The Ontario government is investing in a number of advertisements they say will help inform parents and members of the public of the health measures that will be in place as kids return to schools in September.

The advertisements were released just before Ontario Premier Doug Ford was set to make a news conference in Etobicoke alongside Education Minister Stephen Lecce.

“To keep everyone safe, steps are being taken to maintain physical distancing through the use of social groupings, lunch in classrooms and limited interaction among students and staff,” the ad reads. “To learn about other health and safety measures in our schools, please visit Ontario.ca/ReopeningSchools.”

“That’s why the Ontario government asked doctors, health officials, school boards and educators to help build a comprehensive plan to keep our kids safe. Working together, our plan includes physical distancing, putting more nurses in schools, masking, enhanced cleaning and hand sanitization and other measures to ensure the wellbeing of students and school staff.”

“We will continue to inform the public about the health protocols that are in place like the importance of hand hygiene, wearing masks and physical distancing,” Caitlin Clark said.

Howabout a backgrounder on how 'Resource Person' works in On schools? Them nurses wont be stationed at any particular school.

Does the hiring of extra nurses signify their anticipation of a surge in Covid19 infections due to poor (absence of ) planning?

Schools have nurses? Is that new? Or did I go to poor schools? Actually the one school I know had a nurse office (grade school) was literally the one which had the most money in the nicest area lol

Such an irresponsible use of taxpayer money!! fordnation is deaf to the voices of Ontario right now crying out for responsible leadership and a safe return to school.
