We need a breakdown of the demographics of this report. Several Black educators, students and their families are languishing in this backlog and being failed by the system. This must be addressed.

All across Ontario, public schools and students are suffering from chronic underfunding and understaffing. Student needs are unmet. It just can’t continue this way! We need a government with a plan to fix the problem, not erode quality public education. #FundEducation #onted
