Today, I was part of a picket line that stretched for 30km as over 200,000 education workers and thousands of parents continued to fight for our students, our children, and the future of public education in Ontario.

Dentist today:

One of my former Media students needs help getting her parents back home. Please read the @TorontoStar article and help amplify her voice.

[Sonja Cori Missio @SonjaMissio]

Thank you to @MoiraWelsh at the @TorontoStar for helping us tell our story.

We're trying to bring our parents home. And everyone's parents, loved ones, and friends on the ship.

@munakadri @LSPareja @playskool Someone can definitely repair that, Lindsay, don’t throw it out. Muna, my Teddy Ruxpin’s playback slowed so he sounded like Leonard Cohen. I hope that doesn’t happen to yours.

During second period, @MrBGrant's Grade 10 Drama class filmed an Environmental Footprint PSA called "Others Will Follow". This project was created, written, directed, and performed by these amazing students. Click the link to check out their video!

@RudyCuzzetto @Sflecce Mr. Cuzzetto, did you actually listen to the Minister? He said he’s:

- Increasing class sizes and removing caps.

- Making e-leaning mandatory unless parents book a special appointment and justify why their child shouldn’t be forced to take their courses online.

[Mr. Grant @MrBGrant]

@jdouglaslittle Mr. Little, you were a hero of mine as a kid. I spent several elections in the early 80s helping my dad put up lawn signs for your campaigns. I’m proud to find you by my side once again as I fight for my own kids and the future of public education in Ontario.

[Mr. Grant @MrBGrant]

@jamiewestndp Speaking a mix of French and English with my friend from Gaspé, I was shocked to find he had never played or even heard of Monopoly. I started describing the game, and when I got to the little green houses, he exclaimed, “Ah! Tu veux dire mono-PO-ly”. We both had a good laugh.

[Mr. Grant @MrBGrant]

@FAPareja @ETFOPeel @MrBuntingPDSB That’s outstanding. We’ve been joined on the line by so many parents, grandparents, former teachers, and members of the community, but I don’t think we’ve had any animals picket with us yet.

[Chris Cowley @oectagovernor]

.@Sflecce recently released a new video trying to be a regular guy casually chatting about the issues.

I thought it deserved a reality check.

@Anarchopanda @JohnOCAP @Sflecce @arkellsmusic Merci. La bonne chose à propos du vent était que nos drapeaux étaient superbes.

[Mr. Grant @MrBGrant]

We're fighting for what we believe in: public education.

Wind and snow won't stop us, and @Sflecce won't stop us from standing up for our students.

CP24's @cristina_CP24 :

"We’ve chatted with dozens of parents in the last few weeks, and a lot of them today as well. It has been difficult to find any parents who, frankly, agree with the provincial government’s policies when it comes to education." #OSSTF #onted #ETFOstrike

[Mary Fraser-Hamilton @MaryFraserH]

Our friends @ETFOeducators are out on #ETFOstrike today and @OSSTF is out later this week. We want you to know #Istrikebecause #cutshurtkids. Spread the word! Call your MPP and tell them to #reversethecuts! #onted #NoCutsToEducation

@madtummyache Maddie, you basically took my picks and then switched 1917 and Lion King for Visual Effects.

[Mr. Grant @MrBGrant]

For all former Media Studies and Drama students, here are my official Oscars Winners. Current students have all submitted their picks for a chance to win doughnuts by beating me, and you’re welcome to do the same, as always.

[Mr. Grant @MrBGrant]

@hulljacob Fingers crossed, Jacob. I’d feel safe at 17. I have more children now than I did when you were a student, so I see fewer movies.

[Mr. Grant @MrBGrant]

@NokhaDakroub No intelligent person actually believes these changes are good for students, you included. @Sflecce has never been able to explain how these changes will benefit students because even he knows they won’t, but I understand why he’s pretending. I don’t know why you are.
