I am so sad to hear this. Jessie was direct, supportive, dedicated āone of my first connections when I became active in the labour movement & politics. I was always happy to see her because I knew she wouldnāt hold back in her opinions. Honoured to have crossed paths with her.

Over 50 people gathered in Kelowna to write postcards to their MPs today for #RainbowEquality. I just counted 179 cards. The big stack of 99 is for @TracyGrayKLC. We used the beautiful You Belong postcards from @AdvocacyCanada1

Since the @sd61schools Police Liaison Program issue has the most incredible legs, here is a long response from my perspective, an elementary teacher in the system, and union representative.
It starts by acknowledging that the issue has been a PR godsend for a struggling VicPD.

.@ClintJohnston7 says parents deserve answers to Qs like, "Is this the teacher my childās going to have all year? ... Is there a teacher for my childās class, or is it someone whoās backfilling just for a little while? And, sometimes ... is this teacher certified?ā #bcpoli #bced
A shortage of certified teachers in the province is reaching critical levels, according to the BC Teachers' Federation.

"It's quite often said that when an elder passes away, it's like you're losing a volume of an encyclopedia."
Specialist teachers like Keane are working hard to pass on Indigenous languages.
We need more teachers like Keane. #ItTakesATeacher #bced #bcpoli bit.ly/3Npqjza

Every sick day, training, exec mtg, etc was possible because teachers took turns over the years coming into my classroom, teaching my plan to children they had to build a rapport with in minutes. I hope I made their work as easy as they made mine. Thank you, today & every day!
