          ORDERS OF THE DAY                                                       ORDRE DU JOUR
Opposition Day                                                 Jour de l’opposition
Ms. Horwath moved,                                             Mme Horwath propose,
Whereas the Government has announced changes to education funding that will reduce teacher-to-
student ratios and make online learning mandatory resulting in larger class sizes and lost jobs for
education workers; and
Whereas larger class sizes will result in less individual attention for students and ultimately reduce course
options for students particularly in applied learning and the arts; and
Whereas online learning is not appropriate for most students and research shows that it mostly hurts
students who are already struggling; and
Whereas rural school boards have expressed concerns that these changes will negatively impact students
who live in areas with smaller populations and have limited access to broadband services; and
Whereas school boards have indicated that these changes will disproportionately affect programs and
supports for Black, Indigenous and other racialized youth; and
Whereas the Government’s changes will result in fewer adults supporting and educating students in our
schools, be they teachers, social workers, guidance counsellors, educational assistants;
Therefore the Legislative Assembly calls on the Government to reverse their planned changes to
education funding, student-teacher ratios and mandatory e-learning and instead work with parents,
education experts, educators and school boards to devise education policies that work for students.
Debate arose and after some time,                              Il s’élève un débat et après quelque temps,
The question was then put.                                     La question a ensuite été mise aux voix.
