If you’re in Ontario, the normalization of use of the notwithstanding clause should absolutely terrify you.

Ontario businesses urge education workers not to strike, with executives concerned it could normalize workers standing up for themselves

If you're in Ontario and you're looking for a picket line, CUPE has your back. Every worker in this province, especially every unionized worker, should be on a picket line on Friday. cupe.on.ca/dontbeabully/

Me: I'm absolutely going to spend less time on twitter Doug Ford: Not with a constitutional *and* labour crisis you are not.

Five more unions that endorsed Doug Ford are now condemning Ford’s attack on workers’ rights: “We are deeply concerned about the potential removal of collective bargaining rights impacting educational workers.” pressprogress.ca/five-more-unio… #onpoli #canlab #ontedsolidarity

If this were about keeping kids in class and nothing more, the government would agree to binding arbitration. It's not. It's about crushing a union to send a message.

🧵: PICKET LINES NEAR YOU #OnPoli #OntEd #DontBeABully #39KIsNotEnough

I’m in Nova Scotia, so today I’m joining the picket line at Dal with @CUPE3912 in solidarity with the CUPE Ontario workers. #ISupportCUPE

Infuriating story. Facts of this case: 1. An off-duty cop was drunk driving 2. His SUV drifted into oncoming traffic, hitting a motorcyclist 3. He fled the scene 4. The motorcyclist lost his leg and nearly died He managed to avoid charges of dangerous driving causing bodily harm

If you're wondering how things are going in Canada, tl;dr we're on the brink of a constitutional crisis because crack mayor's hash-dealing brother didn't want to give a modest pay increase to school janitors

People shitting on union job action while enjoying their mandated coffee and lunch breaks and their pensions and their sick and vacation days like those all miraculously just arrived from the heavens

There is nothing more expensive to the future of a society than cheap education. Governments that cut public education budgets destroy opportunity for our future. Pay what it costs, get what we need for our children’s futures. Cut highway budgets.

@kateatherley Notice they pick the wool industry, which is a speck on the textile market and does not involve slaughter for product—while giving the beef and pork industries a free pass. They don’t actually care about animals, they care about attention and money.

It’s wild that Doug Ford is now asking the federal government to give the provinces even more healthcare dollars with absolutely no strings attached...when he literally underspent on public healthcare in Ontario by $900 million during a healthcare crisis.

Which reminds me, assigning nightly high school homework normalizes after hours work and its wrong.
