Protest at Queen's Park
On Saturday, April 21st I joined thousands of protesters from more than 90 labour and community groups as we chanted slogans and waved placards as part of a province-wide campaign to tell Premier Dalton McGuinty and his minority government its budget cannot stand. It was a successful demonstration of solidarity with a large showing of teachers in the crowd. Teachers from all age groups were present as McGuinty's proposed budget cuts affect all, regardless of age or experience. The government has awoken a "sleeping giant" and the giant is unhappy. Let's hope the minister is listening. After all his wife is an Ontario teacher!
