À propos de ce contenu audio

What happens when elected school trustees lose their power, and what does that mean for democracy in Ontario?

In this episode of Echo Essentials, Jay Aspin and Bill Steer join the podcast to talk about the petition to keep trustees in Ontario's public school system. Both men bring deep experience in public life and education governance, and they speak candidly about what has unfolded and why it matters.

The conversation explores the role of elected trustees, the difference between governance and operations, and the concern that long standing democratic structures are being weakened.
