4/4 Canadian families with full-time careers are having to line up at food banks for the first time @JustinTrudeau. Why are you allowing this to go on? Rationale? I’ll be fully transparent, we are all feeling betrayed. - A genuinely mystified and heartbroken Canadian solo mum

3/4 @JustinTrudeau, you spoke of promises that your government would be doing something about these grocery monopolies - but it’s been over a year since you last promised to look into it, and nothing has changed. You’re still talking about it. Why aren’t you DOING anything ?

2/4 People cannot afford to purchase their family’s weekly grocery lists anymore. Prices are completely obscene— triple or more than from the US (or other countries). It’s not supply chain anymore. It’s organized monopolies vindictively price gouging Canadians.

And isn’t #MothersDay also the best day to remind us there are still so many ways in which the gender equity battle continues. This ad spot is over a DECADE old. 2014. If it still resonates with you, the struggle is still real. #LikeAGirl 📺

I took my grade 7 'surrogate' nephew to an HDSB post-secondary pathways information fair at Sheridan College today. They are creative, outgoing, musical, and idealistic—my nephew.

Guess who made a special appearance at Open House! Bruno, our favourite Bruin, was spotted spreading cheer and welcoming future students. Always a delight to see Bruno join the excitement! 🐻💙

Leaders can unintentionally cascade a broader org culture of anxiety perpetuating false urgency by neglecting to question status quos. Anxiety cascades from higher levels. Unpacking “urgency” helps our teams remain successful—and—psychologically healthier.

The headwinds of false urgency can be intense. But they also foster a reactive culture. If everything is urgent, there’s little opportunity for creative and deep work, which tends to flourish only...

Devastating. 😞 “Much of Lahaina, a touristic and economic hub of 9,000 people, has been destroyed and hundreds of families displaced, Hawaii Gov. Josh Green said. "We have no more Lahaina. It’s gone," Mark Stefl told CNN.”

It's #IndigenousPeoplesDay. #IndigenousWomen are keepers of scientific, environmental, and cultural knowledge. They also face violence and discrimination. Their right to self-determination and ancestral lands is key to preserving traditional knowledge. #WeAreIndigenous
