People have been asking how we feel as an independent, proudly Canadian publication. While we’re disheartened by the threats against our country, we’re also uplifted by the resilience and unity we see around us. At the same time, we will never forget the American teachers who have supported us over the years—as contributors, subscribers, neighbours, and, most importantly, our friends. No matter what the future holds, our commitment remains the same: to stand with educators everywhere.
