Actually Minister Lecce, students have NOT been out of school for over 11 full school years since 1989. Once again, Lecce is trying to shift responsibility for school disruptions. It's time to put students first & invest in their education & future success #ProPublicEd #OntEd

Let's not forget that Ford had no issue giving 73 MPPs on his side of the House a pay bump of $16,000. But education workers earning $40,000 or less are greedy and unreasonable? Make it make sense, @fordnation. #OntEd #39kIsNotEnough #ONpoli

“Why is Doug Ford building a surplus on the back of Ontario woman” says interim Liberal Leader John Fraser, who points out that educational support staff are largely female.

Stop Doug Ford’s attack on Ontario workers! I just sent an email to say: hands off workers’ right to strike! Will you send one too? #OnLab #OnPoli #EnoughIsEnough ofl.ca/action/email-hands-of… @CTFFCE

CUPE members have “taken one for the team” for years. As the lowest-paid education workers doing some of the most important jobs in schools, they should not have to continue to work 2-3 jobs to pay rent. Nobody wants the chaos of a strike. Please bargain fairly, @Sflecce.

CUPE, under the leadership of @waltonmom, is fighting for ALL workers in Ontario. If the government strips education workers of their collective bargaining rights and imposes a contract on them, you'll be next. @sflecce #onted

Education workers are the backbone of schools. ECEs, EAs, custodians, clerical staff, library staff and more, ensure safe and excellent learning environments for kids. They deserve better. Our communities deserve better. Send a message: dontbeabully.ca #OnPoli #OntEd

"You can't have a govt... saying we have no money to give ed workers, then provide all these random payments to parents... [They're] not paying them a livable wage, you're not going to retain the best staff & there's going to be a massive #OntEd crisis." cbc.ca/news/canada/london/lo…
