We need to support students before their behaviours escalate but cuts have hurt kids. We don’t need to police schools, we need to support schools. Even the best SRO programs are a distraction from cuts of $6.3 Billion since Ford inherited a world class Ed system. #OntEd

Solidarity.

Unpaid work and less than minimum wage from profitable corporations whose bosses make over $10M is just unfair. Canada should expect better than that. Canada can be better than that. Elbows up.

If unpaid work is allowed for Air Canada then should Fords govt get paid only for his days at work? He is rarely at Queens Park & Queens Park seems to be recessed more than in session. Let Ford & Carney demand fairness for stewardesses by being real supporters of workers/labour.

School trustees are Ontario’s original form of representative democracy. They originate from pre-Confederation when Ontario was called Upper Canada. Trustees are the closest, most accessible elected official in our democracy, whose purpose are to reflect the wishes of parents.
