A new @policyalternatives.ca analysis provides a breakdown of actual class sizes for grades 4 to 8 across Ontario - all boards and all schools.
Nearly 1,100 classes have more than 30 students!
Ontario students need class-size caps, not an EQAO review

As Iranians are being bombed, their government has cut off their internet and airs televised threats. Does this sound like a government that cares for its people? (No, that doesn’t mean war is good. That’s a different point that I am not making)
It made me happy to see my dear friend @brittlestar.com reading my magazine and sharing his reaction.

#LunarEclipse FAQ:
Q: Is it safe to look at?
A: Absolutely! Unlike a solar eclipse, there's no UNsafe time to look at a lunar eclipse.
Q: Do I need a telescope?
A: Nope! Best view is with naked eye. Just look up!
Q: Does the eclipse portend terror & doom?
A: Not at all! The news has that covered.
Poilievre Advisor: Okay, just be cool out there and remember to clarify when referencing Robin Hood that you don’t mean the one that everybody knows
Mumps.

Gonna have another convo with the great @kavehmd.bsky.social on all things Iran tomorrow. What are you curious about? What would you like to hear more about from two diaspora Iranians?
Ever hopeful.
So he's offering to get Canada involved in advance? (Again, this is would be entirely about complicity in an illegal war to protect authoritarian trade partners.)

A look back at Psychology Month and a look forward for Psychology
The theme of #PsychologyMonth 2026 was #ThisIsPsychology . It highlighted the ways psychology has something to contribute and something to say about most every issue that affects Canadians, big and small.
"If we're going to be making social policy that affects tens of thousands of Albertans, it should be based on evidence, and it should be evidence that's available to all of us."

There's a Samsung phone ad where people take a photo of themselves at a night party, then add their dog and make the night into day.
Why even take that photo? What is the point of recording your fake life?

The 'prison' of toxic masculinity www.cbc.ca/radio/thecur...
Me: genuine problem with men’s health. "The manosphere presents itself as a solution [but] that solution is hyper masculinity, which is the exact wrong thing that we need.”
Great speaking with @mattgalloway.bsky.social on CBC about issue
there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
