Dear Doug Ford and Paul Calandra,

Make students' spirits bright this holiday season by investing in #OntEd and smaller class sizes.

Sincerely,
- Ontario

Help give the gift to #OntEd students that keeps on giving: smaller class sizes and more one-on-one time with their teachers. #Kidsplained

Smaller class sizes = bigger dreams ❤️

This isn't just Donnub's story.

Ontario teachers are facing a lack of resources, inadequate mental health supports, and growing class sizes.

We need real government investment to best support #OntEd students and let #CatholicTeachers like Donnub do what they do best – teach!

#CatholicTeachers are fired up at our booth at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto, connecting with parents and communities from across Ontario to talk #OntEd.

Be sure to stop by and say hi 👋. We're here every day until close on November 16.

Our booth at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto is a big hit – especially our games, bracelet making, colouring activities, and amazing prizes!

Don’t let #OntEd schools become a ghost of what they were 👻

#Bill33 puts politics before kids.

MPPs are debating this scary legislation now – add your name and make your voice heard: knowmore.ca/bill33

Stronger schools start with local voices🏫💪

Tell your MPP that #Bill33 and the govt’s school takeover is not about strengthening #OntEd or supporting students – it’s about silencing parents and the local communities who know our schools best.

#Bill33 fails students, parents, teachers – everyone in our #OntEd schools.

The Ontario government's legislation is not about strengthening education – it’s about silencing parents and the local communities who know our schools best. #OnPoli

Happy #PrideMonth #Onted! 🌈💖✨

Today’s announcement from Minister of Education Paul Calandra, that the Ford Conservative government is taking over more school boards, is a thinly veiled attempt to shift the blame for this government’s chronic underfunding and refusal to invest in our #OntEd students.

Doug Ford is borrowing from Trump’s playbook to push legislation that:

👎Distracts from chronic #OntEd underfunding
👎Strips local decision making
👎Puts schools at risk – when students need help the most

Watch and share ➡️ #OECTA President René Jansen in de Wal debunks 3 myths about Ford's bill.

Here's Doug Ford's track record since coming to office:

😡#OntEd underfunding has grown to $6.3 billion
😡We have 3,400 fewer teachers
😡Only 1 in 4 schools has the mental health supports students need

Ford just has other priorities, like rewarding his developer buddies.

🚨 #StanleyCup-edition pop quiz, #OntEd! 🚨

What’s as Canadian as hockey? 🍁

a) Maple Syrup
b) Canadian Tuxedo
c) Publicly Funded Education

When we invest in #OntEd, Ontario grows.

Doug Ford needs to stop the cuts and stop risking Ontario’s future.

It's simple: investing in #OntEd schools today means a stronger Ontario tomorrow.

So, why is Premier Doug Ford risking our future?

Ontario's future starts in our #OntEd schools – not a luxury spa.

It's past time for Premier Doug Ford to get his priorities straight.

A strong Ontario starts in our schools.

So why is Doug Ford shortchanging #OntEd students by $6.3 billion?

Everything we're proud of starts in our classrooms – as Ontarians and as Canadians. Ontario grows when we invest in #OntEd.

A reminder for Doug Ford every time he's driving on the Gardiner Expressway in Toronto. #CatholicTeachers

BREAKING: The Ford government's proposed budget fails to address years of relentless cuts to #OntEd.

When will this government realize that our students are our future – and that everything we're proud of starts in the classroom? #CatholicTeachers

Help amplify this #KnowMore postcard from our #OntEd communities.

Tell Minister of Education Paul Calandra and Premier Doug Ford that "made in Canada" starts by investing in what matters most for Ontario’s future – our students.

👏👏👏
 
Ontario NDP MPP Alexa N. Gilmour takes Minister of Education Paul Calandra to task for disingenuously claiming "record levels of funding," despite the fact that the Ford government has cut per-student #OntEd funding by $1,500.
