke my heart once again this morning, when I thought this was all very far behind me.
