@iatse168.bsky.social friends. This is the most important mail you'll get this year. We won't tell you who to vote for, but we encourage you to do so. In these days, with challenges inside the country, and threats from outside, proving your support for Canada by getting out and voting is vital.

For @iatse168.bsky.social today isn't just the 1st day of spring, it is World Theatre Day for Youth & Children, a recognition of the power of theatre to allow children to grow, dream & imagine. Showing children arts makes them more aware adults. In our challenged times, this is more vital than ever.

@iatse168.bsky.social wishes Merry Christmas & Happy Hanukkah to our friends, followers, families & foes.
When things are literally dark & cold, it is vital to take the time to care & work hard to bring light into the world.
We can make the world a better place.
Stay warm, and stay safe.

@iatse168.bsky.social was honoured to have crew working on yesterday's state funeral for #JohnHorgan. As proud #Union workers, we saw John from Langford, and we know he saw us. We take from our work on his memorial the reminder that we can make a better place for everyone if we care to care.

@iatse168.bsky.social is pleased a discussion around venue spaces and costs in the Capital Region is back, and glad crew costs did not get scapegoated.
We have ideas on what can help, and are always open to chats on all topics arts related. Thanks to @timescolonist.bsky.social for the article.

Today is The National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. A day to remind us all that we still live in a society where women are not entirely safe.
Every day @iatse168.bsky.social commits to do more. Things are still not equal and equitable, and we can't just shake it off.

Hey @iatse168.bsky.social !
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers could use some support, moral and otherwise, on their picket lines. Drop by for a chat, bring some coffees with you, and learn about their issues, which could become ours. Together we are stronger, separate we are broken.
