In modern history, unions have been the only effective voice working people have ever had. Workers have fought long and hard, sacrificing personal freedoms, in order to provide fundamental rights and conditions for workers right across this country.

Some people are saying that @osbcucscso workers deserve only $39k because theirs is “unskilled” work. Here I am wondering exactly what “skills” are required to be Minister of Education. 🤷🏾♂️

This whole "the NYT ruined Wordle!" thing is a great case study in confirmation bias. It also gives us some insight into human nature that helps explain how conspiracy theories work.
Congratulations to my colleague, mentor and one of my closest friends! Thank you to everyone in Clayton’s life who contributed their time and energy! @claytell you are the epitome of Teaching Excellence. I hope to become even a fraction of the outstanding educator that you are 🎉
Something pretty cool happened today. 🙏🏾🎉🥳 @ms_e_demeter @MsVerduynNoon @PeelSchools @DavidSuzukiSS @SuzukiScience #PMAwards

At school, Black students should feel PROUD of their Blackness. They should feel empowered and respected. @PeelSchools

-teachers need to make more than professional athletes, CEO’s, and all of Hollywood combined
-homeschooling will NOT be on our future plan after this is over
-never too early for a drink

This pandemic has already revealed that:
- schools are so much more than just schools.
- many people now realize how tough it is to be a teacher and that teachers are grossly underpaid.
- teachers are irreplaceable and essential to learning and education.

At the end of all this, let’s try to remember that the geniuses who told us not to worry about coronavirus are the same geniuses telling us not to worry about #climatechange

Here's a thread for what teachers are asking for because I am sick of #lyingLecce and the PC hacks who put party before people:

Why Are Teachers Leaving The Profession?
•Inadequate preparation for new teachers
•Lack of support
•Class sizes
•Workload
•Low salaries
•Snowplow parents
•Their time isn’t respected
•Better opportunities elsewhere
•Toxic cultures
MUST DO BETTER #EdChat

We have been here before. And we aren’t standing for it.
Minister @sflecce, listen to community. Independent black reviewers need to be at the table for review of anti-Black racism in @PeelSchools! #onpoli

"@OCT_OEEO approved a membership fee of $170 for 2020. This $20 increase is driven by, and in-line, with inflation rates."
Funny how the now government run agency can increase our fees due to inflation, but not our pay/benefits🤔
