Talking about all things #onted. Watching Ontario teacher union negotiations. Claims, contracts, and what’s really being bargained. Kids are not pawns.
Go for the jugular, people. The province has starved the education system so much the safety of teachers, students and support staff are at risk.

@Mr_S_Ont When MPP’s aren’t in the House, they’re working in the communities. They’re not off. It’s not a vacation.
Can we also address your claim that most of the work #onted workers do is outside of school? 🤭
I hope they shut this province down with a strike the 3rd day of classes.
Make it last weeks. Force the government to acknowledge that it is not them that makes this province run. Workers do.
And they have sh*t on us for 8 years and counting
NEW: Ontario’s education unions are officially serving notice to bargain today.
Among their demands:
• smaller class sizes (capped at 24 students for grades 4-8, and 26 for kindergarten)
• ending mandatory e-learning for high school students
• spec ed investments
I delegated @DPCDSBSchools last night in support of flying the Pride flag. Before the meeting even started the police had to called in. In what has to be one of the most disgraceful outcomes for a Catholic Board I've seen in a long time, the motion to fly the Pride flag outside the board office and schools did not even receive a 2nd and so was not voted on. A second motion to allow the indigenous flag to fly every day as requested by our indigenous community received the same disrespectful treatment. TY @breacorbet for being the lone voice in support of students and staff
