The Doug Ford government is setting its sites on conservation authorities for the fifth time, merging the watershed protection agencies. Staff tell @fatimabsyed.bsky.social it may ‘slow approvals, create confusion’ — not to mention it's leaving them with ‘whiplash.’ thenarwhal.ca/ontario-cons...

These photos from my Grade 1/2 classroom last June are a reminder that Toronto schools don’t have air conditioning and these are the learning conditions many (most?) students will be in this week.
