Ministry of Education (who is also responsible for Child Care) sent a memo out last week directing centres to deny school age children space during the school day.
Because it is all about the kids, right?
Lecce gives not a fig about kids or families or clearly anyone’s rights

- We will not allow our rights to be legislated away. They may have a majority in the legislature. We have a majority across the province. We will take a stand and do everything we can to defend workers' rights and to defend public education.
- Hey @fordnation you didn’t have the dignity to be in Queens Park to vote to strip the rights of education workers? It’s clear who needs new leadership- not the the unions but the people of Ontario. #AbsenteeLeader
- If @fordnation & @Sflecce think that they are on the right side of history they are living in an echo chamber. The propaganda that is being churning out by @PCPressOffice tells a tale of insecurity. But this display of solidarity from @opffa is absolutely amazing! #RepealBill28
- Honestly - because we didn’t see this coming. This was never “about the kids” for Lecce, this was ALWAYS about feathering the nests of big business buddies & donors The diverting of public funds to private school- so predictable.
- Welcome to the “fuck around and find out” stage of the pandemic folks. Pardon our language but we have no other words to describe the ridiculousness that was just spouted. Oh and @Sflecce & @fordnation not showing was a real class act. Excellent leadership
- Legislation uses the “Not Withstanding Clause” on the Charter & Human Rights Code This was never about Education Workers. This was about stripping away the rights of workers in Ontario. The line is drawn. #NotOurGovernment #HandsOffOurRights #39KIsNotEnough
- How amazing is this! Our brothers & sisters in @LIUNA3000 putting down the tools and standing with education workers. This is real worker power.This Friday Nov 4th, there will be a province wide protest! LiUNA 3000 will stand by CUPE and education workers in solidarity.

- This week @Sflecce doubled down on EQAO - the govt will not cancel it. Funny how badly they want one type of test while failing to provide another 🤔🤔
- We can think of several other choices Stephen. Why is it that you are choosing the route of the bully, the aggressor & the coward? Are you unable to negotiate a fair deal? Or is it that the power growing amongst workers & communities is frightening? We are ready to bargain, you?
- We are at the table. We are focused on a deal that works for workers, students & families. Kids are in class. Don’t take advantage of our good nature. We need Bill 28 repealed & a good deal that pulls us out of low income & provides real services for kids. Why the delay?NEW - Why not recall the legislature now to repeal bill 28 now, Ford is asked. Premier says he will do it and that CUPE should “Put a little water in its wine“ as he has done. CUPE told CityNews yesterday that it would prefer the bill withdrawn now.
- We see Ford’s snowstorm Samaritan act,but we want to amplify the men & women who reported to our schools,our hospitals,our childcare ctrs,our road maintenance & paramedic hubs etc.These ppl don’t get the media attn but they also don’t disappear-let’s focus on the real heroes
- As to @Sflecce claim that our proposal is larger is larger than the entire education budget of Saskatchewan - the entire population of Saskatchewan is 1.174 million. The population of Toronto alone is 2.93 million. 🤔🤔🤔 again not the flex you were hoping for Stephen.
