I wrote a letter to @yyCBEdu Trustees about Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in #yyc’s #CBE schools. Why aren’t we using all the available #IAQ tools: specifically, portable HEPA filters?

As an #EPSB Trustee and a #yegvote #yegcc candidate, I can't convey how incredibly frustrating this stupid, pointless, powerless referendum on equalization question is: a pointless distraction from Kenney's failures on jobs, economy, pipelines.
#EPSB and #CBE students receive fewer dollars per capita than any other school board in Alberta because of the failed #WMA brought in by the UCP.

I had asked @EthzemaLeader the following question after his controversial/deliberate remark against #IslamicBanking/#InterestFreeBanking (as it is called here in #Ethiopia). I have today watched another video of him where he tried to "Clarify" but continued to insult us more.

Surgeons, and especially cancer surgeons, were renowned for their technical prowess, and their sheer bravado – "wherever the cancer, however advanced, I will take it out". So, our surgeon-researcher was ridiculed for even attempting clinical research

@usedgov On "correspondece course" - p. 41:
"The most significant change made to the definition of “correspondence course” in these regulations is the removal of the concept of self-pacing, which is not vital to the distinction between correspondence courses and distance education." 2/x
@usedgov For distance education definition...not emergency enactment, so the definition goes into effect on July 1, 2021.
However, institutions have the option of early adoption of this definition prior to that date. 3/x
