I am beyond impressed with @MemorialU @MemorialUSci physics students today. They have completed day one of the @XanaduAI Canadian Quantum Cup competition, and are invited to day two for placing in the top 50% out of 16 participating teams. Thanks to @XanaduAI for hosting this!

I’m not an an expert on how universities allocate resources, but here we have a person teaching 500 students a year losing their job for budgetary reasons. I’d share the back-of-envelope math on how insane that is, but, again, I’m no expert…. 👀

I am utterly touched and humbled to have received the honorary doctorate degree (Doctor of Laws, honoris causa), from Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador at their convocation yesterday. I am also speechless because the sentiment of profound gratitude, which is continuously twirling in the innermost layer of my heart, is beyond words. I'm equally honoured that there are people and their organizations who recognize the power of physical movement, value of bringing people together through art, need of building cross-cultural bridges, and importance of messages of joy, hope, and positivity for healing and growing. Lastly, I am delighted that the efforts to include the natural environment of the Yukon Territory, frozen/snowy landscapes of northern Canada, and frigid/subzero temperatures, which are usually backdrops/elements of my videos, also received deep appreciation. Thanks, @MemorialU, dear people of Newfoundland and Labrador, all Canadians, and the universe, for this pure love 🙏🏽❤️ #MUNgrad2023 #MUNgrad

There are consequences for pretendians. It's time #pretendians held themselves to account & institutions proactively address pretendian problem instead of being dragged through media. #cdnpoli atlantic.ctvnews.ca/memorial…

@MemorialU will have to pay $650k salary, plus $270k administrative leave, plus $135k pension benefits (ballpark guess) for a sum total of $1,080,000 to get rid of Vianne Timmons. Quite a success story. Just lie to get a position of power then get fired to capitalize on it..
