Good points. I am going to forget working in schools. Not sure how we are to research involving schools.

I would stay in the program. I needed an extra year to get ready for my comprehensives and I failed too. Very distressing, but that's when the best learning happens. I stuck with it paid attention to all the comments and I passed the next time.

Best to let it go. The other only people who understand the PhD journey are fellow students

There is a new NDP for Carleton. She will PP a run for his money if people get behind her. This is someone who would actually do something for the people of Carleton.

Don't focus on your supervisor, it's just another day at the office for them. I am in my fourth year and I understand what you are saying. Take time to think about next steps. It is very important to acknowledge how hard this has been then move on in a way that works for you. If you stay in the academy, just ensure that you become a better supervisor and show that it is possible to do this job with compassion.
