Love spending time outdoors with my wife and two girls, learning and teaching about our environment and how to protect it, reading about all fields of science.

What do CAs do? First & foremost, CAs protect ppl & property from natural hazards like #floods, #erosion & #landslides by directing devt away from floodplains, wetlands, unstable slopes etc & reviewing planning applications to ensure devts aren’t adding risks downstream.🧵 1/14

Doug Ford is out to destroy the places we love, the land that feeds us and protects us, so a handful of rich land speculators can make billion$. And we the people of Ontario will pay the price. It’s disgusting, and we have to stop him. #onpoli

I am not an Ontarian, or a teacher, or an education assistant, but I have a perspective on the Ford government’s “Keeping Students in Schools Act”. I was Minister of Education in Alberta for 7 years, including the time the Charter was developed and enacted. #onted #onpoli

I have no idea what school will be like (or if it will happen at all) on Friday or into next week. As a parent, that's difficult. But make no mistake. This is not CUPE's fault. This is on the Ford government. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
