Thanks Ms. Burgess, for paving the way for others of us to continue the struggle not only for our black students, but those of other cultures, as we showcase our positive attitudes, knowledge and skills and surmount barriers, while striving to make our community a better place

Knowing the history and herstory of Black Canadian trailblazers is inspiring, but decades later @etfopresident says some of the same challenges and barriers remain in the Ontario #onted school system for Black educators and students. #BHM #BHM2023 cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

@VpkentSarah No longer a delegate, but an Associate Member able to observe "from afar!" So good to see Sam, and to hear what's being done to maximize greater recognition and improvement to the education system in Ontario, in Canada, and even extending abroad. Sincere thanks to you Sir!

The actions or rather the lack of action from the Ford government to address this crisis are just mind boggling. #healthcare #onted

It blows my mind that while our healthcare system is collapsing, the Ontario government is paying millions of dollars to private, for-profit agencies to provide temporary nursing...instead of just paying all nurses what they deserve, so Ontarians can get the care they deserve.

Educators are often expected to shut up and get on with it, or else they're called lazy and greedy. However, people need to stop and think about the fact that what educators really want is a system where everyone can find success.

Not only are schools the backbone of strong and healthy communities across our province, they’re also the engine that will help power the next generation of small business owners, doctors and engineers.

I sent a letter to the Minister of Education and my local school board today and you should too. Students and their educators should be focused on learning together, not preparing for disruptive tests to measure the system. #ETFO #EQAO Send a message:nwmd.io/s/twitter/ZhM0…
