Every major Ontario teachers' union member is working on an expired contract...again. We did this for two years last time, with no job action. We won't do it again!
Every major Ontario teachers’ union has a strike vote scheduled for this November. #canlab

Musk is trying to cover for Trump, but he is surely lying. Shame! 🇺🇦

Now is exactly the right time to remind parents about all the consumables that are no longer being provided, due to Ford cuts. This really makes the cuts real and tangible. For example, I won't be providing tissue boxes out of pocket anymore...except to my kids' teachers. #onted

Education is worth fighting for.
Behind every student is a teacher or educator who believed in them and gave them the resources to succeed. Now it's time to give our schools the resources to succeed, too.
Today, thousands of people showed up at Queen’s Park to send that message. When Ontario’s legislature resumes on Tuesday, I'll make sure that message gets delivered.
Did you seriously just try and "both sides" the illegal invasion of Ukraine by Russia? Ukraine has ZERO responsibility to negotiate with these criminal terrorists! Your terms of service can go to hell - you can see them when you get there, jerk.
Correct.
Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be.
Starshield, a different system, is controlled by the US government. What they decide to do is up to them.
Ukraine military violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people. That loophole was closed last week.
Starlink remains critical to the defense of Ukraine, as it is the only system that cannot be jammed or blown up, at least for now. Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately. This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact.
Starlink was also crucial to preventing Russia from overrunning Ukraine in the early days of the war, as all other means of communication were destroyed or jammed by Russia.
SpaceX has done more to defend Ukraine than any private company on Earth BY FAR.
That said, I have nothing but UTTER CONTEMPT for the virtue-signaling evil warmongers who push for endless slaughter and offer no realistic solution to the conflict. May you burn in hell.
End of story.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney points out that Elon Musk and Trump's crippling of Starshield, to help Russia, has led to deaths and reduced Ukraine's ability to stop indiscriminate attacks on innocent people.

Supporting our education workers is supporting our students.
Proud to stand with my Ottawa caucus colleagues, education workers, and public school advocates at today’s education rally in Ottawa.
Our message to Doug Ford is simple: Bargain in good faith. Smaller class sizes. Safer schools. More staff and student supports. Fair wages. Proper funding for public education.
Listen to education workers and students. #onpoli #onted #ontedunited #ontedsolidaire

🔥 DOUG FORD, YOU’VE UNDERESTIMATED US!
ETT members showed up BIG today! ✊🏿
Enough of downloading work onto teachers. Enough of underfunded schools.
OUR GOODWILL IS NOT A FUNDING MODEL!
We’re organized. We’re united. And we’re not taking it anymore!
#FundOurSchools #ETT
This take. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Elon claims Ukraine violated service terms.
Not good enough! This country is desperately trying to stop an illegal invasion. They didn't start this war.
You are either on the side of the innocents, or you are on the side of the invaders.
Shame! 🇺🇦

Don "The Con". Why not do it now? 🤔
NEW: President Trump doubles down on his promise to give every adult U.S. citizen a $5,000 check if Republicans win the House and Senate in the midterms.
“Our country is doing so well under Republican leadership that only I can make this promise to you. It's a promise.”
“If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate, I am going to give all adult citizens in the United States of America $5,000.”

Jim Carrey Just Explained Depression Better Than Most Therapists
Jim Carrey: “Sadness is just from happenstance, whatever happens to you or doesn’t happen to you.”
“Depression is your body saying, ‘I don’t want to be this character anymore.’”
“You don’t want to carry this persona that you’ve created for the world.”
“I heard Jeff Foster talk about depression as ‘deep rest.’”
“Your body needs to be depressed. It needs deep rest from the character you’ve been trying to play.”
“Sometimes, what feels like breaking down can be a signal that something in your life needs attention.”

The hotel scandal is wild to me. not a huge amount of money at the end of the day, but absolutely brazen behaviour from Ford’s grifter MPPs.
And I’m calling BS that any of these ghouls “paid it back.”
Every single thing this government does is both incompetent and corrupt.

Stan Cho in 2019: again saying how he will treat taxpayer money with respect… before spending over $16,000 on hotel rooms 6km from his house.
