SCREAMING this from my soapbox: It's not appropriate to label kids with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) as "bad kids." Doing so is stigmatizing and can harm their self-esteem and well-being. Retweet if you agree!

Just finished listening to #Waypoints by @SamHeughan as I readied my kids for school. Absolutely Brilliant! Loved the infusion of recordings along the journey, such an unexpected surprise. Left me wanting to listen to more of his thoughts/experiences. Born Bard. Slainte!

I would love to see a podcast spearheaded by recently retired teachers that addresses education topics with room for a Q &A period so the public can (respectfully) ask questions to clarify rumours & fake news.@HaltonDSB @GeorgetownDHS @DPCDSBSchools @CUPEOntario
Retweet if you agree that Ontario needs to end the wage suppression of nurses when hospital shutdowns are occurring due to a shortage of nurses. #RepealBill124

If #ServiceOntario all are franchises, that explains a lot about wait times. My question is now are #ServiceCanada locations franchised as well? @CTVToronto @ColinDMello @KevinFrankish @Travisdhanraj
"People don't care where the money's coming from. They want action. They don't want to see a backlog of surgeries, which the majority of us are facing.' -Doug Ford But Ontarians do want to know what happened to the missing $4.4 bn the federal govt sent to the province. #onpoli

Addressing the teacher shortage shouldn't involve lowering criteria to be a teacher--it should involve supporting teachers, paying them, and providing the resources needed to best serve students.

So if Wynne’s Gas Plant Scandal cost tax payers $230 million & her Premiership, how angry should voters be that Ford has secretly hidden $5.2billion(22x more) in Covid relief from Feds & is actually fighting his plans’ release at the SCC with taxpayer $$$?

#RHONJreunion Every season 1 cast member is the agreed shit disturber & the storylines unfold. @MargaretJosephs owns her shit, states it as fact so there are no skeletons, other cast members could learn a thing or two from her. #TeamMargaretJosephs

As a parent of 2 with special needs, I've learned one thing, you need to be rich to be able to afford the things they NEED to be as independent as possible. Medications, prosthetics, communication devices, etc. Yet when they become adults they're destined to be destitute.
I was so excited when my #autistic son got his PT job. Then, his caseworker explained that once Aaron earns $200/m, #ODSP will clawback 50¢ of every dollar earned! 😡 How is he & others supposed to rise out of #poverty & be financially independent under these conditions? #onpoli

Amen Gail!! I'm trying to remind those in our circle what HE'S done to the OAP & our family as well as our elderly & the vulnerable. Just hope everyone remembers come election day.
you're ffffucking full of shite. You've done NOTHING but dismantle our social system. Just ask all our elders... oh, the ones that aren't dead I mean. Just ask parents of autistic children. Just ask people on ODSP, those earning minimum wage, teachers and nurses.
There are many disabilities. Common disabilities are: vision Impairment, deaf or hard of hearing, mental health conditions, intellectual disability, acquired brain injury, autism spectrum disorder, and physical disability. Let's not focus on one or the other. #AccessForALL

-Resume masking in school/grocery stores/pharmacies. -narrow the shot 2->3 gap -make PCR testing more widely available, advertise inclusion criteria for Paxlovid & make it easier to get -communicate with the public None of these actions harm the economy and will save lives.

Haven’t heard from @Sflecce or Dr. Moore or @fordnation on the invitations to eat lunch in schools with staff and children when the masks come off? Please retweet to see if we can get a response. @CTVNews @CP24 @globalnewsto @CBCQueensPark @robferguson1 @globeandmail please ask

#mafs 🇨🇦 is a week or 2 behind the 🇺🇲 airings, please tell me Alyssa just leaves the show, if I have to hear the whine of "I'm a good person" one more time, I'm going to start fast forwarding every time her face is on the screen. Have the conversation, quit walking away!
🚫 NO to nurses 🚫 NO to kids w autism 🚫 NO to our elders in LTC 🚫 NO to teachers 🚫 NO to people on ODSP 🚫 NO to raising minimum wage 🚫 NO to the immunocompromised 🚫 NO to children 🚫 NO to $10/day daycare
Our province has come so far. We can't afford to go back the politics of NO. Instead, your government is saying YES! ✅YES to building ✅YES to investing ✅YES to workers ✅YES to jobs

Attn @osstf @ETFOeducators @OPCouncil @CPCOofficial Why are outside providers not allowed in schools to help support students? If my child is already working w/someone (paid for) why can't they come to observe, troubleshoot and/or teach staff? #onpoli @Sflecce @maritstiles
