One-day Ontario teacher strike leaves families to rely on each other
As he watches his daughter Sarah help give figure skating lessons to younger kids taking their first tentative strides, Tim MacFarlane smiles. Not everyone is as lucky as they are — some will need a helping hand.

When public elementary schools close across much of the GTA in what is being called “Super Tuesday,” Sarah has a grandmother at home to take care of her. But MacFarlane knows this isn’t the case for each of the hundreds of thousands of families who will be scrambling to find accommodation for their kids.
