Roy and Martin wish you the best of the season with another Christmas bonus. These are part of the ongoing bonus series called The Fieldtrip Sessions. Each episode is called The Fieldtrip Interviews and is a remix of two previously released guest interviews. Today’s Bonus Episode is a combination of two political guests Roy and Martin had on during Season 1, elected school trustee Cyndi Gerlach and Clint Johnston, the President of the Canadian Teachers’ Federation.
With their chat with Trustee Gerlach, The Stunt Brothers bring the listeners an exploration of diversity and inclusion in the classroom. This episode will be sure to evoke discussion among all the partner groups who strive to make diversity and inclusion work in today’s classroom. Cyndi does not hesitate to answer the tough questions and calls upon her 14 years of experience as a school trustee and many years as a parent of two autistic children. As always, The Stunt Brothers strive to bring all the separate bubbles out there together so that we hear each other, understand each other, and work together to make public education the best it can be.
For the second half of this Bonus Episode, Roy and Martin visit Clint Johnston, Past President of the BC Teachers’ Federation and current President of The Canadian Teachers’ Federation. The BCTF represents over 51 000 public school teachers in the province of British Columbia, Canada. Clint has just completed his second term as BCTF President and has now moved to Ottawa to start a new chapter as President of the Canadian Teachers’ Federation. He now represents over 370 000 teachers all across Canada. Last May, The Stunt Brothers went on a fieldtrip to sit down with Clint in his Vancouver office. The conversation is deep and revealing and provides insight into leadership, unionism, activism, social justice, and family. Sit down and listen and maybe make yourself a cocktail.
