I was the soul participant within a protest against inappropriate teacher conduct at #Oakville Trafalgar High School (OTHS), this is my side of the event. 🧵
For those not in the clue about the situation, a trans shop teacher at OTHS in Oakville, Ontario, Canada was recently shown to of worn a pair of large fake silicone breast during his instructions. (Picture is NSFW) 
Is it safe to say so much of what we have come to love (and hate) about Ontario will be forever changed on Thursday night?
As a Dad of young children, & teacher, I'm struggling with what a PC majority might mean for school communities, the environment, and our health care system.

I have knocked on doors, made phone calls and talked with friends and neighbours. I am voting with a few on Thursday in order to help get out the vote, but I'm afraid it won't be enough.
At this time, I really think the only chance we have of stopping Ford and his PCs is to swallow our preferred party pride, check our hearts, and vote for the candidate most likely to defeat the PC candidate, riding by riding.
#onpoli #VoteFordOut here are key ridings where you can make a difference by voting strategically to prevent the Doug Ford Conservatives from forming government.
Ajax riding, the strategic vote is Ontario Liberal. Otherwise Ford may win this seat. Don't be fooled by his candidate that was on the school board, they have no interest in public education. NONE.
#Brampton East a riding that could MOVE to Doug Ford's PC's if the voters don't support the NDP in this riding.
Great to see funding of #Oakville HS and #Milton PS. Now we need the MOE to update their benchmarks so the building process is efficient. Waiting 6 months for ATP for Milton #11! Can't start build without it. Taxpayers deserve appropriate school facilities for kids. #onted
Delays increase building costs. Delays increase # portables and transportation costs. Delays can split neighbourhoods and even families into various holding schools.
ATP (Approval to Proceed) roadblocks happen for every single project in our Board and our estimates are accurate every single time. We have to meet, clarify, beg and shout every single time. The are costly consequences to the delays every single time.

NDP Leader @AndreaHorwath: London Health Sciences announced they will be cutting the equivalent of 165 full-time positions due to budget challenges. Can the Health Minister explain how eliminating 165 front-line health workers will help eliminate hallway medicine? #onpoli
Horwath: London hospital CEO: “It's been very tough to operate in this environment. To operate a business where expenses are inflationary and revenue is flat…” Hospital funding falling behind inflation a cause of hallway medicine under Liberals—a recipe for hallway medicine now.
Horwath: The Ford govt cuts:
✂️Cuts to public health.
✂️Cuts to ambulance services.
✂️Cuts to cancer screening.
And now eliminating frontline hospitals health staff.
If this is healthcare after one year of Ford govt we don’t want to see what the next three years will bring.
