We will continue to post occasional updates on X. But the toxicity and bad faith interactions make this space a sad shell of what it used to be. We will be moving our engagement to Bluesky. #Bced and #bcpoli media, teachers, and others... follow us there. bctf.bsky.social/

With great confidence, the BCTF offers its wholehearted endorsement of @SussanneRS as president and @HKailley75 as secretary-treasurer of the @bcfed. Together, they have proven themselves to be leaders who understand the value and impact of the labour movement. #BCFED #BCpoli

After the TRC report was released, he said: “We have described for you a mountain. We have shown you the path to the top. We call upon you to do the climbing.”

Murray Sinclair’s legacy of justice-seeking and truth-telling offers a powerful example to us all of leadership with dignity, humility, and grace. We will continue to teach his life lessons of justice and truth before reconciliation. 3/3
