Catholic Education has lost a giant. James Ryan’s collaborative leadership, humour, and dedication to workers was admired by all in labour. I will always cherish the advice and encouragement he gave me over the years. Prayers to his family and @TECT951 colleagues. 📸:AGM 2019

All I'm saying is, I wish that people (politicians, the media, the general public) were as worked up about underfunded schools, classes being cancelled due to lack of a teacher, school repairs, mental health supports, and clean air, as they are about cellphones. 🤷🏿‍♂️ #OntEd

“Pierre Poilievre was reportedly reluctant to congratulate Canada’s amazing athletes for their historic performance at #Paris2024 because his campaign felt it went against his ‘Canada is broken’ narrative. He only did so after being called out by the media. The Conservatives’ politicization of Canadian pride needs to stop!” Observations from Montreal cultmtl.com/2024/08/observat…

My take on your 5 yrs 🔥Imposed Bill 124 capping wages - you lost in court & had to pay us 4.25% retro on top of the 3% 🔥Stripped Ed wrks rights w/ Bill 28 - we walked out - you had to repeal in record time & pay highest wage increase to date 🔥Cut funding by $1300/kid #YouFail
Reflections on five years of service as Ontario's Minister of Education.  A tenure that competes with Bette Stephenson.  I am forever grateful to my team (past and present) for being the gold standard in politics. Here is a collection of some of our transformational work. 🧵
