“This is the first day of rain, and of course we are already flooded. What will happen if it rains again the next day? This is only the first day and we're already overwhelmed.”

People in Gaza are forced to live in overcrowded tent camps, where winter rains have proved to be lethal. All the while, Israel restricts the entrance of essential aid to the Sector.

This is a sign of things to come with education unions.

Doug Ford doesn’t care about workers in female-dominated professions.

Buckle up, friends in #OntEd.

Students at college and University campuses across Ontario protested the Ford government's attack on education. Students are fighting against cuts to OSAP, underfunding in the sector, and an attack on student services and student unions. Enough is enough, Ford has to go!

[Elementary Educators @ETFOeducators]

According to a new poll from Liaison Strategies, the majority of Ontarians disapprove of the Ford government's handling of public education and think the public system has deteriorated under his leadership. "Even some Conservative voters are displeased: 25% said they disapproved of Ford’s #onted policies."

Anyone surprised?

NEW poll: A supermajority of Jewish Americans believe Israeli & AIPAC actions increase antisemitism.

80% say Israel’s actions in Gaza & the West Bank increase antisemitism in the US.

66% say AIPAC’s campaign spending against candidates critical of Israel increases antisemitism.

ETT President Nigel Barriffe provides an update after yesterday’s incredible school walk-ins. At more than 300 schools in Toronto, teachers donned their Red for Ed and walked in with a display of solidarity and support ahead of next week’s strike vote.

The next two weeks will be crucial. Members, check your inbox for details from ETFO regarding your strike vote link.

On November 4, 2026 over 300 schools Walked In (and more are holding theirs after school!). You can see photos from the many, many walk-ins here on Facebook and our Instagram. On the eve of your Strike Vote, that’s a serious show of strength.

The public - and the Ford government - is paying attention. Read the latest coverage of yesterday's walk-ins at TorontoToday now https://t.co/CW6WvKpvl9

📣 Hear that, @fordnation? That's the people calling to demand you #FundOurSchools!

❌ Private jets
❌ Luxury mega spas
❌ $350,000 salaries to “supervisors”

Hearing this government talk about balanced budgets would be funny if it wasn’t hurting our children’s future
