I remember being around five when my mother first explained residential schools to me and that my stepfather had been imprisoned at one as a child; possibly five, I never got the precise ages from him. Colonial violence is generational and ongoing and its targets both the same and expanding.
my son is five, same age as Liam Ramos. you don't need to have a child the same age to be fucking horrified by the violence we are doing (and HAVE BEEN doing) upon immigrant children in this nation. but that he keeps asking for his spidey backpack is the kind of detail that rips my heart in two.

This is really big. IAQ in Canada is totally uncoordinated. We also learned today that Health Canada will be relseasing recommendations for school IAQ. A document for public consultation is coming in April or May 2026. /3

If you admire Minnesotans and are worried about this kind of violence coming to your community, the best way to prepare is to start building networks. Get to know your neighbours.

People should know that the city of Halifax @hfxgov.bsky.social did not open any warming centres this weekend. We are getting arctic winds, and an incoming snowstorm. It's cold enough out there to kill people experiencing homelessness. 1/4
