We’ve got a quick lesson for Minister Lecce. ✏️ ▶️

And this is the government in charge of “new math”?! We’re concerned.

Tell Minister Lecce to stop making false claims. Tell Lecce that @osbcucscso workers need a https://t.co/73UGT6FGnO

This is for the big grrrls who now live in a world w a little more representation. Where they are treated w respect. To not be the punchline of a tiredass fat joke. To be loved. To be talented. To be great. We do this because representation changes the culture & can change lives

So let me get this straight. The healthcare system is in crisis. Over 20% of LTC facilities are still in outbreak. 3rd dose uptake is lagging....and yet the Ontario government is scrapping the mandatory 5-day COVID isolation rule?

This isn't public health...it's atrocious.

UPDATE June 3: Only about 22% of Ontario actually voted for Doug Ford, 59% of those that voted DID NOT vote for him and only about 43% of Ontario voted at all. This is our un-democratic First Past the Post system @FairVoteCanada

This has been a long school year.

Went into a small Vancouver restaurant that has a sign "Masks strongly recommended". Watched people read it and enter. Every person put on a mask as they entered, without any issue. Not newsworthy, I guess, but in an unremarkable way, I thought it was interesting.

[Steve Flindall @flindall_steve]

So, Doug Ford said he’s listening to Dr. Moore. Dr. Moore says he consulted the Ontario Science Table. The Ontario Science Table opposes the lifting of mask mandates at this time. Who’s lying? Personally, I trust the Science Table.

.@sflecce's messaging is relational to whatever serves capitalism at the moment.

Capital needs parents to work? Then kids need to be in classrooms.

But capital doesn't want to pay for it? Better get the kids into online learning.

With this 'logic' it all makes sense. #onted
