These thought-provoking stanzas offer a call to action for each one of us to consider how we affect future generations. —Leona Prince and Gabrielle Prince in "Be a Good Ancestor" @orcabook #quoteoftheday #kidlit

This is horrible. I'm so sorry this happened to Spencer. There is NO place for homophobia or any kind of hate in BC. Let’s all #StandWithSpencer and against those who spread violence and hate.
A 19 y/o man in recovering after being attacked at a Nanaimo house party, and says he was targeted for being gay. The @VIUniversity Interior Design student is so scared by what happened he’s moving away: “It literally traumatized me…that I could be beaten up for being myself.”

A powerful observation on the role leaders play in diversity work – at Okanagan (Part) 1, British Columbia
In my experience, the equity problem usually is not that a school hasn't found the right strategy or initiative to "close" a disparity, but that leaders have skipped the step of deeply understanding why the disparity exists, guaranteeing our inability to eliminate it. (1/2)

It's been two years since the signing of the CASA with the @BCGreens, and I'm proud of what we've been able to accomplish, from getting big money out of #bcpoli to our #CleanBC plan. There is still much to do, and it will take time, but we will make progress by working together.
