Proud to wear #redfored & share info in our community this am alongside my school colleagues in @ETFOPeel to say #notobill33 & its potential devastating erosion of quality #OntEd public education #etfostrong & united with @ETFOeducators
Friday morning conditions; long exceptionally hot week. While it 22 outside currently in Brampton, no breeze or cool air coming into rooms. We need support healthy learning & working conditions in #onted schools. @ETFOPeel
The temp in a Brampton elementary school this morning – at 7:33 a.m. – well before the start of the day. 28.2C w a relative humidity of 69%. Feels like *31C*.
Unsafe & irresponsible. Neither learning nor working can happen effectively in these conditions. #ETFO#OntEd#OnLab
Sending out strength & solidarity to @ETFOPeel as they continue to negotiate with the board today. Time for for a fair deal that supports positive Peel learning & working conditions for all. #RedforEd
Sending our solidarity & support to @ETFOPeel as they begin local negotiations today and work towards a fair contract that supports positive, safe and awesome learning & working environments in our schools. #RedforEd
Hey parents, you might want to check out this video again in light of the govt propaganda Lecce just required all school boards to send to parents claiming to have increased funding for education.
Your child is getting less support thanks to this govt, not more.
#onted
It’s time for the Minister of #OntEd to stop pretending, posturing and posing. The Doug Ford Conservatives have drastically underfunded education in Ontario.
6.8% is significantly less than 17.3%.
Dear Minister @sfleece,
Filing for conciliation is simply another attempt by our union to seek a fair agreement. It's a legal request for a neutral third party to assist in bargaining.
If you want to bargain, we are ready, but please stop fear-mongering about strikes. #onpoli
On Monday, our ETFO central bargaining team were at the negotiations table again and members stood strong to send them union solidarity #onted#canlab#onlab
Sending our solidarity & support to @ETFOcb @ETFOeducators from @ETFOPeel as we start our day. Thank you for your continued work towards meaningful discussions & hopefully progress toward a fairly negotiated contract for quality public education. #OurSchoolsOurFuture#OntEd
During negotiations today, the released officers and members of the ETFO Bargaining Team felt the strong display of solidarity and support from elementary educators across Ontario. Thank you!
We are back at the table on Monday, June 26. #onpoli#OurSchoolsOurFuture
Sending our solidarity & support in our #redfored to @ETFOcb from our staff in @ETFOPeel today as you negotiate and work for real, sustained & meaningful discussions for our collective agreement because #OurSchoolsOurFuture! We stand with you @ETFOeducators.
The math is simple: 6.8% is significantly less than 17.3%. The Ford government is critically underfunding education across this province and our kids are paying the price.
#onpoli#OntEd
The amount that edu staff are behind inflation (and other sectors) is appalling.
Workers needs to have regular COL ⬆️ so that they are not working for 20% less than they did a decade prior.
1.25% a yr x 4 more yrs is disrespectful and continues wage suppression #onted
@peelschools: forcing exclusivity of @d2l (Brightspace) in schools means co-signing @fordnationdougford plan to privatize online Ed, which will take resources away from public schools & hurt students in the process. This is not #bettertogether! #onted @peeletfo @etfoeducators
Showing our #RedForEd#solidarity
in @ETFOPeel again this morning & sending our support to @ETFOcb @ETFOeducators as they bargain today. @Sflecce@fordnation time for real & meaningful negotiations of our collective agreement to support quality public education in #onted.
