The joy of learning and the joy of play is the same today as it ever was, even if our schools change over time. The same can be said for accountability. The digital age has changed how we talk to each other, but accountability is still needed. We need accountability in our institutions, in our schools and our communities and in our personal lives. The TDSB and TCDSB in Toronto have been suspended by the Ministry of Education and a supervisor has been given control of each respective Board. 
Matias De Dovitiis, a Toronto District School Board trustee who has previously run for the NDP, said it was hypocritical of Calandra to publish trustee expenses and not make his own available to scrutiny.
“I would like us to move on, but for the sake of transparency, it would be great (if he released his expenses),” he said.
“If he wants to set a moral standard, that’s amazing. But all of our expenses have to be publicly shared on our websites. If anyone ever wanted to look at my expenses, they could. They should be able to do the same for the minister.”
