Welcome back to Trillium Talk, your must-see briefing from Village Media’s team of journalists at the Ontario Legislature.
Every Sunday, Scott Sexsmith sits down with one of our staffers at The Trillium to talk about the week that was at Queen's Park — and the week ahead.
On the show today is deputy editor Sneh Duggal, who breaks down some concerning numbers about school board budgets in Ontario. More than four out of 10 boards — 43 per cent — are projecting a deficit this year, for a total of $200-million in red ink.
Sticking with classrooms, Duggal also talks about why the NDP and education unions are renewing calls for more government action to address violence in schools.
