I had registered to speak at the YCDSB meeting. Along with others, I was told the board had enough information to make their decision, so all deputations were canceled. Trustees voted 6-4 against their committee's recommendation to raise Pride flags at schools. Shame on them.

“It should not be that some school boards are safe and some school boards are not.” Ontario needs to ensure 2SLGBTQIA+ students feel safe in every school. https://t.co/OF6ZT7q98S #OnPoli

@l_stone As Doug Ford continues to push his false lack-of-supply narrative to distract from his inept vaccination program, it’s important to note that there are ~600,000 doses currently sitting in freezers in Ontario.
Ontario will receive ~1,280,000 doses next week alone.
