Looking forward to this (free) webinar tomorrow.

A good thing to listen to on this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

This year's National Truth & Reconciliation Day marks a big milestone: This school year’s graduating class will be the first in BC to complete their K–12 public education with the history of Indian Residential Schools fully integrated into their curriculum. Continue your education: nctr.ca

September 30th is National Day for Truth & Reconciliation. As we approach this day, how can we avoid symbolic performances of reconciliation and equip ourselves to work toward transformative change? Check out these resources and more on our website: yellowheadinstitute.org. Linked in bio.

BC is a low-tax province. Canada’s lowest personal income taxes for income up to $150,000; sales tax that provincially ranks 3rd-lowest; middle-ranked corporate tax rates. Our deficit stems from deliberate policy choices that cut revenues says @iglikaivanova.bsky.social.

Fantastic weekend reading, curtesy of my favorite local bookshop. Only halfway through, but highly recommend.

Public services aren’t “bailouts”—they’re infrastructure. Rural mail and home delivery are services we depend on, not corporate handouts. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
