Training Series: How to Stop the Cuts to Public Education
The Toronto District School Board (TDSB) is currently short $63.2 million because of Premier Ford’s refusal to fund education. This will lead to devastating cuts for students and schools; it means less teachers, less support workers, less caretakers, and more. You can learn more here.
Public education needs to be defended. That’s why we are hosting training sessions across the city to help you take action and fight back against cuts to education. Free training workshops are taking place in Scarborough, Etobicoke, North York, and York South—Weston! Check them out below and sign up.
You'll learn how to speak at a TDSB committee to oppose the cuts, how to contact your local MPP, how to have an impact on their decision-making, and more! Local pressure on your MPP is the greatest way to effect change.
