@douglasdowney Are you misrepresenting the facts (ie. lying) on purpose to mislead people, or do you actually believe this?? ‘cause you don’t have the correct facts!
@Sflecce@fordnation You say that students’ education is important. Then pay the workers what they are worth! But let’s be honest, for you this isn’t about the students at all. This is about trampling workers’ rights. We will not forget! #IStandWithCUPE
NEW: Green Party leader @MikeSchreiner has written to federal Justice Minister @DavidLametti requesting that Ottawa "intervene in and challenge" the use of the notwithstanding clause to block a strike and impose a contract on @CUPEOntario.

We will use every tool at our disposal to keep schools open.
Children should not pay the price for an education union's desire for higher pay. It's just not right.
@Sflecce Because those 4 hours of tutoring are going to make such a big difference? I think not. How about properly funding the education system that we already have and paying ed workers a decent wage so they can continue to do the excellent work that they do EVERY day!!
I am not an Ontarian, or a teacher, or an education assistant, but I have a perspective on the Ford government’s “Keeping Students in Schools Act”. I was Minister of Education in Alberta for 7 years, including the time the Charter was developed and enacted. #onted#onpoli
“Enough is enough! We need to step up. This is about our future. It’s our fight and we can make a difference. Defeating the Ford government must be our priority.” @ETFOpresident#onted#onpoli
Did you know ⁉️ The current Ministry @ONlongtermcare “standard” is 2 baths/showers per wk. Approx 75% or more residents are incontinent of urine and bowel. Who came up with this standard? And why do we always set the bar so low for our seniors in #Ontario? #onpoli#LTC
Remember in 2019 when @MacLeodLisa blew up the Ont. Autism Program and pretended that it was unconscionable that 23k kids were on the waitlist? There are now 50k kids waiting. Does she care? No, but voters will! #50KIsNotOk#onpoli
Last night there was 1 PSW working at my mom’s nursing home (on her second shift of the day). 1 PSW for 32 res. Most cannot walk, toilet or feed themselves. This is unsafe and unacceptable. This is @ONlongtermcare. Make this an #Elections2022 issue for you #Ontario#onpoli#LTC
They told you tests weren't necessary for your children...
....while the wealthy & well-connected got 1st dibs on an essential public health tool.
This isn't an anomaly with Ford: it's standard operating procedure.

Ford Conservatives denied public schools rapid tests last September while shipping 175,000 free rapid tests to private schools. Who decided the health & safety of private school students and families were more important than yours and mine? #onpoli#onted
