Yesterday, we encouraged students and staff to wear pink for Pink Shirt Day 💗 We also asked folks to share their participation with us and the results were remarkable! Visit our website for some Pink Shirt Day 2022 moments from our HWDSB community: hwdsb.on.ca/blog/pink-shirt-…

👚 FYI, tomorrow is #PinkShirtDay which is meant to promote anti-bullying. 👚 #DayOfPink is on April 13, and is specifically intended to combat homophobia and transphobia. 👚 Both are great days to talk about the power each of us have to intervene & include.

It's wild we accept weather predictions from a Groundhog, but deny evidence on vaccines from scientists. #GroundhogDay

We've made this documentary free online during social isolation. This film shares difficult and traumatic stories of residential school Survivors behind pieces that make up this artwork, so please watch and share with gentleness. @CMHR_News #MediaOneinc humanrights.ca/story/picking…

Thank you!
For too long, classrooms have prioritized content over experience. The experience of learning mathematics should illuminate opportunities for liberation. Classrooms as spaces of curiosity, joy and innovation are classrooms all students and teachers deserve. @gcouros #mtbos

Blue dots are household incomes over $100,000/year. Green polygons are high EQAO scores in math. What do you notice? What do you wonder? Thanks @lukemteacher for the maps. #onted

Today I asked for the unanimous consent of the legislature to condemn all forms of Islamophobia and to reaffirm support for the Anti-Racism Directorate. @Fordnation's government said NO. #onpoli #SarbTO

You can be at a vigil against Islamophobia one day and apparently block a motion for unanimous consent to condemn all forms of Islamophobia the next day. When people show you who they are, ✨believe them✨.
