A good read today on Canada Day so we may reflect on the truth and how we may reconcile that which we cannot deny; make Canada a place we can ALL be proud of.
We seem to have a few new friends here! For those who haven't yet seen it, here is a copy of our booklet: An Overview of the Indian Residential School System. #EveryChildMatters

Yup!
It's #Pride Month in Canada. This quote from Morgan Freeman is so perfect. I can't help but think this also applies to the word #Islamophobia too. #cdnpoli

Lots to think about....
Here are some stories from survivors of academic streaming and systemic discrimination in education. And this is just the tip of the TIP of the iceberg. How many others DIDN'T make it through??? It's time we learn, unlearn, and relearn how we provide education to young people.
