    Labour Force Survey shows Ontario lost 11,600 full-time jobs in December. Since Premier Ford took office, 94.7% of all net new jobs created in Ontario have been part-time. Is this Government for the employees? Is this Government for the businesses? Doesn't look like it.

    i mean obviously this entire tweet is a mess but can i just say i'm so tired of the "stop being so angry" shit that is constantly thrown at women to invalidate their voice. I've seen firsthand the way that conservative male MPs act in the house and they don't get ANY of this.

    The fear mongering by the ON PC Government is despicable. But using misinformation and fear mongering to get legislation passed that will deeply hurt Ontario is frightening.

    Doug Ford has spent the last two weeks defending the indefensible, and attacking the integrity of decorated police veterans who had the courage to speak out. Enough is enough. People deserve answers.

    Should the care of our children and babies, the ones whom we have a sacred duty to care for and protect, be more about making money than the quality of care we are obligated to provide??? Doug Ford and the Conservatives seems to think so.

    Much easier to focus when you are in a healthy environment! “Student behavior is a much stronger predictor of future success than test scores are. Teachers who helped students improve their behavior were 10x as effective at improving graduation rates”
