It seems the @VSB39 only has one trustee willing to do the work to support students and those who teach and support them. Thank you @reddyforchange! #vanpoli (and shame on the others).

Yes, exactly. Might I suggest (instead) that trustees bring out their political differences through open and honest debate in public meetings. Because…this is what democracy looks like! 📢

As a Vancouver parent -- we are so lucky to have @reddyforchange on our school board, doing the work to support our kids and their teachers.

Our Vancouver School Board handles a big budget of ~$600 million for the year 2024/25. This money should be used to confront the most pressing challenges at our schools, but sadly, that’s not happening under ABC leadership. #vanpoli #bced
More buses, more frequent public transit, more nonmarket and market apartments with no parking requirements!

This is a huge issue! #bced
ABC’s dismissal of meaningful improvements to education in our district is disappointing. Our work is not over! We must speak up about our needs in the school system and ensure that each student is getting the support they deserve.👇🏾
Asking for the budget to replace absent teachers on their first day of being away would support students more consistently, minimize gaps in learning, prevent other teaching staff from being displaced and support staff morale. The ABC-dominated board voted against this motion.👇🏾
Process is everything. Last night, my budget item to immediately address staffing shortages at the #VSB was voted down by the ABC-dominated board, debate was stifled & the content of my motion was dismissed. Concerns raised by our largest employee groups were ignored.👇🏾
I hear concerns about staff shortages that increase gaps in learning support. Counsellors, resource teachers, specialist teachers, & support staff are pulled from their work to cover unfilled absences. The support these teachers provide is pulled from students who need it.👇🏾
dwindling classroom supplies that have not had monetary increases in 14 years. I brought forward an item from the Secondary Teachers’ Association asking that the supply budget be increased. It failed. The ABC-dominated board voted against increasing school supplies for kids.👇🏾
Meanwhile trustee @reddyforchange has brought forward a motion to increase funding for consumable supplies (e.g., science lab equipment) and community field trips. Her motion is not a distraction. It could make a real difference. 🔬🧪🥼

@RoryAEBrown @PreetiFaridkot It’s so disheartening to see how non-functional @Vote4ABC trustees have made the @VSB39 and its governance and processes. @victoriajungvan @PreetiFaridkot #vanpoli
@PreetiFaridkot @PreetiFaridkot ad hominem attacks aren’t a good look. ABC trustees have dithered away opportunities to make things better for students again and again. ABC trustees approved a #vsb budget process that restricted public input to an astonishing level #vanpoli
Yes, exactly. Might I suggest (instead) that trustees bring out their political differences through open and honest debate in public meetings. Because…this is what democracy looks like! 📢
Preeti, you're an elected official; what you do you mean by "leave politics behind" and do you understand the hypocrisy of your next tweet cheering on a needless ABC policy? 🙄

2/2 It's disheartening to witness the potential of our board collective, yet your absence from meetings is conspicuous. We can achieve many things together if we leave politics behind & work as a board. It’s essential to consider why we were elected &the responsibilities we hold.
dwindling classroom supplies that have not had monetary increases in 14 years. I brought forward an item from the Secondary Teachers’ Association asking that the supply budget be increased. It failed. The ABC-dominated board voted against increasing school supplies for kids.👇🏾

Paging Vancouver council! @Vote4ABC @OneCityVan Look at Paris: time for Vancouver to show more vision on prioritizing pedestrian spaces and cycling.
REMINDER: Paris has released a new 5-Year Pedestrian Plan! - 300 million € to be invested by 2026 - 100 new hectares of pedestrian space - 100 more “streets for kids” - Focus on 0 pedestrian deaths #VisionZero - Longer pedestrian cross times geared to seniors HT @David_Belliard
The sheer amount of creativity and joy that North American planning eliminates, with its strict separation of uses. We should let people do things. Homes above shops. Shops next to homes. Homes on top of homes. People instead of cars.
Worldly Wednesday 🌏 Any 2-story rowhouse in Tokyo, the owner can operate a restaurant, boutique, or small workshop on the ground floor. That gives the city an incredible supply of potential unique microspaces that are affordable for entrepreneurs. Ottawa should legalize this.
We will examine the relevance and barriers for Indigenous people concerning issues in the labour movement and groups will brainstorm ways in what is learned, and how it can be used in the workplace to work towards Reconciliation.
This course will examine the history, knowledge, and teachings from an Indigenous lens; the impact of colonization, the inter-generational impacts of the Residential School system, the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and an overview of current Aboriginal issues.
Today I was joined by leaders form the Filipino-Canadian community at the @BCLegislature to officially proclaim April 27th as #LapuLapuDay.It is with tremendous pride that we took a moment to honour the legacy of our national hero. A true symbol of resistance & resilience
Questions on these housing changes in #Vancouver? Find the full city staff presentation here: council.vancouver.ca/20240423/docum… The report here: council.vancouver.ca/20240423/docum… Or ask below and I (or other smart housing folks) will do our best to answer! #VanPoli #BCPoli #HomesForPeople 2/2
New Provincial housing legislation means more homes for people in #Vancouver, in EVERY neighbourhood. But our #multiplex density is still lower than the provincial site standards. So I'm glad Council supported my move to align with those prov standards. (👀👇🏽 great maps!) 1/2
Hate has no place. This is totally unacceptable. We must all stand together against antisemitism and all forms of racism, bigotry, and discrimination.
This is vile and disgusting. Antisemitism has no place here, and no matter your position on the horrific events in Israel and Gaza, we should all stand together against these clear acts of antisemitism and hate. None of us are safe until all of us are safe.

This photo is from a bus shelter near @cityofcoquitlam city hall. The hate is real. Antisemitism is now normalized and out in the open in British Columbia. The time for words is over, we need action. 1/2
This is heartbreaking and horrifying. Our streets should be safer for everyone. That means making decisions and investments - in infrastructure, automated speed enforcement, and more - that MAKE our streets safer for everyone. Not just hopes and prayers. vancouversun.com/news/local-new…
@LennyNanZhou From re-reading @christineeboyle's motion it would have brought a lot more than 4-plexes, including: affordable housing, co-ops, shops, services, and infrastructure updates. 4-plexes is a nice start but the city could have done much, much more, and chose not to.
