We highly recommend the latest issue of Critical Education. It's a special issue called Defending and Strengthening Public Education as a Common Good and it features several articles by members of People for Public Education. ices.library.ubc.ca/index.php/crit…

My column tomorrow. Winnipeg’s Public Works recently rejected a proposal to make an important urban intersection safer. The priorities of commuter traffic again supersede the wishes of inner city residents and businesses for a safe, livable, and commercially prosperous community.

@ctvwinnipeg The motion was made in response to the Osborne Biz Strat Plan that identified the intersection as a key problem. To call businesses owners "Nazis" and "authoritarians" is a bit ridiculous.
