🕯️On October 26th, vote to put an end to school board trustees rage-baiting parents and citizens. Watch as current @wrdsb trustee — and Ward 5 Waterloo council candidate — @ScottPiatkowski attempts to draw me into giving my personal opinion on a man dressing in women’s clothing and wearing an exuberant amount of makeup to teach math to children in our public schools. But I wasn't discussing any objection to this in my delegation - I used this example to show just how difficult it is to know where our money is actually being spent. For example: where would the funding for a "drag queen" teaching math to children come from? Would it fall under a math initiative, or would it come out of the “wellbeing” budget? In fact, that was essentially the entire 15 minutes of questioning — an attempt to discredit a parent so that legitimate questions could be dismissed as hateful or uninformed - rather than using that time to solve the problems. This is pride. Parents and citizens have every right to ask questions about the public school system that ought to serve our children and that which we help fund. On October 26th, vote for: ✅ honourable governance ✅transparent and responsible fiscal stewardship ✅accountability for results CFernandes.ca
