A general strike was called in France today.
And well over a million people are in the streets at over 200 protests across the country.
Teachers, transport workers, garbage collectors, and gas and electric workers and more are all on strike today.
The fact that the Ontario government walked back Bill 28 is a reminder that worker rights are human rights. That public education is worth fighting for. And that the people, united, can NEVER be defeated. ✊🏽
The lowest paid education workers took on the Ford Conservatives and won.
Bill 28 will be repealed.
Now it's time for a good deal.

Ford is counting on us to give up, to lose hope.
To accept an Ontario where you work harder for less pay and you don't even have the right to bargain for better.
Where good schools are for the rich and the rest get whatever is left.
We don't have to accept that. We won't. 1/2
