JAMpacked

@SaskPower What was the cause of the outages.

5:35 AM: Crews have been dispatched and are determining the cause and repair time for the outage reported in all towns and areas west of Saskatoon, north of Leader up to Neilburg. #skoutage

@JWAHaskins @PremierScottMoe Nov 14 According to a press release today.

Today, our government tabled historic legislation to protect our economic growth and prosperity from intrusive federal policies. [1/2]

@Beth_NOT_Betty @mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca Yes. All that time off sounds horrible indeed. I wouldn’t expect to get paid for it if I did tho. Those r the hours worked in that job. U get paid for what u work. I mean I wish it was different for everyone I do. But I haven’t found a job yet that will pay me not to work.

@evanisk @mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca At least you have a job all year round and don’t get laid off at Christmas, March Break and for 2 months in the summer.

Important clarification: Teachers and education workers don’t have 131 #PaidSickDays. They have 11 sick days. Depending on their union and contract status, they may be able to access 120 short-term medical leave days. They are not the same thing. #onted #onlab

@mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca As a teacher? Or an ea?

@evanisk @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca I work all year so I’m not sure what your trying to say.

@_hodl_btc @paulie_atreides @AOC @elonmusk Shade. He meant shade.

@paulie_atreides @AOC @elonmusk Thought Libs weren’t into fat shaming

🤔

@reillywalker195 @mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca This is true

@Rod13221618 @heddinjury @mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca I am in an unionized job

@heddinjury @evanisk @mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca I never understood that argument and so many people use it. Maybe they should join a union!

@krusk @mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca I work closely with the sick and dying everyday yes.

@mmorden @jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca I gotta work all year round to get the equivalent… so I get less than that essentially. Sounds like a seeet deal really.

@jillpromoli @dbpromotionsca - 11 fully paid sick days - 120 short term disability days at 90% and only able to use w/ committee approval w/ doctors note. - 5 family days fully paid - sick/disability/family days are not banked or paid out. Use or lose - vacation and sick days are not interchangeable

@fordnation @JustinTrudeau Honestly with the amount of Covid and flu going around .. it may not be a bad idea to close the classrooms right now🤷🏽‍♂️

I spoke with Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau and made clear that shutting down classrooms would have an unacceptable impact on students. I reiterated that Ontario is determined, if necessary, to pass legislation to keep classrooms open and ensure stability for parents and students.

@allisonjade No casual worker gets paid for not working.

@ricoandg @DesmondCole Collect ei in summer. Not that it’s much for pay, but for transparency.

@DesmondCole Within 4 years that cop makes $110,000. The educational worker still makes $49,000. And not all make $49,000. EA make $26/hr. On a 7 hour day. On a 10 month year. LAID OFF all summer, and Christmas and March break.

interesting to see Ontario's education minister complain that 80 cents of every dollar spent on education goes to pay and benefits this is also true of policing a full-time OPP officer who finishes training makes $75,000/yr a full-time education worker makes $49,000/yr

@DelyanneMoney Absolutely!! Thank u for saying this

The Fed is expected to raise interest rates again today by .75% in a poor attempt to curb inflation. Meanwhile oil companies have reported over $50 billion in third quarter profits exceeding expectations. Corporate greed is driving inflation.

@Louise70278152 @Stepolopolis @CheriDiNovo @Sflecce No. I haven’t because it wasn’t the job for me and I knew that.

BREAKING: Ford is going to fine CUPE for exercising their legal right to strike by charging those who make #39kIsNotEnough 10% of their yearly salary per day if they walk! @sflecce made $165,851.04 back in 2020. SHAME

@MichLovesMoney Guns and wars

@DaleStarkA10 She always had a meal for us. She took us to explore the world and gave me a love of travel. She believed In me. She worked hard to give us what she could. Here’s hoping I’m doing what I need to for them to feel all those things.

@Stepolopolis @CheriDiNovo @Sflecce Maybe we need to rethink the hours they work not-have so many breaks and days off… if I only worked that many days I wouldn’t make my full wage either.

@CheriDiNovo @Sflecce Correct Premier Ford is making it illegal to strike and to educate you a bit that $39k is $40 per hour based on the number of hours they actually work

@EeffocevolI @mike_dickin @JBradshaw01 Is this a starting wage? Actually.. if u want my support for this.. share the collective agreement wages as they stand now. Straight accross. So I know.. what honestly am I supporting.if 38k is what MOST r making. I’ll support this. But I’m going to need to see #

@mike_dickin @JBradshaw01 You’re right no one can afford to be off work right now, but CUPE education workers that make an average of 38k / yr are ready to be. What does that tell you?

Sadly, I predict that teachers unions will do nothing to support our CUPE comrades if (when) Ford and Lecce drop the legislation hammer, because they fear repercussions in their own negotiations. It’s a myth that unions are too powerful. #OntEd #onpoli.

@ColinDMello Teachers should be considered essential services and not allowed to strike. Both can get their shit together to settle this at the bargaining tAble. The kids can dealt with enough of adults crap lately

BREAKING: CUPE says it’s 55,000 members will go on strike regardless of the government’s legislation in an open act of defiance. #onpoli #onted
