'Years from now, when the students have won their demands & society’s attitudes have shifted, the same institutions now repressing them will be celebrating their resistance–as if they supported it all along,' says Laura Walton. #Gaza #ceasefirenow #canlab rabble.ca/labour/student…

Next week, a motion is coming to City Council to limit our ability to protest- potentially impacting workers across Toronto, including CUPE Local 79 members in a bargaining year.
City Council should instead encourage nuanced dialogue and the right to freedom of assembly.
The turnout for the #FundOurSchools Day of Action was incredible. Teachers, EAs, parents & kids all say the same thing: Conservative cuts are deeply damaging our schools
Join the fight with TYR Labour Council, @osstftoronto, @elemteachersto, and @cupe4400 at FundOurSchools.ca
What A Day (of Action)! ✊
The rain wasn’t enough to stop the #FundOurSchools Campaign as we took Toronto by storm to demand Conservative MPPs stop cuts to public education and give us the schools we deserve!
'Each time I hear Pierre Poilievre [say his] 'common sense' slogan, [I remember the] turmoil during the Common Sense Revolution of Mike Harris.'
It's been almost 3 decades of cuts & austerity. Enough is Enough
