Ford gov freezes early childhood educator wages, failing to deliver promised $1/hr increase next year. Roughly 95 percent of ECEs in Ontario are women. Low wages a driver of recruitment and retention crisis in the sector and barrier to creation of much-needed childcare spaces.

The money Doug Ford has spent on ads (propaganda) would have covered the wage increase, and then some.

Why freeze the wages of early childhood educators? Do they not have to endure inflation like the rest of us? Why should they be forced to fall behind? Why is the #DougFord government trying to balance its books on the backs of these educators? #onpoli

I'll say it again for those in the back - if you fund public education properly you won't need to increase funding for police every year! Proactive vs reactive. #onted #onpoli yorkregion.com/news/york-reg…

New Provincial Funding Guidelines Freeze ECE Wage Floor and $1 Annual Increases in 2027. This doesn't bode well for #onted negotiations. #etfo #osstf #oecta #aefo #cupe share.google/h5UnEy4oze471B1…

The fact that Google felt comfortable even threatening this is evidence enough that the anti-trust hammer needs to be brought down on them hard. We've let these corporations get away with too much for too long.

Job force is dominated by women. So Trumpian of SuperDoug @fordnation to have his boot on the necks of women.

A wage freeze for the professionals who take care of society’s most precious young souls is a direct reflection of how little Doug cares for children and women.

The people (mostly women) who work with our youngest learners. Time and time again this government has shown it doesn't value educators. At what point will people say enough? #onted

So the Westons more than doubled their net worth from 9.3 Billion to 20.6 Billion during the COVID years and after. Guilty of fixing the price of bread. Time for a wealth tax now Be like Newsom in California

Proving once again that the online world created by billionaires and Russian troll farms is not the real world, tonight's Warsaw protest against the far-right.

This is how Doug Ford got away with crashing new home construction in Ontario: 1)controlling public hearings 2)consulting with themselves 3) misrepresenting Ont’s housing numbers without any backlash 👇

Canada will deny entry to any Russian and Belarusian athletes and staff, as long as the war in Ukraine continues, as per Mark Carney "If you're asking specifically about the World Junior's the Russians will not be there" This is despite the Court of Arbitration for Sport saying Russia should be allowed to participate in IIHF tournaments, with the next big tournament the WJC in Alberta this Christmas #cdnpoli

Doug Ford is buying himself a luxury private jet while patients wait on gurneys in hospital hallways. His ministers stay in luxury hotels on your dime while he lays off nurses. Doug Ford needs to explain why your money keeps ending up in his friends' pockets.

canada has a 20% youth unemployment rate, and notice how it’s “business groups” asking for it? this is exactly what i’ve been talking about. they bring over workers who aren’t given the same rights and use them to drive down labour costs
