You want “obscene and expensive”? Have a look at Calandra’s expenses! Over $80,000 in expenses since being elected in 2018! ola.org/en/members/exp… #topoli #onpoli #onted

Mulch Madness! School Board caught again wasting money! PDSB dumped over $5,500 on MULCH for a politician photo-op. This board is literally throwing your money in the dirt. And this is only what we’ve uncovered — how much more is buried? Classrooms are struggling while @PeelSchools funds pageantry + prestige! Parents + taxpayers WE fund the schools — we deserve answers. School boards hide behind secrecy, but we’re pulling back the curtain. RT if you agree: Accountability + transparency NOW.

Back-to-school shouldn’t mean back to sweltering, unsafe classrooms 🥵 Across Ontario, students are learning in buildings with poor ventilation, billion-dollar repair backlogs, and no heat maximum standard under the the Occupational Health & Safety Act (OHSA). Overheating harms student health and learning. It’s time for the government to step up: Fund the repairs and upgrades our schools desperately need Pass legislation to protect students and education workers Set enforceable workplace heat standards under OHSA Our kids deserve safe, healthy learning environments—not crumbling classrooms!

Announcing ‘Ford High’ — streaming soon. At this underfunded school, the teachers are stressed, the students are stuck in crowded classrooms, and the building is LITERALLY crumbling. Stop Ford High from becoming a permanent reality across Ontario: fordhigh.ca

From East to the West and North to the South workers are rising up! Doug Ford's decisions continue to harm the people of Ontario. So let's keep in public and continue to support these lines.

This govt's school transportation funding formula is so disastrous that operators are still owed millions for last yr but don’t know how much they’ll get for fuel this year. This situation is only going to get worse if @JillDunlop1 continues to ignore it. bit.ly/3TaPUhd

Remember this when @fordnation & his parrots start singing their “working for workers” bs. Here they are trying to break a strike. Even their fed counterparts passed anti scab legislation- here in ON, our MPPs encourage it! Get to the table & settle this! #KeepLCBOPublic #ONLab

We are working on a new website for our Local! Keep an eye out for the official launch.

@ToddSmithPC and you too @Sflecce you created this mess, Still believe you are properly funding Education? This is one of many boards that are balancing budgets on the backs of Education workers. Hope you are enjoying your break while Ed workers will be recieving layoff notice.

Did you know the LCBO puts $2.5 billion into Ontario public services every year? Money from #LCBO sales goes toward health care, education, housing, and more. Doug Ford would rather that money went to his rich friends. sofundme.ca #ONpoli #ONlab

The Ford Conservative government’s new funding model is not fundamentally different from the old one. yorkregion.com/opinion/contri…

We were loud and clear today at the Ontario Health Coalition Rally to fight back against the privatization of our public healthcare ✊🏾💪🏾📢 We won’t back down and let our services be trampled on by the Ford government’s bad decision making 🪧

We closed out Convention today and are excited to take on all the work that members set out for CUPE Ontario this week, in the year ahead 💪🏾✊🏾 Our members make us what we are and we cherish the moments that we get to spend together like our annual Convention 👏🏽

Your failed at you #1 priority November 4 2022. Friendly reminder that you have 2 tables still going - OECTA & EWAO A strong strike mandate was just delivered by EWAO workers but I guess you don’t recognize them as an outlier even though they provide vital services to kids. #Wow
