@balkissoon The people, like this mother, who can deal with their own tragedy while still thinking about others who also suffer are amazing. I have a lot to learn.

@balkissoon I’m going to share this with everyone still trolling Nora. There’s room in our hearts and wallets for more compassion not less.

@balkissoon @connie_walker This recognition of imbalance, coming from one of the people most hurt & most affected by the Humboldt crash, is one of the most beautiful demonstrations of allyship I’ve seen. Thank you, deeply, Celeste Leray-Liecht. We can all learn from you.

@balkissoon I’m a little shocked that @macleans has called these types of comments ‘extraordinarily inappropriate’.

@balkissoon @NicDea48 Too much segregation in the world. When we all become one, things will be better.

@balkissoon It's called empathy. This is from someone who recognizes what it means to treat everyone with humanity, in spite of deep sorrow & loss, regardless of privilege. A lesson I hope many people will humble themselves to learn.

@balkissoon @CharlieAngusNDP Wish I could help. When you see how Canada can come together for Humboldt. I know we can do more. Could every southern community adopt/partner with one in the North!

@balkissoon If Humboldt mom wants to build bridges she could start by not referring to it as the "Colten Boushie trial". It was the trial of Gerald Stanley.
