@maisiecora In my house we call this “snack salad” and it is 100% a meal

I’ve been texting with “Isla’s mom” for 3 years. When is a good time to ask her her name?

Hot take: Scooby doo is just Murder She Wrote for children. It’s always the groundskeeper.

Wow!

@jennyautumn Me. I’m the rude one.

I will agree with cream of brocolli - but only if it’s full of cheese
Is ramen a soup? If so I pick Ramen.

Learning that Paprika is just dried and crushed red bell peppers was really shocking. Like I dunno why I thought there was a Paprika tree somewhere

I don’t know much about parenting, but I know there’s a goldfish cracker under your couch right now.

So like, Nick Cannon has a LOT of children.

Just so we're clear @osbcucscso doesn't have the power to shut down schools. Boards make that decision for safety. Now if these workers are so essential for safety that schools literally cannot function without them, maybe we pay them a living wage? #IStandWithCUPE

Here's a question: If their work is so important that you can't risk a potential strike of even a day; and you feel you have to invoke the notwithstanding clause - why are they being paid so little?

Any other parent stress eating their kids Halloween candy?

@Bhedin7 @darrenseville85 @GetRealNS @RichardCityNews @OntarioPolitix Even if it is annually, it’s putting them back up to fair compensation - there were many years where their increase was 0%, and never above 1.5%, well below inflation. In the last 10 years inflation is an estimated 50%. This union has seen less than 10% increase total.

[lalaurara @lalaurara]

@Bhedin7 @darrenseville85 @GetRealNS @RichardCityNews @OntarioPolitix I don’t believe they are asking for it ANNUALLY. It’s over the contract term.

@jbbradley772 @RichardCityNews Again. Not the teachers union. They are a completely separate union. This is the support workers (ECEs, EAs, custodians, secretaries, etc).

[lalaurara @lalaurara]

@jbbradley772 @RichardCityNews That’s fine because this isn’t the ontario teachers union.

@__Paul__G__ I’m really unsure how he can say this all with a straight face. Please someone give him an Oscar.

@andrewphung @DFisman I don’t want my kid in a classroom with someone who feels undervalued.
