Can someone explain to me how problems with the production of vaccines is any one government's fault? I don't get it. The contracts were signed. Great. Did people think that 2 billion doses were just going to get made right away with no hiccups at all? Do people blame govt's?

Highly recommended read for those who are interested in history and its teaching. A non-polemical, common sense approach from @trilbykent . We need more history education, not less.

1. I love how you call her by her first name when she is a former prime minister. 2. I love how you then call her a "poser"-- see point #1 3. You get Ms. Campbell's party affiliation wrong. 4. This is what is wrong with civil debate on twitter-- it kind of does not exist.

Congratulations to @dundurnpress founder Kirk Howard for his appointment to the Order of Canada. Few have done more to promote Canadian history, politics and culture in the publishing industry. I am grateful to him.

I'm thinking of doing an online tutorial for kids about how to load a dishwasher properly. You know, so they don't put the plates where the bowls go, load it from back to front in some sort of order. Interested?

Headline writers: "both sides of the aisle" is an American expression. We talk about "both sides of the floor" or "both sides of the House." Do better, @globeandmail . I'm sure @JohnIbbitson shuddered when he saw this headline (writers don't write them)

With 35 in an online course, it's clear this is about saving money, not giving students an interesting option that allows for flexibility.

A huge amount of time is spent corralling students to get their work in. It's like herding cats at times. These courses work best for self selected students who are motivated to learn this way.

Would be better if his name was spelled correctly. The kid in short pants who wrote this tweet obviously didn't take his Canadian history studies very seriously.
