Bonjour/hello,
Ce fut un bon jour, avec des médias comme TVA, Radio Canada, FM 98,5 et d'autres couvrant la problème.
Nous avons maintenant 15 000 signatures! And it keeps going up.
The pubic is hearing the stories of families and teachers who cannot work with or accept the school plan as it stands. And because these stories are personal and relatable, and because what we’re asking for is reasonable, we’re seeing a major swell of support.
Big high-five to all who have signed and shared the petition, talked about the issue with friends, or come forward to tell their story more publicly. It hasn’t been easy - some people attack, joke, or belittle. Ignore them. Reasonable people are naturally onside. It’s a pandemic: we have to look out for ourselves and each other, especially when the government is failing.
Nous devons continuer à faire du bruit. (But also, profiter du week-end!!)
