Leading expert on tyranny👇, offering some hope that the populist fever is breaking. Next steps are critical. Conservative & moderate leaders need to re-normalize pluralism by pushing back & re-erecting guardrails. Progressives need to provide space & cover. True in Alberta as it is in America.

I teach. I'm interested in cognition, working memory, and the brain. I'm interested in how these are involved in learning. I pay attention to research into the effect of repeated COVID infections on the brain. It's one reason I protect myself and my children from COVID. #EduSky
