At Queens Park, an estimated 10,000 people have come together today to stand up for publicly funded education! #OntEdUnited #OntEdSolidaire – at Toronto, Ontario

Four communities. One powerful message. From Ottawa, London, Sudbury, and Thunder Bay, education workers, families, students, and labour allies came out today to stand up for strong, properly funded public education. Across Ontario, we’re making our voices heard! #OSSTF #OntEd #OntEdUnited

“And our members have been saying for far too long, eight years under this government, that they can't continue to do more with less. And they can't continue to hold a system up with the number of cuts that have been made in the system.” The Ford government’s cuts have consequences: larger classes, fewer supports, and growing pressure on teachers and education workers. 🎙️ On this week's @rabbleca podcast, #OSSTF President @marthahradowy discusses what’s at stake for Ontario’s students and why OSSTF/FEESO members are preparing to take a strike vote in November. 🎧 Podcast episode: bit.ly/4BllQUw #OntEd #OntEdUnited
