Parents and teachers, we need to act! Our kids deserve better. Send a letter to BC government: commit to better classroom conditions. app.sosha.ai/s/Exd7JFjv

Teachers know what kids need – more time, more support, and more resources. Add your voice and tell government it’s time to deliver on better classroom conditions. share.nwmd.social/s/cq6iL7ol #bcpoli #bced

From ERs to factory floors, workers power Canada's economy. But too many of us are struggling. It's time our politicians take real action on housing, jobs, & public services. share.canadianlabour.ca/s/HeADaH2s

The lightning-fast deal reached after CUPE flight attendants courageously defied the back-to-work order proves the point: Air Canada had zero incentive to negotiate seriously while counting on federal intervention to steamroll workers' rights. @cupescfp.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Last day of school! BC teachers showed up every day despite underfunding & rising pressures. Now it’s time to rest. In September, we organize, mobilize & fight for the schools our students deserve. ✊ #bced #bctf #UnionStrong #ProtectPublicEducation

Thank you #bced parents for this important advocacy at the Legislature. Our students, your children, deserve better than the funding levels coming out of #bcpoli that are forcing districts to make cuts. cheknews.ca/our-future-d...

Many students today are really struggling with anxiety and other mental health challenges. They need more support from #bcpoli. Children and youth deserve access to school counsellors when they need it and where they're at - which is at their own #bced school. youtu.be/F1IZzcCN8RQ?...

Today, we remember the workers who died, were injured or became ill as a result of their job.  Everyone has a right to come home at the end of the day. We will continue to work toward that goal in partnership with workers, the labour movement and employers.

Both Pierre Poilievre and Mark Carney have promised a tax cut to the lowest income bracket if they emerge victorious in Canada’s federal election, but are tax cuts really the answer to the affordability crisis? Journalist Renée Sylvestre-Williams explores: thewalrus.ca/tax-cuts-election/

“This is not a budget that has splashy new announcements,” Finance Minister Brenda Bailey said Tuesday. “This is about protecting core services like health care and education.”

Fascinating read on the increased banning of books particularly in school libraries. "The new censorship consensus ... the school library is a microcosm of the ideal society, and books are levers of social engineering"

When students are struggling with their mental health, a school counsellor can be a critical resource. Statistics show that people in BC recognize how important it is for all students to have access to one in their school. See what else people want to see in BC schools: bit.ly/3QnLfXl #BCed #BCpoli

A recent poll shows British Columbians are overwhelmingly in support of the promise made by the BC NDP to put an education assistant in every primary classroom. See what else people are saying about BC schools: bit.ly/3QnLfXl
