Larger classes, too few EAs, post-pandemic behavioural problems, increased violence, reduced staffing, poorly ventilated petri-dish classrooms, high absenteeism bc of illness and more.
Mr. Lecce MoE, connect the dots.
Ford government’s underfunding public education is costly.

Great news. Accountability should not be an “ask” though.
So much blatant shenanigans and misappropriation of public funds, it’s like whack-a-mole trying to investigate the Ford government’s “deals”.
As well as the Auditor General, the RCMP are presumably holding a mallet too.

CBC is a public broadcaster; it is not “state” media.
However, it appears to be the only media correcting misinformation and challenging out-of-context “facts” with non-partisan reporting. That doesn’t make it Libéral now or throughout the past 70 years.

$200 ($250 spec ed)
Per child attending private or public school.
Parents have to apply online.
Ironically called “catch up payments” when these amounts would provide little if any catch up…
Are enough qualified tutors available to help every Ontario student for say 2-3 hours?

The real cost —
Destruction of nature trails — hikers, joggers, cyclists, classes, families, bird watchers (it’s on a migratory path)
🪓 800 trees 🦉
Pebble beach: fishes populate water, also a rest area for migrating birds.
All this destruction for what?
Not “for the people”.

Let’s not forget the debacle to come—the secret leasing of public land in Ontario Place to Austrian-based Therme to build a mega “wellness if you’re wealthy” centre on the West Island. Then it’s the Ontario Science Centre—on leased land the city and a conservation authority own.

The funds are urgently needed for staffing and equipping our schools.
Giving parents “up to” $250 per child for their “catching up is ludicrous.
Yet another bribe — distributing taxpayers’ money as if it’s largesse, meanwhile dismantling education and healthcare.
