Thank you Council for Indigenous Education in Manitoba for hosting an excellent day of learning! I loved keynote speakers @TashaSpillett and Michael Redhead Champagne, as well as our session about Land based learning with Marika Schalla. Looking forward to incorporating today’s learning into my classroom!

I thought it was an urban myth. My kid got edibles in their candy bag tonight. Check your kids’ candy!!!!!

Investigators have learned that the THC edibles were packaged along with regular full-size chocolate bars inside individual zipped sandwich bags. Anyone with information or to make a report is asked to contact the Major Crimes Unit at 204-986-6219. winnipeg.ca/police/press/2…

I stand with Indigenous women - real ones. What is consistently noted in these major cases of Pretendians is how “White passing” these fraudsters are - because they are palatable to White institutions. Indigenous voices are consistently @ odds with power-hierarchical structures/2

and critique them therefore are not in those spaces. Watch for this in “Indigenization” efforts, because it is rampant - the end goal is complete assimilation of Indigenous Peoples and loss of our Sovereignty. Allyship is learning and unlearning together, rebuilding together.

November 8th is #IndigenousVeteransDay which commemorates and honours the sacrifices that First Nations, Metis, and Inuit soldiers made for all who share this land. The thread below contains some valuable learning resources 👇

Five years ago today. I helped Mila out of bed, slipped on her good-luck bunny socks and brought her into Boston Children’s Hospital to receive milasen for the very first time. This morning, I thought back through the years to that moment... this-is-today.com/photo-journal

My wife ⁦Mary Engel⁩ wrote an essay about grieving our son Henry that is sensitive, bold and above all brave, writing about the hardest thing a parent can ever do. The Week I Spent With Our Son Henry Before He Died: Essay today.com/parents/essay/…

I had a wonderful morning at École Tuxedo Park!! We talked about the three sisters (corn, beans and squash), we played Simon Says and we did some planting! Merci to the Kinders and Mme Hall!
