We invited people from our community to come and read with our students and share a little about themselves. It was very exciting month! We had a lot of visitors! We would like to thank them all very much for their time and for sharing their love of reading with us all. Ask your children who came and read to their class this month. We also had a book exchange/give away where students were able to choose a new or gently used book to keep. This was a favorite of the students and we plan to do it again next year. Look at all the people who came to read with us!

Warm and cozy, next to a fireplace stoked with broken bows and last year’s sheet music. Beethovens are flying through pieces faster than we can give it to them. Mozarts are improving every day; eager to have the brass and strings play together. Vivaldis are taking their endless amount of energy and putting it to- wards beautiful music. We have quite a few moments to celebrate this month. Beethovens played and sang their hearts out with the WSO at the WSO: Valentine’s Special on February 14th. They wowed the audience with Pirates of the Caribbean and One Love. We were also excited to get two visits from the WSO. Alexander Mickelthwaite dropped by to rehearse with the kids. By the end of the night, they sounded better than ever. Alexander was really impressed. Julian Pelicano also came by to help prepare the Mozarts for their con- cert with the WSO in March. They will be playing Pavane at the Adventures in Music series with the WSO on March 13th. We will send a letter with more details of the Mozarts dress rehearsal and perfor- mance. Please note that we changed Family Night to March 22nd. Below are some pictures of our special guests and a Festival du Voyageur night we had in celebration of French and Metis culture in Manitoba.

Jessi and I had been talking about investigating the community, with a potential focus on mapping. That same day (what are the chances?!), Gillian Judson emailed me a copy of her Walking Curriculum Journal, which includes amazing ideas of different things to document in the community, including local events in the community, ethnicities in the community, languages in the community, need I go on? Okay I will, there is a page called “My Maps: Favourite Spaces and Hiding spots.” Jessi and I loved this idea of mapping our community. We started with the question, What is a map? Here are some of the responses: A thing where you get help going to where you don’t know where it is, you get it?! -GG If you want to go somewhere and you get lost, you use a map. -KL It tells you where you are. -JJ If you’re on a treasure hunt, you have to have a map or else you won’t know where the treasure is. -KP I’ll just find the “X”, and put anything in it to be a treasure. -GG If you’re lost, you have a map. -KP You grab your map if you’re at the treasure. -HM We hunted around for some map books and read them aloud with the learners. We dissected the parts of the maps, including legends, compasses, and lines. There was an immediate interest in the treasure mapping page, how exciting! Then we began mapping our classroom… JJ started with a compass and then began sketching his map as if he was “sitting on the projector” (hanging from the ceiling). Some of our map sketches... Ecological Education Continued The focus of discussions continued to be treasure maps. We decided to have our first classroom treasure hunt. The learners worked in partners. One partner marked an “x” and hid the treasure (gems) and the other hunted for the hidden treasure. Elwick Community Room Preschool Program March 2018 Our Parent/Caregiver and Child (birth to 6 years) Programs will take place on Wednes- days, from 1:00-3:00pm and Thursdays, from 9:00-10:30am.

  • Report of the Vice-President Advocacy
    TO: UMSU Membership FROM: UMSU VPA, Kristin Smith DATE: Thursday, December 3, 2020 RE: 2020 Annual General Meeting VPA Report Report of the Vice-President Advocacy General Responsibilities Student Senate Caucus (SSC) I co-chair the Student Senate Caucus with UMGSA Vice-President (Academic) Rubel Talukder. We on-boarded the newly elected Senators in May, and distributed the revised Student Senate Caucus Handbook. Since then, we have been meeting on a monthly basis ahead of Senate meetings. Student Senate Caucus offers a venue for senators to voice their concerns about the Senate agenda prior to the Senate meeting, and to articulate questions to be raised at Senate. I construct the SSC agendas through reviewing the Senate agenda for the next meeting, pulling out the most important items for discussion, and distilling the issues in appendices. Senators understand they are encouraged to read the Senate agenda when it comes out to help identify if something should be added. The Student Senate Caucus has been eager in adopting an advocacy role as well, having submitted 2 proposals to the University, led by myself as Caucus co-chair: one for compassionate grading, and another for various measures to improve online learning. The Student Senate Caucus has also successfully filled the majority of Senate Committee seats requiring student representation. Individual Student Cases I have helped many students on individual advocacy concerns since beginning my term at UMSU. Sometimes it is as simple as answering a set of questions, providing advice, or connecting students with another office. Other times, students request that I be their official advocate in a disciplinary case, final grade appeal, admissions appeal, case for special consideration, or a myriad of other issues.

  • Lead and Crime in Manitoba: Urgent Action Needed
    Lead and Crime in Manitoba: Urgent action needed Jon Gerrard MLA Manitoba Liberal Caucus report “Lead poisoning is the most significant and prevalent disease of environmental origin in US children” -Silbergeld 1997 Lead exposure contributing to violence and crime is, “a public health crisis with serious social justice implications” -Emer et al 2020 “mounting evidence [supports] that preschool lead exposure affects the risk of criminal behavior later in life. … especially affects juvenile offending and related trends in index crime (mainly property crime rates and burglary)… Violent crime trends and shifts to higher adult arrest rates suggest blood lead also affects violent and repeat offending.” -Nevin 2007 “The hypothesis that murder rates are especially affected by severe lead poisoning is consistent with international and racial contrasts and a cross-sectional analysis of average 1985-1994 USA city murder rates.” -Nevin 2007 “1941-1975 gasoline lead use explained 90% of the 1964-1998 variation in USA violent crime.” - Economist Rick Nevin, from a study published in 2000, and reported by CTV news March 7, 2013 “We can either attack crime at its root by getting rid of the remaining lead in our environment, or we can continue our current policy of waiting 20 years and then locking up all the lead-poisoned kids who have turned into criminals.” -Drum 2016 “Cleaning up the rest of the lead that remains in our environment could turn out to be the cheapest, most effective crime prevention tool we have.” -Drum 2016 “Children found to have a blood lead level higher than 5 ug/dL (0.24 umol/L) should be investigated thoroughly and any identified exposure sources should be mitigated as soon as possible.” - Canadian Pediatric Society 2019 “The impact of lead is intergenerational.

  • 2018 Election Report Card: Will the Trudeau Government Deliver on Its Raised Expectations?
    2018 ELECTION REPORT CARD: WILL THE TRUDEAU GOVERNMENT DELIVER ON ITS RAISED EXPECTATIONS? By Shane Mackenzie & Jesse Robichaud Three years on from 2015 – campaign strategists are turning their attention to the 2019 federal election. For Prime Minister Trudeau’s incumbent Liberals, the strategic path to re-election will look different than the party’s vault from third place to a resounding pan-Canadian victory last time. The Way Things Were The promise of hope and renewed confidence in government was palpable when voters turned out en masse to elect MPs from Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party. The mere idea that “better is always possible!” gained traction with an electorate whose expectations had been steadily managed downward by the Harper government’s “no nonsense” decade at the helm. A previously struggling Liberal voter base came to life when the party’s candidates and their leader framed their platform of “real change” promises as a return to openness, evidence-based policy, climate action, large-scale investment, reconciliation, equality, support for families, and diversity. The Way Things Are No good deed goes unpunished, and for Trudeau there will undoubtedly be a political price to pay for raising the bar for what voters should expect from their government. Indeed, the success standard set for Trudeau is higher than in some past elections. And he set it himself. Once the bar has been raised, it’s impossible to lower it again – and it’s also harder to clear it consistently, as we have seen with issues like electoral reform, climate policy, pipelines, and relations with provincial governments.
