@Teachers__Unite There are 21,000 kids living with disabilities in Ontario that CANNOT attend school because the needed accommodations are not adequately funded. We know this from community research. Why do they think cutting spec edu funding is ok?
This is ableism

@KimH07501108@tylerwatt There's been anger, and fighting since 2018. Not enough people heard us. @fordnation has been clear since then that special needs kids aren't wanted in schools. He doesn't like the disabled at at any age.
On Tuesday, the Auditor General confirmed what parents, teachers, and education workers have been warning about for years.
This government is failing students with special needs. Somehow, they found $29 million for a luxury private jet, but continue to shortchange special education in Ontario.
Every child deserves access to a quality education and the support they need to succeed in the classroom - no matter their needs. #onpoli #onted

SCOOP: TDSB to cut 15 specialized kindergarten classes for students with disabilities, after making the controversial decision last year to increase the size of the classes.
It is the latest in a wave of cuts tied to a projected drop in enrolment: https://t.co/VECZrLuWZV
@TinaYazdani I’m calling this out! Is this a true drop in enrolment or is it just that kids CAN’T be at school bc the ministry has underfunded spec education so severely?! https://t.co/CM5IygyQ9E
Ford called an early election to ensure a majority win to fight US tariffs & Protect Ontario. But once he won, he took 5 months off, then 3 more months off, cut OSAP, bought & sold a jet, restricted FOI, seized Toronto Islands. How does that fight US tariffs?
#BREAKING: Doug Ford was in such a rush to hide his phone records that his Freedom of Information changes quietly received royal assent this morning, on a Friday, with the Legislature not even sitting.
I have sent urgent letters to:
1. The Secretary of Cabinet
2. The RCMP
3. Ontario's Information and Privacy Commissioner
Each is being asked to act immediately to safeguard evidence related to the Greenbelt scandal before this government can destroy it.
As Premier, I will reverse these changes and restore transparency, trust, and faith in our democracy.
While operating rooms in public hospitals sit unused across Ontario, the Ford gov't is privatizing their services at an unprecedented rate. It's not about wait times. It's about contracting for-profit corporations who bill OHIP & patients to profit.

@KNugent4118 Dud he not also say he knew people that are making 250k and there kids got OSAP. isn't cut off like 150k. So you know the wealthy are committing fraud? I think it's not talked about how the tuition freeze being removed will play into this.
@isaaccallan It's unsustainable when you sit on billions and purposely underspend. It's almost like they want to break it, they don't even have to hide it anymore.
@MoonGlo33@DC6444446738423@brianlilley Lord Galen forbids it. Cue the profit margin gaslighters. There shouldn't be record profits quarter after quarter. But the monopolies are in with all parties to look away.
@PierrePoilievre Stop mislabelling corporate greed as inflation. Please present a plan to limit monopolies and record profits for essentials of survival like food. Inflation is the scape goat for price inflation.
The Ford government is on a path to underfund healthcare by $10.7 billion, says Ontario’s financial watchdog.
While the finance minister is promising “no frontline cuts” & urging hospitals to find efficiencies, opposition critics predict hospitals will be forced to make layoffs
