Why can't you repeal bill 124 to truly make investments in the people that run our hospitals...

[Sylvia Jones @SylviaJonesMPP]

We are making investments to ensure Ontario’s hospitals and community health infrastructure continue to be state-of-the-art facilities.

Today @UHN I announced over $182M to support critical upgrades and repairs at hospitals and community health settings.

Pretty rich given you're discriminating against women based on their pay. Give education workers a fair deal.

[Stephen Lecce @Sflecce]

Countering violence, bullying & discrimination against students w/ victims right’s advocate & former NHL'er @ShelKenn.

Ontario partnered with @RespectGroup to protect kids from abuse on top of being the 1st jurisdiction to mandate sexual abuse prevention training for educators.

Doug Ford, Stephen Lecce, and Logan Kanapathi, you're on the wrong side of history

[Chandra-Li Paul @CLP_OFL]

Standing in solidarity with Education Workers on the picket line at CF Markville Mall, on Hwy 7 in Markham. The Ford government has to stop the bullying tactics. Hands Off Workers' Rights! #39KIsNotEnough #OnLab #OnPoli @osbcucscso @CUPEOntario @OFLabour

[Dr. Jill Andrew, PhD (she/her) @JILLSLASTWORD]

Kids will be out of class tomorrow and the ONLY people to blame for this are @fordnation & @sflecce.

Moments ago at Queen's Park.
Premier: "CUPE has left us no choice but to use legislation"
NDP leader: "actually the premier does have a choice, he could make a difference in the lives of education workers" #onpoli #onted

Retweet this if you stand in solidarity with CUPE education workers.

[Birgit Umaigba-Omoruyi @birgitomo]

Doug Ford's strike-breaking legislation is against the law. He cannot force education workers to remain silent in the face of legislated poverty wages. This was how he legislated poverty wages for nurses with Bill 124. We fight back en masse! #ontedsolidarity #onted #onpoli

Conservatives just voted down the @OntarioNDP motion to double ODSP & OW rates. Result 74-35.

In June, the Premier gave 88% of his caucus a raise of over $16,600 per year.

[Dr. Jill Andrew, PhD (she/her) @JILLSLASTWORD]

Never forget this day Ontario.
Never forget these facts.

Doug Ford is a LIAR.
Doug Ford is an enemy of workers.
Doug Ford is happy destroying education in Ontario.

And WE won't STOP telling it like it is.

@fordnation - you will NEVER silence us. #onpoli

[Matthew Henriques @MHenriquesNDP]

@fordnation You're literally sitting on a 2 billion dollar surplus, lost track of 4 billion dollars in COVID relief funding, and many of your parliamentary assistants MPPs received wage increases of $16,000. You have the money, but don't want to invest in kids. https://t.co/87iRxWYZuM

[Rosé Bautista @DesmondCole]

interesting to see Ontario's education minister complain that 80 cents of every dollar spent on education goes to pay and benefits

this is also true of policing

a full-time OPP officer who finishes training makes $75,000/yr

a full-time education worker makes $49,000/yr

[Chris Glover @chrisglover]

BREAKING: I’ve been ejected from the chamber today because I am FIGHTING for ALL WORKERS RIGHTS and HUMAN RIGHTS across Ontario.

FORD IS DEMOLISHING OUR DEMOCRACY so I’m STANDING UP and FIGHTING BACK. ✊

#ONTedSolidarity #ONTed #ONpoli

[Matthew Henriques @MHenriquesNDP]

@Sflecce You have "Fighting for you" in your bio. You're sitting on a $2B surplus, you failed to track $4B in COVID relief funding, 30 parliamentary assistants received an extra $16k on top of their $116,500 salaries, but you can't pay education staff.

[Kate Dupuis @DrKateTO]

Just heard on @metromorning there were approx 30% more kids than usual seeking emergency care at Sick Kids on Monday. Ongoing staffing issues due to illness & people leaving the sector. What’s the plan @fordnation? #RepealBill124 to retain, recruit, and return healthcare heroes.

[Matthew Henriques @MHenriquesNDP]

You say that students have a right to learn, and there's nothing more important than that.

So if their right to learn is so important, why don't you pay teachers appropriately so the students get a proper education, instead of constant disputes. https://t.co/eMPJuus3zm

[Matthew Henriques @MHenriquesNDP]

It's time to the the wage suppression of our nurses

[Dr. Amit Arya @AmitAryaMD]

Retweet if you agree that Ontario needs to end the wage suppression of nurses when hospital shutdowns are occurring due to a shortage of nurses. #RepealBill124

[Kate Dupuis @DrKateTO]

Imagine if @fordnation held a presser and said: Folks. I’m sorry. I was wrong. I dropped restrictions too early. Let’s #MaskUpON and invest in our hospitals, HCWs, schools, daycares, LTC homes. The colder months are coming, monkeypox is a real concern. Let’s protect each other.
