School board trustees likely to be eliminated by the end of the year. More boards to be placed in provincial takeover. But no mention of how we are actually going to fix crumbling schools, fix the spec ed funding formula, and address safety issues. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Today marks the #TransDayOfRemembrance. At a time of rising hate & government attempts to erase the identity of transgender people, it is vital we remember those lost and renew the fight for trans rights. ETT stands committed to making our classrooms and communities safe for all

A reminder to the Ford Conservative government: HANDS OFF OUR SCHOOLS! #CatholicTeachers proudly rallied alongside our #OnLab siblings and education-friendly MPPs at the steps of Queen’s Park today to denounce Bill 33 and call for the investments & support our students need!

ETT out in full force at Queen's Park with parents, teachers, community leaders, education unions, and more to protest @fordnation ramming through #Bill33 without proper debate or consultation. This bill won't fix the chronic underfunding of public education (1/2)

#Bill33 is not just "controversial" - it's a political ploy. @fordnation & @paulcalandra have been underfunding public education for years. This is a power grab - plain and simple. Read the full story at CityNews now toronto.citynews.ca/2025/11/19/bil…

Israel has just stolen Lebanese land - more than 4000 square metres of it - UNIFIL has notified that Israel has completely crossed the blue line and is erecting a wall and is occupying large swaths of Southern Lebanon.

Israel has killed 3002 people in Lebanon in the month of October alone and continues to mine and demolish all structures in Southern Lebanon.

The lowest-scoring applicants got the biggest payouts from Doug Ford’s $2.5B Skills Scam. The Labour Minister once admitted he hand-picked the winners and now is blaming bureaucrats. It's time for a full-forensic audit and accountability, Premier. #onpoli thestar.com/politics/provi…

Despite vocal opposition, the Ford government’s education bill is expected to pass in under an hour. A large crowd of critics is inside the legislature to oppose the bill. Paul Calandra says he’s reimagining the education system, critics call it a distraction. More to come.
