Bringbackcopian - Writing to @JinnySims. I wrote to Jinny Sims. On July 4, 2014:. I looked up the NDP shadow cabinet and saw that you are the Employment and Social Development critics. I am sending along a link to Carol Goar's article from today about the cuts to the adult literacy database at Copian because she has collected a lot of interesting information there: http:/ www.thestar.com/opinion/commentary/2014/07/03/mainstay of canadas literacy movement topples goar.html.

Storytelling is important, whether it's a ruddy and robust town crier or Homer (I mean the Greek one but the other one counts too). The manner in which we receive information can affect us as much as the information itself. Russell Brand: the Sun on Sunday lied about me. The medium is the message.

It was a hoax. Parents need to stop raising their children on the principles that they must beat everyone in their class, that their school needs to rise up the league tables, or for their country to defeat every other nation on Earth in global education rankings. We need to stop pushing our kids. By Tanith Carey,. By Brigid Hayes that explain how this process works in Canada. At the national level, government is focused on results, not necessarily educators or practice. It seems more important to sh...

Your City, My City. I was hesitant to read the Maclean's article, Welcome to Winnipeg: Where Canada’s racism problem is at its worst. Because the headline seemed like click bait to me and I am not sure if Maclean's is the best source for lessons on racism - here. Full disclosure: my father was an editor at Maclean's from 1984 until 1996.). That said, the article focuses on the unspeakable violence and discrimination faced by Aboriginal people and is a harrowing read. When I watched this video. Shortly af...

Conviviality in the Face of Zombies. He Toronto Star has published an article about Canada's imaginary skills gap. In May and it just came to my attention today - finger on the pulse as usual :). The article is by Sachin Maharaj who is a graduate student at OISE (Ontario Institute for Studies in Education).

literacy enquirer: June 2014
http://literacyenquirer.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Without an announcement or any consultation, it appears that the federal government has decided to quietly collapse Canada’s national literacy and essential skills network. This is happening at the same time as community literacy programs across Canada experience a seismic shift and uncertainty of sustained operations, while millions of dollars in federal funding is being effectively diverted from federal-provincial Labour Market Agreements and redirected to the unproven Canada Job Grant program. 8220;Th...

thumb gusset
A knitting blog with excursions to the allotment and some family histories. I finished spinning my autumn-toned Blue Faced Leicester. Jill asked whether one can forecast what the colours are going to look like. Not really! You can make educated guesses about how long the stripes will be, but it seems as if there are lots of changes in density and brightness from unspun fibre, to yarn to knitted piece. I dont have enough of this for a pair of socks, but I think these gloves are going to be nice:. The smal...
