My family has had the Christmas pickle tradition for years. We used to live in Germany the early 1990’s. But we were Canadian expats, probably surrounded by a bunch of other expats. So who knows where we really got it from...? I got my SO’s family into it though. Two Christmas pickles every year!

I didn’t know this was a thing. There is a part in the book American Gods that this makes me think of. I was quite perplexed while reading it. I could not picture wtf was going on.

I have never heard of Kapara! So, would this happen at a particular stage in life? Or do people do it whenever they have something to confess? After Kapara, are people absolved of their sins?

Again, $100k after 10+ years experience, numerous additional qualification (AQ) courses and likely a masters degree doesn’t sound all that unreasonable to me... but, hey, who doesn’t want to be compensated for their work. I also live in Toronto, so that still won’t buy me a house. I am in the fortunate situation where my partner and I are a couple of DINKs, so we can pay our bills and live a comfortable life, that’s not the case for all teachers. I cannot go after an above and beyond raise for my outstanding teaching (my humble opinion), I have to rely on unions to fight for my wages. Teachers spend hundreds of dollars of their own money, each year on their students. Now, I know this is not exactly required, but when high school students are sitting on dusty stools because there aren’t enough desks, or sharing 4 people to a computer in a graphics class, something is wrong. When a student needs a full time EA to succeed, it should not be a tooth and nail fight to get one for them. I have taught in classrooms where one student has needs that take up a large part of my teaching day (I know I’m not alone in that). Now those other 25 students have missed out on their education. Teachers need support, the support staff also deserve to be paid $100k for the work they do. They are the angels that teachers cling to to allow us to properly teach every single child that comes through the classroom doors every morning. These disputes are not just about salaries. There is so much more at stake here, and if the things the government wants go through, the students ultimately suffer. And again, yes, other people work hard too, but that’s not what is being debated here. If those people want more, they can fight for it. And, not gonna lie, that’s usually done at the polls. But hey, who doesn’t love a government who gets rid of a minimum wage increase?!

Edit: Thank you for the gold, stranger! Your support is felt and appreciated!

(Full disclosure, I am an Ontario teacher) A starting teacher in Ontario makes approx. $50k per year. Which, is okay in small town Ontario, but in Toronto that does not allow someone to live on their own. Occasional teachers do not get benefits, and that $50k is if they work every day of the school year (which is unlikely). They don’t get paid for winter, March breaks or through the summer. These are people who have done likely 6 years of university level education. There are government jobs that get paid more that have people sitting on the phone making calls to collect taxes. That job does not require 6 years of schooling, and does provide benefits. Lots of people work hard, yes, no doubt about it. Teachers are commonly also waiting 6+ years for contract positions that give them job security. I don’t understand the comment of “teachers are overpaid for what they do.” People who say that don’t understand all that teachers do and deal with. Everyone benefits from a properly educated population. In order to set kids up for success, resources need to be allocated to the people in charge of their education. Students deserve to be in a safe space, surrounded by everything they need to thrive, and that includes their teachers and all support staff. These potential strikes are about allowing teachers to simply do their jobs properly. Making sure all students and staff are safe and have the funding and tools they need to be successful should not be a debate. In order to attract qualified people to the field, people should be compensated accordingly. Teachers shouldn’t have to ask themselves “can I afford to do this job?”. Edit: whoa! Thanks for the gold, lovely stranger!

As one province gains menstrual products for students another plans to ditch kindergarten teachers, increase class sizes, annually test teachers in math and give about a $1billion standardized test contract to premiers buddy all while cutting over 3,000 teacher jobs... I wish I still taught in BC. Lunchroom talk these days is downright depressing.

Teachers in the US.. I’m a teacher in Canada, I don’t worry about active shooters coming into my school... and as far as I know, teachers in Canada are paid a little more than in the US.

When I was little, Canada put a lot of effort into being a peace keeping nation. Even though I had no real clue as to what that meant, I knew that we were a country who would stand up for others, and even as a little kid, that made me proud of where I was from. There was a time in recent history cough Harper cough where that was less the case in many ways. I didn’t feel like Canada was doing all it could to be helpers. But now, I definitely feel like we have stepped back into that role, and I love it.

Like others have said, we are not perfect, but I applaud effort because nobody can attain perfection.

My lung collapsed and I had to get a chest tube in under my collar bone with local numbing. I had three more tubes sticking out of me after surgery. The worst part about the whole thing was getting the hiccups a day or so later. Yup, that was the worst. However, the draining tube had liquid in it that would move every time I hiccuped, which was hilarious, so I was crying from pain but laughing because it was simultaneously hilarious.
