Dr Wilton Littlechild, who has advocated for years 4 the Catholic Church to apologize; was a TRC Commissioner, he’s a survivor of residential schools and now uses a walker-it’s his 78th bday today. He danced in St Peters Square celebrating Pope Leo XIV apology which is momentous

How will diverting publicly-funded surgeries to for-profit enterprises reduce wait times, cost less & not impact public hospital staffing?

The best way to rapidly reduce the surgical backlog is to better utilize the public ORs we already have.

I get that Danielle Smith is taking heat for making strange comments about Nazis and posting links to antisemitic blogs. She should also, though, be roundly critiqued for promoting residential school denialism and extreme right-wing conspiracies that no children died.

Today is a fine Friday for Blaine Higgs to resign. #resignhiggs

If this team Higgs caucus was in opposition, they would call for the minster’s resignations. If you don’t vote this down and do the same, that’s the definition of hypocrisy. This policy is straight out of Florida and the Ron Desantis playbook. While you can afford rent,

Blaine Higgs Different day, same suck, Blaine. 🌈 Our love is so much bigger than ur hate 💋 I wish queerness for all ur descendants.

The attack in a Gender Studies class at University of Waterloo is heart-wrenching and chilling. Students, professors and staff deserve to feel safe and protected. My thoughts are with those impacted and my gratitude is with the first responders. kitchener.ctvnews.ca/1-arrested-3-t…

The fact that the stabbings at the University of Waterloo were hate-motivated is absolutely despicable. I strongly condemn this vile act. It is another reminder that we can never let misogynistic, anti-2SLGBTQI+ rhetoric escalate – because these words have real-life consequences.

This is horrifying. Yesterday's hate-motivated attack is another reminder that we can't allow hate-fuelled rhetoric to poison our country. Women and the 2SLGBTQIA+ community deserve safety.

More facts and common sense coming out of Saskatchewan. Many people are fed up with politicians and politics, but these politically motivated attacks on some of the most marginalized are a new low. What kind of society do we want to be? Does diversity matter? Will you stand up

As a teenager, my teachers kept a secret for me and, in many ways, they're the reason I'm here and even part-way intact. When our Principal told my parents about me without my consent, I was kicked out. This is how you increase youth homelessness — at the expense of their rights.

Warning ridiculous alert. In New Brunswick, it's disheartening to see discrimination against young members of the 2SLGBTQAI+ community. At 12, you can hunt, but not be free from prejudice. You are responsible enough to shoot a gun, but not responsible enough to be called by a

Hi Twitter Historians. Shot in the dark? I'm wondering if anyone can help me hunt down a photographed or digital copy of Royal African Company records relating to Sherbro Island (Sierra Leone) c. 1710 or any relevant collections? Esp. from the T/70 collection... Thanks!

Many of the insufferable, chest-pumping Canada Day articles this week briefly referred to residential schooling as a “dark chapter,” an unfortunate blip; this kind of minimization must stop! The IRS system ran from 1883 to 1997. That’s 114 years!

Why must entire nations, entire people groups become political scapegoats during election season? Puerto Rico is not a “floating island of garbage”. 🇵🇷 is “La Isla del Encanto”, a tropical paradise that has much to offer the world. Shame on Tony Hinchcliffe & his horrifying words
