On the bright side, if @BradMBradford is going to block everyone who doesn’t like him, there won’t be time for much else.

@BradMBradford turned the account he used to communicate with constituents into a platform for his mayoral campaign. He seems to have spent the entire ten hours since this switcharoo blocking constituents. What a guy, what a campaign!

I’ve been feeling a lot of things about the prospect of another mayoral election.

Today is the first time that one of those things is excited.

I love this city and I know it can be so much better — for everyone.

Care work is real work and without care work there is no work.

The success of the @CUPEOntario work action is the result of the determination and passion of education workers, and also because nothing happens without them.

When the people who take care of our children can’t work, parents and caregivers can’t work. We negotiate schedules, cancel meetings, take personal days if we have them, do what we can but never enough. It effectively is #GeneralStrikeON

This is the power of #ontedsolidarity in #BeachesEastYork! We have organized an east end @OFLabour #SolidaritySaturday rally for those who may not be able to travel downtown 💜💜

🚨Here's your chance to support @osbcucscso frontline Eduction Workers🚨

This GoFundMe is for grocery 💵 for the workers Ford is forcing to use food banks.

We've contacted CUPE & will give them the funds to give to members in need.

I’m shattered by the idea of another disruption to education. I hold #FordNation accountable & stand in solidarity with @CUPEOntario & members of the @OntarioNDP like @JILLSLASTWORD

Fight for school support staff, for Ms. L, for kids like mine.

Let me tell you about the maze book.

[Anna Penner @penneranna]

There are thousands of kids like mine in schools across Ontario. And thousands of educators and school support staff like Ms. L who work every day to support them. All without adequate support themselves.
