    The Canadian Insight is an aspect that should be highlighted!

      She is brilliant! She teaches high school and covers world religions, US history, Canadian history, civics and more. She took over her charter school (I think that’s the concept even if they call it something else) when it was going to close and now leads her school. I’ve learned *so much* from her account.

    None of the videos played for me. Perhaps the government has blocked them.

      I’m sorry to hear that, Sadje! Here’s the Canadian’s video via TikTok, maybe that will work for you? https://www.tiktok.com/@unlearn16/video/7562669969578757383?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7470200144806512159

            Thank you dear friend. I don’t think that the problem is with these clips, our government bars some content from playing because they are afraid people will become aware.
