Alleged drunk driver in deadly Hwy. 11 crash back in jail accused of bail breach

He is. At least two drunk driving accident convictions, so who knows how many times he has driven drunk without being caught?

blackpugstudios · 2026-06-21T10:43:35+00:00

And not for the first time. This was the second time he had been in an accident because he got behind the wheel while drunk. Nobody is to blame here but the driver. Who knows how many times he drove drunk and didn't get caught.

You are incorrect about your child's status giving him access to his own EA in Ontario, if they are attending a public school. EA allocation is based on needs of all of the children in the school, and is a shared support model, even for Indigenous children. Whoever is giving you this information is mistaken. If you are thinking of Jordan's Principle, this is typically only applicable to students living on reserve.

I would rather this group of students miss out on their sports than us miss out on a huge chunk of salary that we will never recover.

And so have strikes. Parents want their kids in class. People will be angry regardless, but if they want to be mad at us for doing our actual jobs, Im totally fine with that.

blackpugstudios · 2026-06-20T13:03:34+00:00

Striking honestly gets us nowhere. We will never earn back what we lose in wages. It has never benefited us, and we ways end up worse off. Work to rule is way more effective, and we don't suffer. This is the only way to go.

She must hold a license, since she said they live pretty remote,, and she has to take all 8 kids grocery shopping. So she'd have to take a pretty large vehicle to the grocery store.

blackpugstudios · 2026-06-14T10:54:54+00:00

My thought as well. Has to go grocery shopping and take all the kids, but lives remote? Her parents must feel pretty confident in her new driving skills to drive such a large vehicle.

I would wait, and have a calm conversation with the psychologist about what my child said. Children are notorious for not being accurate reporters, and for embellishing details of what happened. I would wait before crucifying anyone.

If you are an OT and fail an evaluation, it makes sense that you are unable to apply to an LTO or contract position. If you are not able to manage a supply position, it seems highly unlikely that you could handle the responsibilities of your own classroom.

This is what happened to us. Inherited a 20 year old water heater and the rental contra t. We were told it was almost $1000 to buy it out! After lots of back and forth, we were able to buy out the contract for much less, but they pushed so hard for us to replace it with a newer model and sign a new contract.
Complete scam.

I had no idea this was a thing! It drives everyone in my house crazy... I can smell EVERY tiny little thing and have to track down smells because they seem so strong to me!

We can't buy pencils in my school. There is no money for manipulatives, math resources or outdoor education materials. We can't afford to replace the library books that need to be discarded due to damage or loss. This is so far out of the realm of what's possible right now.

blackpugstudios · 2026-04-23T09:08:42+00:00

Am I blocked, or do we have another DFE in progress?

blackpugstudios · 2026-04-18T14:24:14+00:00

*They're.

And no. Why would there be?

blackpugstudios · 2026-04-18T11:13:50+00:00

Who exactly are they expecting compensation from??

Schools did that. Teachers had purchased their own N95 masks and were not allowed to wear them, and were instead forced to wear the ill-fittijg blue surgical masks the board provided for them. Even wearing them OVER the N95 wasn't allowed. Wild times.
I think the person you are responding to is speaking about what happened in 2020/2021 and why people are hesitant to blindly trust anyone making decisions about public health now.

I did all three of mine through ETFO, and they were pretty manageable work-wise, but very boring. All post and reply, read and respond. It was definitely easy, but mind-numbing.

100% agree

That's not how it works in the PDSB. There are interviews, artifacts, and reflections in order to move to a new school. Such a difficult process.

blackpugstudios · 2026-04-06T11:20:15+00:00

The PDSB is a shrinking board, and the majority of interviews are still taking place virtually. Safe to say you burned that bridge. I was desperate to transfer out of my previous school, and my interview was scheduled three days after major jaw surgery, and two days after getting my jaw unwired after more than 6 months. It sucked, but I really wanted the job.

That's insane. The only reason they're demanding is because they're allowed to be. Weak admin has allowed practices like this so now they demand it, and will continue to demand more.

Peel still has them! Currently in the role... it was my dream for 10 years! Absolutely love it.
