At tonight’s “consultation”…

When a high school kid tried to raise concerns about the teachers strike, Bruce McAllister cut the kids mic and then suggested his parents should have beaten him more.

Listen to the clip yourself…

It’s…

Telling.

A colleague spilled a bottle of water into my computer on Friday. This is the damage by today despite pulling it apart to dry it out as much as was feasible and blowing a fan at it all weekend. Repair cost $490 from a local electronics tech vs upwards of $800 for a new logic board from apple. 😖

It’s still amazing to me that we’ve basically let ourselves be tricked into buying that THIS is what “freedom” looks like. #CarDependency

WELL. Looks like “unpaid work” isn’t fully over for Air Canada flight attendants after all.

New details are coming out that suggest flight attendants will only be paid at 50% of their hourly rate for pre-take off tasks.

Air Canada, pay your workers!!

The Air Canada strike is a huge deal in so many ways — and lots of them should matter to every single working Canadian.  The flight attendants are ignoring a back to work order. Canadians unions are behind them. The CUPE National President is prepared to go to jail.

Let's talk about it:

If anyone has experience with refinishing formerly oiled wood surfaces please send advice!

Elsewhere the original (oil?) interior finish is still there - looks like English Chestnut stain like I used on the kitchen window. But if it is oil I may need to remove it before refinishing, though sanding may take care of that. Maybe.

Did some paint stripping today. First sash of four stripped outside with my heat gun. Took about 3 hours. I may try chemical Peel Away 1 on the next one. The meeting rail is rough and may need some epoxy filler.

What Eisenhower said over 70 years ago is even more true today.

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.”

I spent the last few days reaching out to advocates, experts and the government about Prime Minister Mark Carney’s new border bill, Bill C-2.

What I learned was…not reassuring.

In fact, advocates are warning it could create a framework for Trump-style mass deportations -- and more:
