Ontario has cut 5,000 classroom positions since 2018. Yes, cell phones are a distraction. The real problem is the underfunding of public schools. #onted #onpoli. How many positions has your school board lost? See the board-by-board breakdown below. monitormag.ca/articles/ontar…
Barftastic and wrong headed… AND, before too many folks climb on high horses, it’s a view shared across party lines. All orders of govt have said this about ag land they plan to replace with factories. Jeffrey Sachs said similar when promoting SDG-driven green energy projects.

@ColinDMello It's pretty hard for the public to have a role in decision making if the government withholds information on what is one of the most important provincial public policy issues.
This capital gain debate is another distraction. The richest 20% owns 68% of Canada's wealth; the bottom 40% owns 3% (StatCan, Daily, 24-04-17). To change the distribution, we ought to heavily tax land rent - starting with capital gains on principal residences #canpoli
The richest 1.5% of taxfilers collect 61% of capital gains. The Top 1.5%'s average capital gains are 101 times larger than for the bottom 98.5%.
This news marks a monumental milestone in Canada’s journey to address systemic racism in Canada. crrf-fcrr.ca/2024/04/crrf-w…
Today is Equal Pay Day in Ontario. April 16th represents how far into 2024 the avg woman must work to earn what her male colleague earned in 2023. It’s 68₵ in ON & 68₵ for all Cdn women too but much larger for Indigenous & racialized women, newcomers & women w/ disabilities.1/4
.@ccpa's new 5-part report on rent regulations examines rent data in Ontario, explains rent controls & summarizes relevant research on the topic. Read part 1 for a breakdown of the various pieces of rent regulation, including RGIs & vacancy regulations ⬇️ buff.ly/49Eb1xZ
Equal Pay Day this year is April 16, 2024. It symbolizes how far into 2024 the average woman must work to earn what the average man earned in 2023. Learn more about the coalition work taking place, find resources, and ways to take action here: equalpaycoalition.org
It’s Equal Pay Day and after all these years women only make 68 cents for every dollar men make
“All capital for non-market housing shouldn’t come from government, but all government (housing) capital should be for non-market housing”: @ricardo_tranjan at the #CHRACongress
Delighted to see the wonderful @SheilaBlockTO receive the Charles Taylor Prize for Excellence in Policy Research! Well-deserved recognition for a brilliant, progressive career. #onpoli #cdnpoli #cdnecon
While @fordnation @OntarioPCCaucus continue to #gaslight us all with their new "housing bill" (really helping developer donours) they refuse to listen to experts shouting for YEARS that their own policy - refusing REAL rent control - is a big part of the crisis in affordability
Show us the real numbers then. We said it right in our press conference; come out from the back room and show us how the MegaSpa isn’t going to be a drain of taxpayer dollars. We used assumptions because your government is hiding financial info from the public. #onpoli #topoli
Ontario spent a billion dollars on staffing agencies last year! For-profit agencies are draining hospital funding and wasting our tax dollars, which should be used to increase full-time, permanent and good paying jobs. ottawa.citynews.ca/2024/03/25/ont…
Among all provinces, ON’s per capita spending on public services is dead last. By a lot. Doctors, nurses, teachers are fleeing. Food bank use is at record levels. Tent cities are everywhere. Profit & privatization is the overarching goal. #ONpoli thestar.com/opinion/contri…
ONA members are now picketing @extendicare HQ, the leading for-profit provider of care and services for seniors across Canada. Registered Nurses, NPs, RPNs and PSWs are demanding that Extendicare prioritize seniors' #CareNotProfit! #FightLocal #onpoli
"The pandemic recession was all about the service sector in particular, women and marginalized workers working on the front lines in exposed occupations," explains @ccpa senior researcher @ScottKatherineJ. #canfem vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/03/24/pan…
For a driver who fills a 50-litre tank once a week, the ongoing cut to the provincial gas tax means saving $148 a year. For the provincial treasury, it means forgoing revenue of about $1.2 billion a year. #onpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Grateful for the warm welcome at the Ontario Bioscience Innovation Organization's IWD event. Our province’s economy depends on women’s ability to participate without barriers, especially in areas where they are underrepresented – such as entrepreneurship. (1/2)
Today is a great day. At just over 6 years post esophagectomy, @jkweeden is 'NED' (no evidence of disease). The 5 year survival rate for esophageal cancer is less than 20% - we are so, so grateful to be on the right side of that statistic, thanks to great care & much support.
