Thank you to @CBCLorenda for reporting on this story today for the CBC. For the record, I don't actually post on "TikTok", @PaulCalandra, and school principals do not actually have the power to change prices at Staples.

Minister of Ed @PaulCalandra is sticking to the party message of “unprecedented levels of funding”.
When you increase funding by 10%, but inflation goes up by 21% in the same time period, that’s effectively a DECREASE in funding.
School boards are in crisis mode.

Paul Calandra never wants to be held accountable. He will not tell you that only he can fire CEOs that are hired at school boards. And he also doesn't explain why we need CEOs since public education shouldn't be focused on making money.

Paul said something about trustees overspending abroad? They make this a bigger deal than it is. The issue is really that schools don't receive enough funding. Look into his spending abroad instead.

PaulCalandra should be ashamed for the ways in which this bill is a direct attack on some of our most vulnerable students and their families. Continuing to starve education and the crisis which continues in classrooms, will be their legacy; corruption at the core! Shame on the corruption! 😡🍎
Doug Ford is pushing ahead with a final vote on Bill 33 — a bill that replaces elected trustees with Conservative insiders and cuts the supports kids rely on. We’re fighting to delay the vote. Stay tuned.
