The Ontario government has taken control of four school boards, citing financial mismanagement and deficits, but parents and trustees claim the action is a 'sham.'

In Ontario, the government's move to appoint supervisors to four more school boards highlights a bid for greater control over educational governance, beyond merely addressing financial issues.

"The province has appointed supervisors to multiple school boards facing financial challenges. This decision follows investigations revealing deficits and mismanagement that have failed our students and parents."

Ontario Education Minister Paul Calandra warns that without increased federal funding, $10-a-day child-care program fees will rise, impacting parents post-March 2026.
