@evanbrayshow This is incorrect. The issues they want addressed are workplace conditions and those conditions *are* getting worse. Stories from parents at work astound me as children’s needs aren’t being met. Our kids reading and math standards are dropping, something to concern us all.

Hey teachers and others. What’s the biggest class you’re seeing? On Reddit a high school student from Prince Albert says they started the semester with 42 students and since added 3 more. They have 8 - 2 person tables now with 5-6 students each. #skpoli

@SLangeneggerCBC Can you ask why he thinks his policy has support of the majority of parents? From their records, how many times has a parent complained re: withheld pronouns? Also when he stated parents have a right to know does he plan to extend this to birth control and abortion for 14+?

Israel is starving children to death. It’s hard to believe from a country many of us supported but there’s too many reports from too many good people to deny it. The WHO says they need 500 trucks of supplies per day and are getting 85. Canada needs to stand on the right side.

Children are being forcibly starved and dehydrated in Gaza. They do not have access to nutritious food and clean water. Aid is being withheld to enter. The conditions of unstable shelter, living in tents outside & crowding, have resulted in outbreaks of gastrointestinal disease.

@LSKinYYC @yowflier Yesterday Trudeau was called a wimp by conservatives because he wouldn't use the Emergency Measures Act. Today they're "absolutely outraged" when he does use measures in an emergency. If Liberals abuse this they'll get voted out. In the meantime, extraordinary times call for etc.

@RobNorrisSK This is garbage, Rob. You’re trying to trick voters that the city can just ignore provincial trade agreements that require equal treatment of out-of-province bids. Is this how you would govern? Because this is straight-up dishonest.

…hour supervision. This means that across the province every nurse, doctor, lab tech and food staffer who had school-age children would be simultaneously leaving work for a few hours to take care of kids. I have to think that was the incentive for govt to act.

Does anyone know if MLAs/lawyers Don Morgan and Gord Wyant voted in favour of the new Sask motion to illegally stop collecting the federal carbon tax? They both stayed absent rather than vote for the forced outing of trans kids (also illegal).

@GreyWay99 @SLangeneggerCBC Hi Mark - Salty or professional? Politicians try to run the clock when they might be held to account. Moe tried to give long, often elusive answers. Stefanie was never argumentative but respectful and firm in ensuring he answered the questions. She's an excellent interviewer.

It’s unfortunate that the producers didn’t withdraw from the category and that the Emmys didn’t have the common sense to stop this.

@natnewswatch NDP ridings tend to be urban. Conservative ridings tend to be rural. I’d guess that explains the difference in need/distribution of affordable housing funds.

@angie_rasmussen Don't deal with this garbage alone. @Usask has an obligation to protect employees; when they want professors to have public voices they need to do what's necessary so faculty aren't dealing with the consequences alone. (And sorry you have to deal with this garbage).

@steve_boots At the Back to Batoche festival two years ago, Métis had a lovely event. In a decorated memorial tent, you could write a note for lost ones and put it in a carved wooden box. Then a ceremony was held to bury it at Batoche cemetary. Over 100 names.
