November 7 marked International Inuit Day, a time to recognize, celebrate and honour the rich culture, profound resilience, and enduring contributions of Inuit communities across the globe, with a special focus on Canada’s Inuit Nunangat—the traditional homeland encompassing the Arctic regions of Nunavut, Nunavik (Northern Quebec), Nunatsiavut (Northern Labrador), and the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (Northwest Territories).

This day recognizes the vital role #Inuit play in shaping the nation’s identity, preserving the delicate Arctic ecosystem, and safeguarding ancestral traditions, language, and knowledge systems passed down through generations.

According to a new poll from Liaison Strategies, the majority of Ontarians disapprove of the Ford government's handling of public education and think the public system has deteriorated under his leadership. "Even some Conservative voters are displeased: 25% said they disapproved of Ford’s #onted policies."

Anyone surprised?

Students, parents at TDSB school raise alarm over funding: ‘Sometimes there is soap, but mostly not’

@ETFOpresident David Mastin said parents, like educators, “realize the impact of the cuts this government has imposed. Any time that our members see that they are not alone in this struggle, that’s important.” #onted #onpoli
