We stand with parents who insist that their children stay in class free from disruption & focused on learning. See my latest statement on OECTA’s strike-mandate. 👇

Violence, hate, homophobia, & transphobia have NO place in #onted schools. Our schools must always be safe & welcoming environments for #2SLGBTQIA+ students, educators, & communities! #CatholicTeachers #onpoli thestar.com/opinion/contribu…

Flying the Pride flag 🏳️‍🌈, as the majority of #onted Catholic school boards already do, “isn’t a small gesture… it’s life-changing – and lifesaving – for queer and trans students.” ☝ Catholic school graduate perspective #CatholicTeachers #onpoli broadview.org/york-catholic-…

Flying the #PrideFlag 🏳️‍🌈 outside our #onted Catholic schools is a demonstration to #2SLGBTQIA+ students, #CatholicTeachers, staff, families – everyone – that we are committed to celebrating love & diversity, & that hate & homophobia have no place in our classrooms. #onpoli

Once again, evidence shows private, for-profit health care to be wildly more expensive than publicly-delivered care. We're going to be paying for privatization in higher taxes and worse care! #onpoli rabble.ca/columnists/ontario…
