New rule. Every time one politician knocks another politician's policy or action, they have to state what they would do instead.

@NYCFireWire Sorry.

.@HRCE_NS's rush to hire replacement workers after the fact is fraught w. concerns, the letter says, “from lack of timely safety checks to disregard for appropriate training to the absence of the very principles of quality inclusive education." #cupe5047 https://t.co/gLyAYJVkQU

Day 17 & 85 school hours since kids w/ disabilities had access to education in @HRCE_NS. Can you imagine any other cohort of kids being excluded like this? Why doesn’t @IWKHealth say something? Kids are missing important speech & physio sessions that in NS come though schools.

[Ms. Barker @jehinchey]

Another flare up.

Point Pleasant Park this morning.

[Ms. Barker @jehinchey]

@safe_hrm @CelticScathach There is actually a crosswalk about 50 ft to the left of the park and ride, crossing from the school.

I wish every child could receive the kindness, compassion, empathy, support and guidance of a Ms. Shelley. EPAs are our children’s greatest advocates and allies when they walk into school each day. Give these heroes the respect and wages they deserve. #nspoli

Educators do not get paid for the school breaks.

Their paycheck can be evenly distributed throughout the whole year.

It is unpaid time off, not a vacation.

[George Takei @GeorgeTakei]

Ban assault rifles, not books.

Regulate firearms, not women’s bodies.

Protect kids, not lobbyists.

Darrell Currie said the inquiry is “mostly just a farce” that is failing its mandate.

“I don’t see how any changes are going to be made if we’re not ever getting to the bottom of what the problems are,” he said.

This is very good news:
"And this year, with $12 million in additional funding, we are putting a new model in place for pre-school-aged children with autism spectrum disorders. Supports
will be tailored to the needs of each child and their family." #nspoli @NSBudget2022
