Why is this just a day? When does it make sense to move on when students don’t have the foundations? This reminds me of people who talk about “covering the curriculum” and prioritize that over teaching kids.

“Ontario has been underfunding education systematically for years, while accusing school boards of failing to balance budgets. Real government funding per student fell by $1,500 per student between 2018 and 2024, resulting in 5,000 fewer educators.” #OntEd

Ontario’s plan to eliminate school boards is anti-democratic - CCPA

It seems that every few years, another province toys with the idea of eliminating school boards—those pesky thorns of local democracy that stick in the side of governments flush with neoliberal fantas...

We have schools in #OntEd with condemned ventilation systems, electrical issues, leaking rooftops, and crumbling walls. Parents of children with special needs are being asked to keep their kids home due to a lack of special education staff. Bill 33 does nothing to solve this.

Premier Doug Ford &
Education Minister Paul Calandra:
¡ Supervision isn't the solution - proper funding is!

I just had a first. In my citation alerts, I was cited for an article that does not exist. The article includes the name of co-authors I have written with before, but on a project that I have written about, but not with these authors.

I for one am a very happy customer. I like buying local, I like that the stories reflect our Canadian context and people, I love the characters and look forward to what you do next. I am spreading the word through my #Bookclub recommendation. Thrilled to see this press carve out something new!

2 years ago today I launched ReBound Press and SHADOW PLAY! Retail operations have two years, generally, to stay in business so we are right at that tipping point ... Whether this business thrives or not, will depend on book sales!

I have an idea for you… and it could pick up one of your forensic experts who does collision reconstruction… :)

I wondered if Orphan x was a real reference. Will have to look it up. And yes, inhaled is an accurate description. It is baseball season so I read while Bill is engrossed in the Jays’ spectacular season! Can’t wait for your next one!

Ok @peggyblair.bsky.social … I just finished Double Vision. So good! Now I will be waiting for the next one. There are so many things to follow up on and you have hooked me on your characters! On to The Wrecking Game!

I have read Shadow Play! Must have launched right into the next without commenting- which speaks volumes about their ability to pique my curiosity! My grandson helpfully rearranged them all after your careful packing!

@peggyblair.bsky.social I have just finished The Bone Finder! I am not only enjoying the stories but I am learning so much about the depth of challenges faced by our Indigenous people. You do such a wonderful job weaving bits of history throughout. Onto the next! #Canadianauthor #BookSky

In UMBRELLA MAN, Russian FSB agent Slava Kadun is sent to Havana to warn the Castro government about a planned CIA attempt on Castro's life, but in a world of double agents, is Slava a Trojan horse? Order your copy from Reboundpress.com or on Kobo (not sold in bookstores)!

Yes- I am hooked. I feel like the things you are exploring hint at what we can’t know in terms of the way the world actually works and makes it even more intriguing. Especially in these times!

🇨🇦 Dr. Kathy Hibbert @kathyhibbert.bsky.social · 16d

@peggyblair.bsky.social It is getting difficult to concentrate on work when I just want to get back to reading. Just finished Umbrella Man. Loved Slava- it is such a page turner! On to the next one! #read #Canadian #authors

I love that you stood your ground and found a way to publish Charlie Pike’s story and keep it in Canada. We need more feisty women everywhere! It is such a treat to read about our stories- sad as they may be sometimes. And to see our country through the eyes of the foreign visitors like Ramirez!

It was such a joy to read! It’s pouring rain here now so I think I need to start the next one.

@peggyblair.bsky.social I have now finished another and they just keep getting better. I am definitely recommending these to my bookclub this year. I have already talked about them and they are excited about reading #Canadian #authors! So good

Charlie Pike is sent home to Manomin Bay in Northwestern Ontario to look into a very old cold case; he helps the OPP investigate a fatal MVA where he finds an injured dog ... but is it a motor vehicle accident or a homicide? Order your copy direct from reboundpress.com!

@peggyblair.bsky.social I just finished Capital Crimes and am excited to dig into the next one. I have really enjoyed getting to know these characters! So happy to have found you here and to be able to read such great Canadian crime writing!
