We want to remind Premier Ford that this is 2018, not 1998, and our curriculum and school system must reflect this reality. Follow us for news & info.

In a single release the Ontario government is building a culture of fear for educators. This is an attack on #ETFO members and our call to action for all professional educators to use their trained judgement to create safe learning environments for all kids. #ONpoli #OntEd

I don't see why parents can't use it to complain about their children being taught an out of date curriculum, or one that does not teach the history of our indigenous citizens, and their treatment in residential schools

How many times does it need to repeated "THERE IS NO 2014 HEALTH CURRICULUM!"
This is going to get ugly :(

Couldn't agree more! "We expect our teachers... to fulfill their obligations to parents and children when it comes to what our students learn in the classroom,” #ETFO has stated this repeatedly over the past several weeks. @ETFOeducators

2005, Canada became the 4th country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage after the enactment of the Civil Marriage Act. Same-sex adoption is legal in all provinces & territories. But, Ford "will act" if Teachers talk about it! @ETFOeducators #shame

Ontario’s proposed snitch line pits parents against teachers to create adversarial relations and seeks to undermines what is already a positive relationship. Let’s focus on what is truly needed in #education – funding. #onpoli #canlab

So, where can we report the complete opposite of that? Teachers save lives through their pedagogical and content choices each day, and many parents would be happy to report as much!

Handgun snitch-line?
No.
Drugs snitch-line?
Nah.
A snitch-line to report teachers who use the words “penis” and “vagina” to teach sex-ed?
Welcome to the @fordnation education system!

Parents, please: If you have a concern, before contacting the Provincial Gov't - try these things:
1) Talk to the teacher
2) Talk to the Principal
3) Talk to a Superintendent
4) Talk to your elected Trustee
The majority of issues can be solved through the first two calls. – at Windsor, Ontario

Why stop at sex-ed ? Why not extend the snitch line to history, social science, English and French ? What if some adventurous teacher wants to teach New Math instead of Old Math ? Why not have everyone reporting and snitching on everyone ? Did wonders in East Germany.

Where is the snitch line I can contact to report my concerns about this government spending piles of taxpayer money on unnecessary and destructive teacher snitch lines?

Going back to 2014 Ontario curriculum is a roll back on health education, it means we go back to 1998 sex-ed. No mention of consent, bullying, or #LGBTQ. That’s not inclusive or safe education for kids or families. Shameful and unnecessary rollback by Ford #onpoli #canlab

This teacher thanks you. The Harris years were marked by relentless attacks against the public school system and teachers. Ford is carrying on from where Harris left off. Your support warms my heart and brings tears of thankfulness to my eyes. #forthestudents

Flashback to one week ago today: #ETFO members and other concerned groups joined together at Queen's Park to protest the Ontario government's repeal of the 2015 Health & Physical Education Curriculum. etfo.ca/DefendingWorkingCond… #etfoam2018

“Love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair."
On the seventh anniversary of Jack's death his powerful words of hope and positive change are more true now than ever. Reject division, embrace hope — and we'll change the world. #DearJack
