OTPP inflationary increase is 2.4% on January 1.
There you have it, biggest increase I’ve seen in years comes in retirement.
This pension is a damn fine thing.

[Chona Dufresne @cma_duf]

@KpetaLocal Agreed and well said Kim! #MobilizeFor2022

[Chona Dufresne @cma_duf]

@jdeq Congratulations & Best Wishes Jerry! Enjoy the never ending weekend to do the things you love.

Let’s be honest, @Travisdhanraj asks fair questions - the type of questions that families want asked. Please retweet if you agree!

[Travis Dhanraj @Travisdhanraj]

Unfortunately, I didn't get to ask my questions to @fordnation today, shocking I know. #Onpoli #Onted

Here they are:

[Kim Huynh @i_hwin]

I phoned the parent of a home instruction student to schedule a drop off of a computer. I started the convo by asking, “How are you? Are you doing ok?” She started to cry as she shared her family’s challenges and I began to cry with her.

Bravo to our #ETFOstrong central bargaining team for steering us through a very difficult process and for achieving a tentative agreement for us under incredibly challenging circumstances.

Well done. @ETFOeducators

[Jim Stanford @JimboStanford]

A good week to remind Canadians: your public pensions (including CPP, OAS & GIS) have NOT LOST ONE SINGLE DOLLAR IN VALUE because of market mayhem. That's because they are all public defined benefit plans that depend on our shared productivity & solidarity, not financial gambling

[Jerry DeQuetteville @jdeq]

Shout out to #ETFO stewards and our local leadership teams. I am sure your heads must be spinning right now. We have never experienced a day like today. Thank you for patiently supporting #ETFO members and addressing their questions. You rock!

[Random Teacher @TeachRandom]

Elementary teachers have fallen 11.5% behind cost of living increases since 2012... and, yet, our ministers received 14% at once?

Tell us again how teachers are greedy for asking for 2%.

Anyone have the breakdown for secondary teachers? #FullReversal #NoCutsToEducation #OntEd

[OFL @OFLabour]

Now that the @WHO has declared #COVID19 a pandemic, it might be a really good time for @Fordnation to rethink its policy on #paidsickdays for everyone. #decentwork #OnLab #PowerOfMany #coronavirus

[Jerry DeQuetteville @jdeq]

My favourite part of a bargaining day - quiet time before anyone else arrives. An opportunity to gather thoughts before we head to the table. This room will be buzzing with discussion and work later this morning. #ETFOstrong

[Marit Stiles @MaritStiles]

So to be clear:

What breaks Doug Ford’s heart isn’t

▶️ students losing their courses
▶️ Education workers losing their jobs
▶️ Rising poverty
▶️ hospital overcrowding
▶️ special needs kids without supports

No... it’s that he didn’t get his vanity plates.
