Every single empire in its official discourse has said that it is not like all the others, that its circumstances are special, that it has a mission to enlighten, civilize, bring order and democracy, and that it uses force only as a last resort.

My climate anxiety is bad.
We are all just expected to continue participating in a capitalist system while we are literally on the verge of a mass extinction within the next 100 years. This is not sustainable. This is TERRIFYING.

"Unequivocally, we won't touch the Greenbelt. Unlike other governments, who don't listen to people, I've heard it loud and clear, people don't want me touching the Greenbelt; we won't touch the Greenbelt. We'll figure out this housing mess, this housing crisis we're facing, in a different fashion.
To all my friends, I listened to you; you don't want me touching the Greenbelt; we won't touch the Greenbelt."

Today marks six years since the addition of #GenderIdentity to the Canadian Human Rights Act. On June 19, 2017, Bill C-16 was signed into law, making gender identity and gender expression prohibited grounds of discrimination.

Dr Svitlana Borysenko is a refugee from #Ukraine. She now lives in Poland where she was able to continue working as a doctor.
Integrating qualified #refugees in the health workforce contributes to achieving #HealthForAll.

In 1996, the Canadian Human Rights Act was amended to add #SexualOrientation as a protected category against discrimination. We stand with those who continue to face hate or discrimination because of who they love. ❤️🧡💛💚💙

I really want to stress how #CUPE education workers are overwhelmingly women and racialized and underpaid. #39kIsNotEnough
Sarah @ Open Minds retweeted
The word is "lied". When you say, again, and again, that you won't touch the Greenbelt, and then you strip Greenbelt Protection from 7,400 acres, it doesn't matter what else you do: you've lied. (1/?)
Sarah @ Open Minds retweeted
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if CUPE workers are essential to keeping schools open and kids in class…then they are also essential enough to receive a decent wage. I urge you: Support CUPE workers…and stand against starvation wages everywhere. #IStandWithCUPE
Sarah @ Open Minds retweeted
Some people are saying that @osbcucscso workers deserve only $39k because theirs is “unskilled” work. Here I am wondering exactly what “skills” are required to be Minister of Education. 🤷🏾♂️

BREAKING:
Man that earns in 3 months what a CUPE worker earns in a full year outraged at cost of living request.
Sarah @ Open Minds retweeted
Avg. rent in the city is 2500/month, which is 30K/year. Avg. CUPE Ed worker salary is 39K/year. Remember who to be mad at if schools are closed due to a strike: blame falls squarely on the man denying early childhood educators and custodians the right to basic decent living.
