Ontario has cut 5,000 classroom positions since 2018. Yes, cell phones are a distraction. The real problem is the underfunding of public schools. #onted #onpoli. How many positions has your school board lost? See the board-by-board breakdown below. monitormag.ca/articles/ontar…

@margaretprophet Yes, They announced a very similar policy in 2019 Québec announced a similar one at the same time, and again in late 2023). During the pandemic (Fall 2020) they considered lifting the policy for a bit, I believe, to allow for the COVID-19 app. This gov has a habit of this
Let's talk a little about how progressive parties die. I've been talking about this in relation to the Democrats in the US for a while, but it also applies to the @bcndp. You can't alienate your base. Especially as politics becomes more polarized, you need them. *Rant warning.*
Many wildlife and #fishingLakeSimcoe considerations have been ignored for the @stopbwgbypass too. Impacts to fish have not been reviewed by federal government. And #onpoli's procuring a contractor to get started on western portion of #BradfordBypass this year. Reckless and $$$$

Grassy Narrows Chief Rudy Turtle’s message to Ontario Premiere Doug Ford, whose government refuses to meet with First Nations opposed to Ring of Fire development. Chief Turtle already lives the devastating effects of industrial poisoning- mercury poisoning that’s been going on…

The hyperventilating about deficits is really bananas. Canada is struggling because of a lack of investment, our inability to build things (like housing), a lack of competition, and growth through increased labour rather than increased productivity. Deficits a sideshow.

This is a distraction from your gov't's failure to really invest in education & students. I'd also add that this "out of sight, out of mind" business has a similar vibe to those who say youth should be "seen, not heard." Much like your slogans, your gov't is stuck in the past.

"[W]hile the left silences or mocks boys, the right sidles up to them with a more seductive story: Follow us and we will restore you to a manly place of power and dignity": @ruthwhippman makes a feminist case for taking men's anxieties more seriously. the.ink/p/ruth-whippma…
BTW: Sarah Jama is openly defying the keffiyeh ban in the Ontario legislature. #onpoli
This is ridiculous. No Muslim woman would ever ask another why she decided to wear hijab. I had a family member wear it after she lost her hair to chemo. First the keffiyeh, now the hijab. This may have not been what govt intended but that’s where this is going.
It's interesting that interest-free (Halal) mortgages were mentioned in the federal budget as something that respects a religious belief, though 99% of Canadians would benefit from interest-free mortgages and they should be prevailing state policy.
Remember Umar Zameer's case the next time a politician like @PierrePoilievre or @fordnation says we need "jail not bail" as a default There's a presumption of innocence in our constitution for good reason P.S. ~80% of people in Ontario jails are awaiting trial
This is huge news! Margaret Thatcher sold off England’s water and it was a disaster from day one. Such a disaster that her own party must take it back! Thames Water nationalisation plan could move bulk of £15bn debt to state theguardian.com/business/2024/…
The IMF says Canada has the best budget balance in the G7. They also rate us as having the third highest economic growth on Earth. We are always at the top of livability, environment, happiness and safety rankings. This man is lying to you.
"Densification, fourplexes-as-of-right, infill and high-rises near transit hubs all conspire to ensure Canadians have fewer and fewer babies." .@globeandmail the 1950's called and they would like their thinking back. theglobeandmail.com/politics/opini…
When capital gains modestly goes up:
You cannot be pro-democracy and anti-protest. The two go hand-in-hand.
Workers should fight for the interests of the class they're in, not the uber-wealthy class they will never, ever be a part of and which shouldn't even exist.
@margaretprophet Doug Ford must have been talking to Mike Harris who brought us the deadly #Walkerton tainted water mess that Harris brought about with provincial water standards cuts. The PC party can't even learn from it's own past.
