One hundred and eighty-nine years ago, slavery was abolished in Canada. Today we celebrate Emancipation Day and recognize the strength and resilience of Black communities, as we commit to keep building a more inclusive Canada.

Our local library branch closing today. Going to be a TMU med school (which is a good thing), but this city is grossly in need of library spaces.

I've been a full-time Ontario teacher & OSSTF Communications member for over 20 years. I've been "on strike" for a grand total of three days. My students have missed out on one school day every 7 years due to labour action. Stephen Lecce is certifiably a compulsive liar. 😒 #CdnMedia #OntEd

My prediction: he will praise OSSTF for considering arbitration and will demonize all other unions for not giving up their right to bargain for better learning conditions for their students. Throw in some “unprecedented investments in education” word salad and call it a day.

If all I cared about was salary increases, I would push for arbitration. But I care about our kids. I don’t want to see even more vital supports for students stripped away by this government. #OntEd

Wondering why Peel District School Board is shutting down the report card system on Saturday - the weekend before they are due and when so many educators will be using the system… ETFO Peel what is happening? Why could this not have been done next weekend? #onted

‘Just do the reports on a word document’ is not a ‘fix’ for today -the system should be up/running, ETFO Peel educators should be able to access it -absolutely ridiculous for this to happen this weekend, even more unbelievable that Peel District School Board thinks this is acceptable. #onted

A Recipe For Wonder Peel District School Board ETFO Peel And Peel wonders why its reputation has plummeted and staff are fleeing for other boards. Or do you wonder Rashmi Swarup? What can you do for the staff impacted and how can you prevent this from happening in other reporting periods?

.ETFO Peel was made aware this week through the system notifications of the board’s ‘Scheduled Outage’ of SIS & other systems – including the Progress Report/Report Card Module. The local has been advocating all week with the Director’s office for… #ETFO #OntEd #OnLab

School wifi is down, so we can’t print, photocopy, or access any technology. Rather than stress over a totally different lesson, I open this book. The activities inside are game changers. You’re missing out if you teach math and don’t own this.

I had the privilege of visiting the new modular homes dtown Peterborough that folks will be moving into soon. I want to applaud City of Peterborough & lead Councillors Riel & Alex Bierk, City staff, and Elizabeth Fry Society of Peterborough that have brought a dream to reality in under 6 months. This will save lives.

Picture is worth 1000 words. Especially 1000 words from #PierrePoilievre.

This is one hell of an ad that will air during the Super Bowl today. Retweet and pass it on.

I heard on the radio that there are 30,000 qualified educators in Ontario who are choosing NOT to work in schools. There isn’t a teacher shortage. There’s a shortage of educators willing to put up with the abysmal conditions created by Stephen Lecce.

Canadian here. I can't explain how badly the rest of the world wants a woman of color to be President of The United States of America right now. It would signal hope vs the absolute chaos we've all been dreading for some time. 🇨🇦 Go Harris.

It's amazing that Doug Ford thinks he can find $150 billion dollars to dig a tunnel but can't find enough to repair a roof at the Ontario Science Centre?

Hey, @CityofStJohns can we do something like this? Wait for the 2nd plow.

Hey News ditto -can we do this?
