The Liberal government continues to deny children with autism vital therapy while also cutting front line education workers who help children succeed, said NDP MPP for Oshawa, Jennifer French, today in the legislature.
“Ontario families know that when $8 million is cut from special education funding across 25 school boards, and $1 billion in dedicated education funding goes unused over the past three years, their children are not a priority,” said French.
French cite several examples of the impacts of Liberal cuts across the province:
