Laura Walton, president of the CUPE Ontario School Board Council, says the education workers strike will continue Monday and indefinitely until a deal is reached with the Ford government.
Some facts about Brampton's Healthcare Crisis:
- At one point, Brampton Civic was forced to operate at over 100% capacity & Peel Memorial at over 500%
- Across the board, the city of Brampton receives LESS healthcare funding
- Brampton had a health crisis even BEFORE the pandemic
We need universal pharmacare & dental care that are fully funded by taxes (collected from both profitable corporations and the rest of us) and available to all. This is what it means to "leave no one behind." @MonteMcNaughton@DeepakAnandMPP@fordnation#Justice4Workers#ONpoli
If this scheme ignores the widespread employer tactic of pretending we’re “self-employed,” not regular workers entitled to all rights & benefits as other workers, it’s proof @fordnation & #Uber have 1 thing in mind: profit 💰, not #Justice4Workers https://t.co/u3ows8pGXN
📢 Students & ed workers go back to school & work on Monday w/o adequate safety measures in place.

BREAKING: #CdnPoli law for #PaidSickDays just received royal assent. But with Bill C-3 workers won't earn 10 days until OCTOBER. 😱
Then, if we must use the full 10 days, we start off with ZERO the next year—and we won't get to 10 until NOVEMBER! 🤯 See 🧵⬇️

BREAKING: 📢 @AndreaHorwath commits to $20 min wage! “After @FordNation cancelled $15 min wage & froze it for 2 years, frontline essential workers in #ONpoli fell even further behind. It's time for $20. NDP plan is practical and predictable." -Pam Frache, #Justice4Workers 1/2 ⬇️
📢 ALL workers need 10 #PaidSickDays when they are actually sick, not 10 (or 11) months later.
💥 We need your help to ensure federal legislation (Bill C-3) is as effective as possible.

Spent the evening in Brampton getting signatures on the #Justice4Workers petition. Almost 100 people in an hour! @ONgov we demand #PaidSickDays and $20 minimum wage for all workers. Check out the other demands below.
So...this just came out! It's such an honour to have been selected as a Changemaker by the @TorontoStar!
Remember: Health care is a human right. People matter more than profits. And compassion is everything.
I'm truly humbled. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Why are cases rising in Ontario? Three simple answers:
1. We are using droplet precautions for an airborne pathogen.
2. Mask diligence is dropping sharply.
3. #2 is worsened by inappropriate political messaging that we're pretty much safe, including allowing full stadiums.
>Brampton has less than half the per capita no. of hospital beds compared to ON average
>The surgical backlog in Brampton is one of the biggest in ON
>A 250 bed non acute care hospital will not solve this evolving crisis & not address the city’s ongoing hallway healthcare crisis
