@Sflecce @DrFullertonMPP Set up for success - are you serious. My wife is a teacher with 23 kids & has a new immigrant that doesn’t speak English or French & she has to grade him against a curriculum she has to modify to his needs. He will be so far behind come high school. So tell me where’s the success

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@CrystalXDX @screws1974 @Sflecce Well then I’m guessing you have never been a teacher or seen inside a classroom in Ontario. Sure in every profession there are some that slack - I’m sure you have slackers in your profession. But teachers need EA’s & they are worth every $ and then some.

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@MichaelLauzon17 @REAPOCALYP @Sflecce They agreed to the wage increase the gap is now the governments unwillingness to raise the number of support workers - the classrooms are in desperate need. My wife teaches and has no EA yet has 3 kids in need of support.

@Sflecce You were the last province to get kids back into the classroom - you didn’t negotiate a deal with the teachers union last time - they returned because of the pandemic for the kids and left their contract status quo - what have you really done?

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@Jimmyzoupa @KenKaneki25 @fordnation So what happens then when no one wants to do these jobs and do a different career as you suggest - who helps the kids then?

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@oldgrump13 @Unbranded63 @fordnation @JustinTrudeau Maybe change your name from old grump to ignorant old grump - get the facts before making statements like that.

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@WenWin66 @fordnation @JustinTrudeau Greedy - are you serious right now! How about this - you try doing there job for a week on what they make - then you can decide if there still greedy. Get the facts before you make statements like that.

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@Barking_Digits @DaleV73 @Sflecce Seriously - ever been a teacher. Ever spent a day in the classroom with 22 kids. Trying to help them learn. Before you condemn walk a mile in their shoes. So easy from the outside to cast stones.

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@granger_cc @Sflecce Hahah you kidding me - my wife is a teacher. Don’t care about these kids - we spend several $1000 a year of our own money for her classroom and these kids she apparently doesn’t care about. Maybe try being a teacher before you condemn them and get the real story.

@Quiznos Ancaster and so disappointed with the service - no one behind the counter knew what they were doing and could understand what customers were asking for. It was a terrible experience and there was no clear leader at the location.

@PassportCan I mailed my passport in may for renewal. I travel July 14 & tried for status update through online form more than a week ago. How do I check status & expedite process - willing to pay for rush.

It’s a good day to have a good day!!!

Once you realize you won’t be around forever that’s what makes life so magical. One day you will eat your last meal, smell your last flower, hug your friend for the last time. You might not know it’s your last time so that’s why you should do everything you love with passion - RG

Pretty inspiring listening to new and innovate ways to get small farm produce and meat to the public in affordable was with #graze&gather at the @ofvc1 show

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

Inspired to hear from Hollis English from @MurphysFarm this morning as she shared her story of being a Woman leader in business and agriculture @ofvc1. Her story will lay the ground work for so many other woman in agriculture to follow!

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

Hanging out at the #ofvc2022 connecting with the farming community. What a learning experience! #Scotiabank SB AG!

Way to cancel in class learning @fordnation and @Sflecce and placing kids and teachers online. Just heard of the 4th teacher I know taking a leave of absence for Jan because they just can’t do it again!!

[Matthew Collins @boadazapha]

@Sflecce If the minister of health says classrooms are safer then why not let the kids go back?
