A key focus of @PeelSchools is student voice and choice which empowers our learners. So it is disappointing that money trumps voice and choice with the PDSB decision to force a move to D2L as the ONLY option for a VLE. chng.it/ZwWHJDjZFF

The sad irony: The "freedom" convoy actually had a lot of freedom...To travel across the country. To honk their horns all day & night. To party in hot tubs. To occupy Ottawa for 3 straight weeks. Privilege is having freedom & having no clue that you have it.

This is how you protest. 30 000 educators, parents and students peacefully protested @fordnation’s cuts to #onted. Not a single swastica, confederate flag, GoFundMe grift, or public pooping. #FluTrucksKlan #Ottawa #VoteThemAllOut2022

NFL overtime rules suck! After such a sensational game, Josh Allen’s only mistake was calling tails in OT. #BillsMafia

Thank you @sid_seixeiro and @dinapugliese for being the ONLY critically minded reporters who could see through the PR stunt pulled by @fordnation. Thanks for restoring the faith in this teacher, that critical thinking has not been completely abandoned.
Premier Doug Ford is receiving applause - and facing backlash - after publicizing the fact that he helped people during yesterday's storm. @sid_seixeiro and @dinapugliese share their thoughts.

Find out my son was exposed to Covid before the break, 6 days after the exposure. Get a PCR test on day 7. Results back 18 days after the exposure. Now no PCR tests. Private contractor of tests is making lots of money. @fordnation how much is your kick back?#VoteThemAllOut2022

If the New Year and school reopening was a horse race. This is a good laugh amid the stress.

I think the @fordnation press conference to address the school situation should be held in a classroom, packed with 32 reporters wearing only surgical masks and with the windows open… and it should last six hours with maskless snack breaks. #onted

An Ontario statistics story. Highest (5790) case numbers in Ontario. With 23% unvaccinated, there should be 23% of unvaccinated testing positive, 23% in the hospital and 23% in an ICU. Unvaccinated make up 25% of positive cases, 69% in hospital and 81% in the ICU.

How do you know that Ontario is facing a highly transmissible variant, a shortage of rapid tests, a vaccine distribution problem, and rising COVID cases? The premier of this province @fordnation cannot be found. Though there have been some @fordnation sightings at his cottage!

Any Ontario parents of school aged children. The Provincial government cut half a billion dollars from the education budget. I guess they have to find some way to pay for highway 413 which will pave over a nature reserve. @Sflecce @fordnation #VoteThemAllOut2022

Hey Premier @fordnation, now that you’re starting to re-implement @OntLiberal policies that you cut, how about also reversing your cuts to: - Paid sick days - Free tuition & OSAP funding - OHIP+ - Mental health - Green energy programs - Legal aid Just to name a few… #onpoli

Good News from the @US_FDA. Hope @GovCanHealth follows suit. Hard to argue that @pfizer is experimental anymore. #GetVaccinatedNow

It’s just occurred to me that maybe the reason we haven’t seen Doug Ford for going on three weeks now is because he’s at summer camp with Arthur.

Hey @fordnation, our kids don’t need @sflecce to pose as a doctor. Ontario’s doctors have already told us what is needed to make our schools safe. We’re demanding a real plan that listens to doctors and keeps our kids safe!
⁦@fordnation⁩ and ⁦@Sflecce⁩ do not understand that their job involves caring for all Ontarian’s, not just their donors. ⁦⁦@Sflecce⁩ give up on the photo ops and spin and get a plan. ottawacitizen.com/opinion/pe…
Pretty exceptional cabinet intro: NDP leader Wab Kinew came up to new Indigenous Relations Minister Alan Lagimodiere to confront him on what he just said about the people who started residential schools having good intentions at the time #mbleg
