Happened to catch the True Story documentary about truth and reconciliation last night, and it was so great to see, hear and learn from @waub again!

Read and loved the play script of 1939 by @janilauzon last summer. Finally saw a production today at @canadianstage and just wow. Wow. Powerfully performed

At some point, politicians can’t keep saying “this isn’t who we are as Canadians”.
Because 2024 is proving otherwise.

Update to yesterday’s parking lot remote key fob mystery. Not the end of the world, but rather car thieves using a signal jammer to prevent someone from properly locking their car?!? Person thinks their car is locked, goes in shopping, and thieves just open the door…

Riddle me this, interwebs: This morning I’m in a big box parking lot. After shopping, my remote key fob won’t work. Battery isn’t that old, and the car didn’t give any warnings like the last time the battery died…

But then a woman two spots over sees me struggling and comes over to ask if my remote key had died too. TOO! What are the odds? How about a third guy, a few spots down in the next row! Three cars at the same time that close together?!? Is the end of the world upon us?!?

Yes, there was a seven-hour time difference and a trans-Atlantic flight involved, but if you can explain how I got 27 standing hours in a single day without bending the laws of physics, you are smarter than I…

Another incredible session from @yadvashem educator Lori Gerson today, a timely lesson on teaching about current antisemitism. This session alone was worth the 9316 km journey to #YVeduConf

Two of my favourite @yadvashem Holocaust educators together, as Rabbi Moshe Cohn introduces Lori Gerson before her session on Avraham Peter, who went from ghetto boy to rocket man. #YVeduConf

One of some 150 educators from 39 countries present. Proud to represent @CdnSocYadVashem and learn more about the evolving context of Holocaust education

Didn’t get to share this on the podcast, but recently had the mom of a Jewish student say in an email “stay safe and please keep them safe.” I could feel her fear, and it haunts me #OnEdMentors

DEI can’t be about excluding and silencing. Spaces need to be carved out for everybody in your school. That includes Jewish students #OnEdMentors

I could listen to - and learn from - @michestace_ until the end of time and still have more to learn #OnEdMentors

The Holocaust is a layer of Judaism, not a pillar. It’s a significant part of Jewish history, but not the only thing to learn about Jews and Jewish culture #JewishHeritageMonth #onedmentors

Thank you @torontolibrary for a great evening with @waub in conversation with Rosanna Deerchild. @waub, thank you for your works, and more importantly, thank you for being an outstanding person. I am beyond honoured you remembered me 🙏

I just turned off the water in the shower and was about to step out, when I realized I hadn’t actually soaped up.
That’s teacher tired…

I live in Toronto, so it feels weird to be hearing ads from @ABDanielleSmith on local radio. Is this where we are now? Do other Premiers take out ads in other provinces? Outside of an election cycle?
Is it just me?!?

Can’t wait for the book, can’t wait to hear @waub read from it!
16 Sep 2023
When my new book’s out this fall I’ll have the privilege of reading from it throughout the land, including the below event in my current hometown of Sudbury. You can visit waub.ca/events to see where I’ll be in Canada. Many dates have been confirmed, with more TBA!
