It is indeed Labor Day.... And I am busy today getting all of my ingredients ready for my annual Labor Day barbecue.... But this year will definitely be a lot different, especially with this COVID-19 bullshit, as I will only be cooking for my immediate family, with no friends or relatives over... That will definitely be a bit disappointing..Meanwhile, I have a bit of time to fire off a few articles... And one Canadian reader who lives in British Columbia (near my fellow colleague, Greencrow!) and does from time to time send me some material for this blog, sent me a link to today's 'Vancouver Sun' newspaper headline that I found absolutely abominable... For it shows how the fuckers in charge are definitely going to brainwash our children with what is being claimed is "face mask wearing culture"!I therefore want to present that "Vancouver Sun" article from their website at www.vancouversun.com, that is entitled: "COVID-19: B.C. Teachers Encouraged To Create "Culture Of Mask Wearing In Class" right here for everyone to see this abomination for themselves.. I do have my own thoughts and comments to follow:COVID-19: B.C. teachers encouraged to create 'culture of mask-wearing' in classEducation Minister Rob Fleming says there are guidelines for what happens when a case of COVID-19 presents itself at schoolsAuthor of the article:David CarriggPublishing date:Sep 07, 2020 • Last Updated 15 hours ago • 2 minute readThe British Columbia Teachers’ Federation has encouraged teachers to create a “culture of mask-wearing in your classroom,” as they prepare to welcome close to half a million students back to learning in a COVID-19 world this Thursday.The Ministry of Education has mandated mask-wearing for all staff and students in secondary schools when they are in common areas like hallways and buses. Masks are optional when cohorts of students are in class together and not required for elementary school students. Two masks will be given to each secondary school student.B.C. Teachers Federation president Teri Mooring has sent an email to all members addressing this week’s return to school, where teachers will return on Tuesday and Wednesday for safety training before the students arrive Thursday.“First and foremost … you need to take care of yourself,” Mooring wrote. “If that means creating a culture of mask-wearing in your classroom, do it. If that means staying as physically distant as you can, do it.”Mooring called the Ministry of Education’s first return-to-school plan released on July 29 “flawed.”She said the government had since listened to BCTF concerns.“We convinced the government to give school staff two health and safety orientation days, pressured them into ensuring remote options are made available in every district, and used our collective voices to ensure hiring more teachers was a priority for the use of federal funding,” Mooring wrote.However, she wrote that the ministry’s rollout of its revised back-to-school plan was “clumsy.”“The Ministry of Education’s clumsy rollout of the restart plan means there is inequity in working and learning conditions across the province,” Mooring wrote.“Some districts have created solid hybrid models that will reduce class sizes for many teachers. Others have created accessible and equitable remote options, while several are still lagging behind. We will not be letting up on our public advocacy to pressure the government and school districts to take every possible action to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our schools.”Mooring wrote that any teacher who had a COVID-19 safety issue at school had many options to complain.“If at any time, you are concerned about the conditions in your classroom, please talk to your site-based health and safety representative, your school union representative or contact your local union office immediately,” she wrote.“Any safety concerns about working conditions must be reported to the employer promptly. Your local union can support you in doing that. Every local has site-based and local-wide representatives who can assist you. Local unions also have Local Presidents and other members working hard to troubleshoot and advocate.”Education Minister Rob Fleming said there were guidelines for what happens if and when a case of COVID-19 should present itself at schools, including what to do and when it warrants a public health investigation.Broadly speaking, the ministry has asked school districts to prepare to move to fully remote or hybrid models of learning if there is a significant second wave.“We’ll be able to move forward as well as we can move back,” Fleming said, depending on public health orders.— with files from Canadian Pressdcarrigg@postmedia.comNTS Notes: I always knew that with children now returning to classrooms across North America, that the criminals in charge may seize the opportunity to indoctrinate them with their COVID-19 bullshit and brainwashing... And voila, here we have the teachers in British Columbia now doing exactly that to create a 'culture' of thinking in children that it is absolutely "normal' to wear 'face diapers' at all times! This is to me absolutely grotesque and truly an abomination... I do hope that parents living in British Columbia and elsewhere across Canada and even in the US, do see this type of brainwashing taking place, and put a stop to it immediately!I also did notice that my great colleague in BC, Greencrow, did receive the link to this same article that I have here in one of her comments in her recent article about Judy Mikovitz..... It will be interesting to see if Greencrow sends a comment my way about her own thoughts about this travesty as well...The bottom line is this... These criminal fuckers pushing this entire scam-demic are now reaching new lows in trying to perpetuate this entire fraud, and are absolutely targeting and using our own children as possible weapons for the continuing brainwashing of the masses.... I have always said that children must be able to be children, and not have to endure this fraud scam-demic, the fear mongering, and propaganda, especially in the classrooms.... Leave our children out of this brainwashing scam-demic, period!More to comeNTS
