I dabble in the field of education. I like to talk politics, sports and film (not necessarily in that order). Detoxing from the bird site from hell.

I know you’re super busy getting signatures for Forever Canada, but it would be great to see you out at the Leg on Thursday for perhaps the most important teacher rally ever. It would be great to see some old PC’s representing!

Friendly reminder to use your library card. Even if you don’t have time to read, rent a free audio book to keep them going. If you don’t already have one, get a library card. 😊

Hello folks. Jim Cuddy here. Due to our troubles with our neighbours in The States, I was inspired to write a little song. It’s called “We Used to Be the Best of Friends”. youtu.be/b5jgJZWG7aY?...

What would have happened if Farris had attended Ben Stein’s class‽ If that class had done their homework on the Smoot-Hawley Tariffs‽ Anyone? Anyone?
How should Canada respond to US coercion? I argue it's time to take the initiative.

So, here I am. I am making the jump from the hell site. Looking forward to the good discussion and community that was once part of the bird app.
