What’s the plan for 4-11 year olds who will be returning to classrooms in September? Actually… where’s the “plan”?
As of today, half of all adults in Ontario are fully vaccinated against #COVID19! 💉🎉💉
Let’s continue to vaccinate even more Ontarians and enjoy a #TwoDoseSummer.
If you are 12+ and haven't received your #COVID19 vaccine, book your appointment now: ontario.ca/bookvaccine

BREAKING: ETFO, @OECTAProv and @osstf are individually filing new Charter challenges against the Ford government's attack on democracy. This is about protecting basic democratic rights. Read the joint statement shar.es/aWo0Hp #onpoli #canlab #onted

To cling to power, Ford needs us to forget that his government abandoned Ontarians and trampled over our Charter Rights with his abuse of the notwithstanding clause – but #WeWontForget.

Today is School Principals' Day! The #UCDSB is lucky to have over 100 dedicated Principals and Vice-Principals that work with our students, parents, staff and community to ensure our schools fulfil the needs of our students, both in the classroom and beyond.

Big shout-out to all of the School Boards that are providing educators with one or two days next week to transition (pivot) to remote emergency learning! On behalf of 83,000 #ETFO members... thank you for doing the right thing! @ETFOeducators @OPSBA

Despite what Ford and Lecce announced educators, even those in hot spots, are not being prioritized. Many can't even book an appointment. The lack of planning by this government is rash, reckless, and dangerous experiment on people's lives. #onpoli #FordVaccineFailure

Even for @Fordnation and @sflecce, cutting $1.6 billion to #onted, by secret memo, when we will still be grappling with COVID-19, is a new low. We will all suffer from this govts callous disregard for public services. #onpoli efis.fma.csc.gov.on.ca/faab/…

The March Break trial balloon is intended to distract us from the Ford govt’s failure to manage the COVID response in a way that would’ve kept schools open throughout the pandemic, and it’s causing more unnecessary stress for students, families and educators. #onpoli #onted
UPDATED: The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario says it "strongly opposes" any changes to the 2021 March Break. #ottnews

The strategy of distract and deflect: Ford and Lecce avoiding responsibility for their failed COVID school reopening plan. #ETFO #thankyoudavidfisman #SafetyFirst

Good news! The Ontario government has clarified that BOTH education workers and educators are included in the list of essential workers for the vaccine in Phase 2 starting April.
➡️ It takes all #onted workers to deliver quality learning and support public education. #onpoli

Think of how different things could have been for our students and our schools if @Sflecce and @fordnation sought the advise of educators last summer as we begged them to listen to common sense solutions to reopen safely.
I didn't have to be this way.

It's day two with every #onted student and educator engaged in distance learning. We are still waiting for the so-called comprehensive online learning management system and training that the Minister of Ed tweeted about on Sunday, but educators continue to do great work!

With people dying at an alarming rate in our LTC homes, the vaccine sitting in freezers for over a week, the Minister of Finance off vacationing in St Barts, and the Premier caught lying for him, this photo op is simply a distraction! Don’t be distracted!
The Moderna COVID-19 vaccine is a game changer for Ontario. This vaccine will enable us transport it to our most vulnerable in #LTC homes. We will start administering it this week, adding to the over 22,000 vaccines Ontario has already administered.

The Ford government isn't listening to address the urgent health and safety needs in our schools but ETFO is!
In December we held four town halls and over 15,000 of you joined us for more than 40 minutes. Your voice matters. #onted #ETFOstrong
