I was glad to listen to the member opposite talk about Working for Workers. Toward the end of his remarks, he was painting a picture of what it is like for workers to want to come home at the end of the day and get to where they want to go and spend time with their families. I’m glad that the government is thinking about what life is really like for workers, because one of the things that is happening is—albeit it’s a flawed program—the COVID-19 Worker Income Protection Benefit, only three days. We’ve got concerns with it in the first place, but it ends on the 31st, and then there’s going to be nothing. Right now, we’re hearing from workers that they want to be able to take time to get well, that they don’t want to go to work sick. There’s nothing in this bill.

Why won’t this government support 10 paid sick days, any paid sick days? Why won’t they support workers as they do their best to stay healthy and well with their families?

My question is to the Premier. April 1 is fast approaching, and parents of children with autism are worried. After meeting with local trustees in Oshawa, it is clear that parents of children with autism who will be transitioning from the ending legacy autism program and into schools don’t have answers about what will happen after April 1, once that legacy program is over.

Parents who are going in to register their children for school are met with surprised principals and no plans for support. At a time when special education needs are already terribly underfunded, my question is: What is this government doing to support students with autism to ensure a successful, smooth and supported transition from the legacy program into the classroom?
