So the money is good now, but now they want more members to be hired, so they can get more union dues. They do this for the kids of course.

Everyone is struggling not just them....we dont have an option other than to work and pray our jobs keep.

Dismantle their union and fire them all. They're useless overpaid greedy losers. Hire people who actually care for the kids. If they cared for the kids they would never strike and continue working under the old agreement until a deal was reached . #theyThinkYoureStupid

Listening to her is like listening to nails on a chalk board!

How about you don’t strike and you keep negotiating. Stop holding out kids hostage.

Abolish CUPE
Bring back Bill 28, Keeping Students in Class Act, 2022

wants blood from a stone. She is greedy. She said yesterday the govt has given them more of what they asked but it isn’t enough.She doesn’t want to yes bc somehow to Laura that is giving in to the govt. this has nothing to do with kids.

So, this time around, the Government gave CUPE what they wanted. But they’re still Striking. Why? Because this isn’t about your Kids. It’s a political attack against Ford’s government. Kids are being used as Pawns.

This has Nothing to do with Kids, they don't care about the kids. The union wants MONEY in there pocket Greedy

Funny as soon as the government cancels the bill they announce they are striking 🤔🤔🤔

So government repeals legislation and offers the union wages they like and agree with,...And The next day they file for a strike?!Over vague "services for students"?
Cupe basically now demanding more members to collect more union dues. And threatening to hurt kids to get it.😡

Sorry to say, CUPE leadership got it wrong. Hire more people can’t be so pressing that they put kids future in jeopardy.

Put CUPE and their workers in the food banks for good. Enough of this FREAKSHOW CIRCUS! Ontario parents and kids have had enough!
