This just came to our attention!! No @Sflecce and @fordnation are not taking direction from the professionals. They chose less social distancing for “practical reasons” aka refusing to spend the money to keep kids safe! #safeschoolsdependoncupe

#onted take notice! More confirmed cases of COVID at Calgary summer school, including one teacher. This school setting had capped classes of 15 with at least 2 m between students and staff. It is time to rethink our reopening plan. #safeseptember calgary.ctvnews.ca/3-positiv…

The only limits on class sizes in elementary schools during a pandemic are the ones education workers went on strike for this year. Think about that. #onpoli #tdsb #etfo #aefo #oecta #osstf

Arts education is essential for the development of the whole child and should never be just a "nice-to-have." And the research backs it up: a study by @UBC found students who took music lessons performed better in English, science, and math. #onted forbes.com/sites/evaamsen/20…

My local high school cut: Grade 12 Advanced Functions (which is grade 12 math) Grade 10/12 business Grade 12 computer programming Grade 12 economics Grade 11 accounting Plus 24 other classes. Doug Ford is in the running for one of the worst premiers ever.

At a random high school, Gr. 11 #FrenchImmersion Ss are being called into guidance & told they can't earn their FI certificate or complete the program b/c the Gr. 12 FI elective had to be cut. @OntarioPCParty, how is THIS good for kids? #NoCutsToEducation #CutsHurtKids #OntEd

I may be nothing more than a “union boss”, but know *this* @FordNation: I’m not even 2 yrs removed from my classroom, my Ss, my Lisgar MS community, my colleagues. I’m 100% connected to what’s going on in schools, & I know what you’re up to. We all do. @metromorning #ETFO #onlab

.@fordnation I was declared surplus from my board today, along with 193 secondary teachers in Peel. Every single person that lost their job today will have NO job in September. Am I mistaken or did you and @LisaThompsonMPP say no job losses?? #OntEd #OSSTF

Mr Premier. With all respect our story is accurate and your own staff have acknowledged that to me. The government identified targets to save from OHIP and the Ministry identified services to be considered. I encourage everyone to read the full story you tweeted out.
This is another case of the media jumping the gun and not getting their facts straight before running with a story. I would never agree to this. I want to be clear: this was never my position, never my plan.
