Ford must immediately recall the legislature to fully repeal Bill 28, return to the bargaining table now, and negotiate a fair deal for education workers.

This is all due to the strength and courage of school board workers across the province, the persistence of their bargaining committee, and the solidarity of our union and of the labour movement! OSBCU-CSCSO CUPE Ontario #onpoli #onted

From day one, you wanted to bully education workers. And you just got schooled. That’s your legacy in #Ontario. Enough spin. Get a fair deal done. #39kIsNotEnough

Thanks to the determination of OSBCU-CSCSO workers & the historic show of solidarity from workers across the labour movement, along with parents and students - Ford has no choice but to repeal Bill 28. When we stand together, we can win. #onpoli

It's confirmed - the government has been humiliated into u-turning on Bill 28. This is a win for kids, parents and workers. Doug Ford must immediately recall the legislature to fully repeal Bill 28. Now get back to the table premier and make a deal. Get it done. #onted #onpoli

Loblaws profits — $1 million in excess profits per day in 2022 so far. Corporate grocery stores are driving greedflation and hurting Canadians everywhere. The result? 1.5 million visits to food banks in one month. Enough greed. It's time to tax excess profits.

Why wait a week to repeal an unconstitutional bill that should've never been tabled? Ford rushed his draconian bill last week when he forced a 5 a.m. sitting and now is taking his sweet time to repeal. Ontario NDP is ready to repeal Bill 28 today. Recall the house now.

Where IS the urgency Doug Ford? The horror of having hospitals at 185% capacity looks like this⤵️ (For the uninitiated that means for every staffed hospital bed there are almost two patients- they're stacked in hallways & emerg- & staffing was already not enough for one.)

Accordingly, Ford doesn't care about "the people." He cares about his people and the relationships he can build with them for his success. Of course he wants to help people. His people and himself. Spolier: you probably aren't one of them.

Lively ATU picket line here in TO. The days of 124 are numbered. “When the workers don’t get it…. SHUT IT DOWN!” #onpoli

Yesterday was a major victory for everyone who pushed back against Doug Ford bullying low paid workers who support our kids. Now the government needs to build back trust with education workers, parents and students who just don't believe a word the premier says. #onted #onpoli

Not a dollar more to support patients and healthcare workers. No money for affordable housing. No money for education despite a $6 billion shortfall. No increase to OW and ODSP rates. Doug Ford isn't on your side. #onpoli #onted #ottpoli Doug Ford ontariondp.ca/news/ndp-slams…

Ford's use of the notwithstanding clause didn't just target education workers, it put the bargaining rights of all workers at risk - whether you work in a school, a factory or on a construction site. So what did the Labour Minister do to stand up for workers? Nothing. #onpoli
