Canada has a unique democracy unlike anywhere else in the world it is governed by two rival cellphone companies and a powerful grocery store.

It’s happened again. The Talbot Street rail overpass has claimed another large vehicle. #TalbotStreetCanOpener

School boards across the province are facing deficits and being forced to make cuts on already strained SpecEd programming. This is a direct result of this gov'ts underfunding of education and once again it's our most vulnerable students who pay the price.

@donovanscience I always told elementary teachers that if a student could Google a test question then the question was the problem; not the technology.

[OSSTF Communications @osstf]

BREAKING: Ford gov has taken over $1.3 billion out of public education funding & deliberately hid the cuts under a "Planned Provision" item!

This means Ford has cut $1500 per student in #OntEd funding since 2018. Really shows their commitment to transparency 😡 #OSSTF #OnPoli

May the 4th be with you my friend. I miss you!

[Kimiko Shibata 🦋 @ESL_fairy]

Thanks to government funding cuts, over 100 of our teachers have found out that their jobs have been cut.

Literally pink-slipped.

Unemployed.

This has not happened locally since the Mike Harris days.

Please send all of the puppies and kittens.

The 407 runs parallel to the 413 & is dramatically under-utilized.

Ford could improve traffic TODAY for much LESS — but wants to WASTE $10 BILLION for a Highway that ISN’T needed & WON’T reduce traffic time.

The 413 is more Ford corruption.

StopHim. InvestigateHim. OustHim!!

[P.b.Freire @Freire1Pb]

MInister of Transportation Caroline Mulroney lawyer stated the costs of #Hwy413 cannot override cabinet secrecy. However, MTO revealed that just one kilometre-long section of #Hwy413 spanning the Humber River could cost Ontarians as much as $444 million.

In 2024-2025, Ontario will have 4,990 fewer classroom educators than it would have had if the funding formula hadn’t changed since 2018-19.
Public education isn't being funded properly and students and staff are paying the price.

@karenosstf Agree. It is all smoke and mirrors while avoiding the real issues.

[Tara Mitchell @mitcheta3477]

@kate_logue @Sflecce This is not only a school problem. It is a parenting problem!

[Marit Stiles @MaritStiles]

The Ford government’s story is unravelling. Opening up the Greenbelt had nothing to do with housing and everything to do with a bunch of rich guys making backroom deals to make themselves even richer. 

Read for yourself.

Wow, #tvdsb! Can you please justify why @DirFisherTVDSB is worth $326,291? That's a 15.3% increase over the previous year. Remind me again how much (or should I say little) #cupe members received last year? #onted, notice how there isn't a director of education shortage?

[Tara Mitchell @mitcheta3477]

@ETFOeducators @JustinTrudeau This is simply a bandaid that does not address the root cause of the problem - food insecurity and the skyrocketing cost of basic necessities.

💫 Let's engage students in their #IEPs with insightful questions. What are your aspirations? What brings you joy? What discourages you? How would you like us to help? 💫 #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter

[ONTSpecialNeeds @ONTSpecialNeeds]

Imagine THIS in your school!

🤩 Self-regulation is not something #students have or lack—it is something we develop over time, and some of us need targeted instruction to acquire. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Educators #UDL
