    Sssssh, no need to plant a seed in JTs mind.

    Meghan, I wouldn't call teachers low hanging fruit. They are far better off, than the majority of people. 50% of whom don't gross 80K as a couple, let alone don't have secure futures and these days are losing sleep over paying bills...............

    And the main reason, they are often targeted, is because their unions put them in the crosshairs. No-one to blame but themselves. However there's a world of difference between a teacher and a union. And that imo, people need to shift their crosshairs.

    This is where JT got his brilliant idea. A spinoff from the WEF.

    https://www.1t.org/

    Conserving, restoring and growing 1 trillion trees by 2030


    "1t.org is part of the World Economic Forum’s efforts to accelerate nature-based solutions and was set up to support the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration 2021-2030."

    What they fail to say is that in order to accomplish this amazing feat they need to green 30% of all land masses.
    Displace people and reduce population.

    While we're at it, do we have to keep quoting George Orwell? This is 2021. Here are some dystopian novelists I'd sooner recommend: Hugh Howey, Margaret Atwood (The Blind Assassin won the Booker back in 2000), and Jeff VanderMeer. Get you some modern speculative fiction into you.

    Some of you are not acting as a teaching assistant while working at home during a pandemic as their Kindergartener undergoes english, math, and gym class in the background, and it shows. It's easy to be dismissive of something you're so removed from, but the struggle is real, folks. Also, teachers are still teaching/mothering their own clans at home.
    Well the Liberals are the rotten fruit, so best to pick it and if Justlied is actually going to call an election I want to make sure people know what kind of socialist elitist trash they are so we can pick and toss it and let the good fruit grow.

    as compared to the Liberals ideal of don't ask just let us tell you how to think.

    Orwell's a leftist that as he learned more he left the angry unicorns and bloody rainbows behind so it seems like a good one to maybe make a point about the implications of people's choices, the left don't think about the implications of their choices instead are like blind ideologues. I have heard people in the past over and over ask how did Hitler or a Communist or other government get in power and what I read in history is just like what I see the left doing in Canada now... I guess Trudeau thinks it is his "chance"... "their opportunity" to use his words in regards to the Great Reset and the Wuhan Pneumonia.

    I prefer writers like Michael Youssef, Mowat, Solzhenitsyn and books with content not fluff, I have several others I am looking forward to like Mike Loades and F.W. Boreham in the to be read pile too. May I suggest you try Jordan Peterson or Solzhenitsyn or C.S. Lewis... you know books to make you think not tell you what to think.

    If you feel like taking it personal, you are free too but it's false, I keep repeating I am talking about the teachers I know. If you want to talk about the lower grades then the ones I saw in the public system in the lower grades were exactly the ones I felt motivated spend the money and to put my kids in the private system for a few years. Did them wonders! Discipline, taught learning, help was available if the student struggled .... way way better than any I ever say in the public system. When they came out they got Honours almost every year and University and on into work have done great, I would recommend it to any parents, line of credits interest is real low now as compared to then and you can pay in a lump and pay off the line of credit over the year.

    The public teachers have got huge wage increases compared to the rest of the public, have 2 months+ off, full benefits and a huge pension.... poor teachers, sad to see they don't all make the sunshine list in Ontario... thousands do and if you look at the average wages, hmmm that would mean they are earning more than double the average wage too.... having to work to EARN all that.... poor babies. While as an IT professional I have had jobs with no benefits, no vacation pay and worked 3 months straight over 220 hours to meet deadlines, people are supposed to WORK to EARN their pay, so I have absolutely no sympathy. The one teacher I know hated the kids (openly said it) and only wanted the benefits, vacation, pay and time, off a real jerk, so if that IS your motivation then feel free but once again I was talking about the ones I know.



    Now can we talk about how incompetent and wasteful the Liberals are in their planting of trees? I would love to see the types and locations they will be planting.... tulip trees in the arctic, maples across the rolling Saskatchewan hills ... or maybe useful and thought out however unlikely that is.

    Saying that all liberals are rotten fruit is truly short-sighted. Absolutes make matters a little too cut and dry; people and politics are more complicated than that. Even Narnia is more complicated than that.

    Thats your opinion, like we are all entitled too.
    Personally I totally agree with Mosquito.
    Teachers are at home teaching and dealing with their own clan, most of the country is working from home dealing with their own clan. What makes teachers so special when many others are doing the same?
    Teachers are not low hanging fruit, gun owners are, thanks to the rot that is attacking them

    You've misunderstood, canadaman30. The use of the charity video was the low-hanging fruit. You're making the metaphor mouldy.

    Completely off topic Canadaman, but just pointing out to you ALL Canadians are not subject to gun ban in its present form, only the owners
    of some banned guns. I have all the same guns I had for 40 years and I expect most other hunters have to.
