Ontario teachers don’t need credit cards, they need a gov't that properly funds classrooms!

#OSSTF President @marthahradowy.bsky.social shared what’s really behind the Premier’s comments: chronic underfunding that leaves educators paying out of pocket for basic supplies.

🏠 Stable housing = stable schools = stronger communities.
As Ontario introduces legislation undermining residential lease protection, we must remember: families feel secure at home, students show up, educators can focus, schools succeed—communities rise.
Let’s put stability first. #onpoli #onted
