@msbeaulne So much great learning that can happen in these sessions. Too bad they couldn't be run on a PD day or during school time.

When our healthcare providers are already exhausted, now @fordnation is asking primary care to work 7 days a week and evenings. How about @fordnation invests in healthcare instead of destroying it.

Ministry of Education (who is also responsible for Child Care) sent a memo out last week directing centres to deny school age children space during the school day.
Because it is all about the kids, right?
Lecce gives not a fig about kids or families or clearly anyone’s rights

This is an excellent example of a parent who gets it! Do you research & get loud! https://t.co/c5draTualt

In 2011, tvdsb EAs started at $20.26. In 11 years they've received a $1.79 increase to $22.05!!! Minimum wage in 2011 was $10.25. Today, it's $15.50. So EAs went up 8.8% and minimum wage went up 51.2%. Add this to the explosion in violence and here we are! #cupe #onted

@gator_gum I've made a donation to @sghottawa to turn something negative to a positive. Hope others will consider donating as well.

[J Loots @loots84]

Also to add @sghottawa had to give meals to protestors that harassed them. Consider a donation to them.

I’m just a teacher, sitting in front of her computer, confused about what the heck I’m supposed to be planning for. Wrote this instead 🤷🏼‍♀️ @gator_gum

It seems pertinent to point out that Doug Ford's government cancelled curriculum re-writing sessions with residential school survivors in 2018 + shut down the office of the child advocate, who investigated deaths of kids in foster care, a disproportionate # of whom are Indigenous

“Sweetest Kulu” - Celina Kalluk

Londoners have organized a human chain lining the sidewalk along the path the Salman family walked when they were attacked Sunday. I’m told the idea is that families are taking back the sidewalk from here to the mosque which is 6.7 km away in a show of solidarity for the family.

Today, my community honoured the spirits of 215 babies lost at the Kamloops Residential School. We placed our moccasins on the stairs of the former Mohawk Institute Residential School in Brantford. We offered tobacco. We cried. We must never forget and acknowledge these truths.

We have a free resource that helps one understand about the Indian Residential School System here: https://t.co/DxqbMpPxeL

Here is the list of the 55 Conservative MPPs who voted against giving Ontarians #PaidSickDays today. I am deeply disappointed #Nepean’s MPP @MacLeodLisa voted against this. We desperately need #PaidSickLeave to help get this pandemic under control. #WeCanDoBetter #onpoli

🤣 It's true! (Although I'm still a few years out from meeting the age requirement)

Opening up vaccine spots to a generation that woke up at 3 am to get spots outside Sam the Record Man for their concert tickets? Ontario was not ready.

[J Loots @loots84]

@ONT_Dad Well according to @fordnation and @Sflecce there is a "great online learning system" that @Sflecce and his team created, that teachers use. So they must think there's no planning involved #FireLecce
