@Mikeggibbs @itiswhatitis900 Sadly, I doubt it. Fordnation is an egomaniacal machine.

@acoyne Ontario is a case study on vote splitting and an apathetic electorate.

@dgorman66 @acoyne More than Ford.

@acoyne This guy is so corrupt. He’s shutting down the legislature to avoid accountability in what is sure to be contentious education contract negotiations. He’ll return in October to force in back-to-work and/or arbitration legislation.

@JanetLantz4 @globeandmail The contracts don’t expire until August 31st. How would they go on strike now? It’s the gov who set the expiration date, btw.

@caymanreview3 @TinaYazdani The problem is the funding. Schools are funded as though all students take 2 online courses which have a 35:1 ratio of students to teachers. When students opt out and take the class in person, the school isn’t funded for it. This results in a lack of courses available.

@Pitbullatlarge @1StarAtaTyme The last strike, with rotating one day walk-offs across the province, was in the months of Nov - Jan. Plus, the contracts don’t expire until Aug 31st. Maybe sit this one out, Ian.

@LFPress Let’s be clear. There is no cell phone “ban” in #onted high school classrooms. The Ministry put out a memo saying it was up to individual teachers to decide if phones could be used in class or not. No policy. No consequences for disobeying. No back-up. Just more teacher workload.

@brianlilley I don’t know anyone who would agree with you. Your opinions are so far from the majority of people’s. I actually feel sad for you these days.

@CTVLondon Online learning’s time has come and gone. Kids just use AI to do all the thinking and work for them. Marks are highly inflated while actual learning is minimal.

[JB Jones 🇨🇦 @JBJonesey]

@KathleenAldrid9 @Bold_Sue @ctvottawa I agree. Tap water is free if sent from home, with the initial cost of a few reusable bottles. If parents want safe drinking water for their kids, and safe schools in general, they will need to get out and vote in the next provincial election.

@JBradshaw01 Like it was before Stephen Lecce was told to find ways to cut billions out of education.

[JB Jones 🇨🇦 @JBJonesey]

@JBradshaw01 Yep. It’s the real reason mandatory online credits were brought in. Saves a lot of money at the expense of student learning and development. There’s a place and time for online for some students, but not the masses.

[JB Jones 🇨🇦 @JBJonesey]

@JBradshaw01 I don’t think exams are done in most online courses these days. It’s been assignments that are easily made with AI. About half our grade 10-12 students are doing English online, resulting in huge section cuts to our school.

“More resources in classrooms” sounds great in a slogan.

What resources exactly?

Smaller class sizes?
More teachers?
More educational assistants?
More support staff for kids with special needs?
More mental health supports?
Because student outcomes have declined under Doug Ford while classrooms have become more overcrowded and under-supported.
If you’re not talking about actual investment in students and staff, then stop using the word “resources” as a PR line.

[JB Jones 🇨🇦 @JBJonesey]

@Bold_Sue @ctvottawa Cost. Schools are starved of funding. The only affordable answer is to remove the water fountains and tell parents they have to send their kids with water. Not a good solution, but this government won’t pay for repairs.

@CdnCrone @TinaYazdani Both can be true. Look at Trump.
