NDP opposes cut to education infrastructure fund

NDP Education critic Marit Stiles released the following statement:

 

“With Doug Ford’s budget, the cuts just keep coming. Too many schools in Ontario have lead in the children’s drinking fountains, leaky roofs, and 40-degree classrooms on hot days. Kathleen Wynne let us down by ignoring the repairs that students, teachers and education workers desperately needed. But Doug Ford’s plan — touted by Education Minister Stephen Lecce today — is a $3 billion cut to the school building and repair fund over the next 10 years. Doug Ford is taking even more away from Ontario’s students.”
