🧵It’s National Caregiver Day 🇨🇦 and I’m not here for the “you’re heroes” posts. Because heroes don’t get abandoned by the very systems that are supposed to support them. #NationalCaregiverDay #cdnpoli #onpoli @fordnation @MichaelParsa @OntarioPCParty @MarkJCarney 1/8

The #onted trolls need to research one name from this past school year to understand why our vulnerable students always get less and less. He should have been at school. @PaulCalandra - remember Max Simao?

What I find hilarious is Doug thought he was going to disappear on a 5 MONTH BREAK until Halloween, without being held accountable. Instead he’s faced an almost daily barrage of scathing scandals & explosive findings by reporters. And It looks good on him.

Calandra publicly lambasted a school board chair over a $15 milkshake expense and demanded strict oversight for minor items while charging taxpayers tens of thousands for hospitality, parties, and luxury hotel stays.

We already have so many children showing up to school with active vomiting, diarrhea, fever, etc. I can’t imagine how much worse it will be once the parents who actually have family care sick days/can afford to keep kids home send them out of fear of losing marks.

Can we have explicit confirmation that a doctor’s note will now be required to excuse a student’s absence due to illness? For a fever? For vomiting? Clarity is vital here. My child died as a result of illness in the classroom and I would like to know. @fordnation @PaulCalandra

The Ford effect. Much of the pain being felt across Canada is just really Ontario crumbling after 8 years of incompetent, utterly disastrous leadership. Our bad numbers — healthcare, economic, housing — are dragging the country down like an anchor. It’s Doug Ford, folks.

Today, we learned that Premier Ford has ordered civil servants to halt all existing and new Freedom of Information requests across all government ministries. Transparency and accountability are vital aspects of democracy, and if the Premier can’t accept this, then he should go back to his sticker company. #onpoli #freedomofinformation

What happens when @fordnation & his corrupt PC MPPs break the law, they rewrite the law to protect themselves, their donors, friends with benefits, developers, lobbyists. Then celebrate their accountability & transparency and cry foul when caught.

Hey #onted parents - ask your boards how many SLPs and CDAs were made redundant and will not be available for students next year. Non verbal kids received little no supports this year - next year it will be NO supports. @PaulCalandra & @fordnation - you’re a pair of assholes.

While @fordnation & his PC MPPs enjoy a day with their family & friends on Victoria Day Monday, they insist 100s of 1000s of Ontario workers do NOT deserve that right.

I believe in paying taxes for the betterment of all… but I also expect that the money I entrust to the government will be spent appropriately. This is not happening. Doug is not fiscally conservative. He is a disaster on so many fronts. It’s past time for a new Premier.
When did Doug Ford start buying his $30 million luxury jet? January. When did Ontarians find out? April. For months, he was secretly taking millions from taxpayers. Does he have no respect for your money? For months, he was secretly taking millions from taxpayers. Does he have no respect for your money?

Doug Ford lectured students about “misusing taxpayer money” to justify gutting OSAP grants. Now we know the truth: less than 1% of cases were flagged as ineligible, and not a single case was referred to police. The hypocrisy is unbelievable. This is the same Premier who cried about students allegedly buying cologne while spending $29 million of taxpayer money on a luxury jet. Students trying to afford school were never the problem. This government’s priorities are. #onpoli thestar.com/news/ontario/dou…

The auditor general has shown the public what teachers have been trying to communicate for years: The special education funding model in #OntEd is broken. Student safety and learning are at risk. Our kids deserve so much better. cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/o…
