@WeAreCanProud I guess we don’t understand body language or understand what a sarcastic look looks like 😂 it’s laughable that you all are still crying over your loss.
Doubly curious if @ChildrenON is briefing @ONeducation on the lack of OAP funding issued to autistic children moving forward? That max funding will buy less therapy than ever, creating increased need for Spec Ed, EAs, LRTs in our schools? #50KIsNotOk@ChandraPasma#onted
Curious. How many educators, trustees, boards are aware of the number of autistic children (with significant need) who will be suddenly forced into the school system in the coming months as their Ontario Autism Pgrm contracts are ended? #onted@ChandraPasma@Sflecce#50KIsNotOK
If Ontario gives @fordnation 4 more years, I really believe the @OntarioPCParty will privatize parts of our health care system and continue to make education cuts.
Your vote matters more than ever.

Just end the school year now rather then debate whether they should go or not! Let the kids have a early summer that they deserve. It’s a lost year anyways for most @fordnation@Sflecce#onpoli@CityNews@CP24
@ToddSmithPC But no mention of the #ontarioautismprogram#OAP Once again we are left behind & non existent to this government. SHAME!!! Where our the core services Todd & Doug!! You all have been quiet ... WHY?!?! Something to hide?!? #autismdoesntendatford#onpoli@fordnation
2 yrs! It’s been 2 yrs & U still can’t get it right! #ontarioautismprogram Remove age caps & professionals should decide on NEEDs. This NOT a NEEDS based program. We R Relentless & we will NOT stop! Do better. #AutismDoesntEndAtFord#2Little2LateTodd
@ToddSmithPC @fordnation this new #ontarioautismprogram is NOT needs base it’s BS. Do Better! Remove age caps & have the professionals decide what is needed not some1 with 1 day training! U’ve had 2 yrs to figure this out & u’ve got it wrong again!#onpoli#AutismDoesntEndAtFord
Over 40,000 kids with Autism have been stuck in limbo for 2 years now. These kids are being failed by this government. Developmental windows are being lost and families are tired and stressed. Enough is enough. #AutismDoesntEndAtFord@MacLeodLisa @ToddSmithPC @fordnation@onpoli
@ToddSmithPC please show me how you have followed the panel recommendations? I have a copy of the report, so lets compare notes. I have a feeling its not "to the letter of the law". Its been 2 yrs now & our community is in crisis. #AutismDoesntEndAtFord#2Little2LateTodd#onpoli

-Waitlists that are DEFINITELY longer
-Start dates that continue change
-Age-based funding caps
-Unknown role clinicians will play in determining needs

My son has been on the waitlist for the #OntarioAutismProgram for almost 7 years. How does the @OntarioPCParty and @ChildrenON expect him to gain independence without #NeedsBasedTherapy? His dream right now is to be a waiter, and work in the restaurant where I cook. How does
