NEW: NDP is calling on Ontario @fordnation government to post a public list of all schools that have COVID cases #onpoli

[Sam Hammond @SLAR2023]

We’ve gone from two meters to one meter of physical distancing in classrooms to... “in your classrooms your desks are going to be as far apart as your teacher can make them”! I don’t know of any medical expert who has recommended this approach!! @ETFOeducators @CTFFCE #onted

[D29 OSSTF @OsstfD]

Today HPEDSB released a response to our statement. We stand behind our statement & our concern for student safety. The board’s press release is intentionally misleading. Our concerns aren’t about when students CAN’T wear masks but rather when they REFUSE #studentsfirst #OSSTF

[D29 OSSTF @OsstfD]

Our board here in D29 doesn’t appear to be following Ministry Guidelines andtaking staff and student safety seriously enough. Please read our press release today. #UnsafeSeptemberON #OSSTF

20 Quebec teachers from one high school are in quarantine after 2 test positive for COVID-19. #onted #etfo #osstf #oecta #aefo #cupe

Ford and Lecce claim Ontario's school reopening plan is the "safest and most cautious" in Canada. Chief Coroner, Dr. David Hyer stressed the need for, "proper physical distancing."

How can this be if 2 M physical distancing is NOT mandated in Ford's plan?

A #SafeSeptember requires funded sick leave for parents & guardians. ALL families need to be assured that while they look after their child/dependent, their paycheque remains the same.

"Parents and advocates of students with special needs say Ontario’s back-to-school plan doesn’t address their concerns ahead of this unprecedented school year." #onted #onpoli https://t.co/eYyZDzxNlW via @torontostar

[OSSTF Communications @osstf]

Ontario should focus more on reducing class sizes https://t.co/VatMyBLRHW via @torontostar #onted #onpoli #osstf #SafeSeptember

[Harvey Bischof @HarveyBischof]

While teachers & ed workers are working hard to prepare for the reopening of schools, our Premier decides, yet again, to belittle educators. This does nothing to help inspire confidence for a safe return to schools for students, parents and educators. #OSSTF #onted #onpoli

[D29 OSSTF @OsstfD]

D29 Leadership has asked our board to take advantage of Ministry offer of more time to implement last minute plan. Our board has said no! #osstf #SafeSeptember
