We are at the point where Danielle Smith would rather violate charter rights and create a constitutional crisis…

Instead of paying teachers fairly and giving kids the classrooms they need.

Read that again.

Because this is where we are.

This is a must-read.

We don’t ask other professions to do this nonsense. Why just teachers?

@cspotweet Says the woman who wanted to redraw the AB and BC borders to have some coastal access. BC was a province in 1871 and AB in 1905. Too bad.

Sharing this from Facebook. TV news just keeps saying that teachers rejected 12% over years and 3000 new teachers without digging into that at ALL, and of course the usual suspects are out spewing misinformation. Facts matter.

@Altamoms @ABDanielleSmith He was asking about education funding…that’s off topic? The right to speak is a Charter right; questioning the government is something people are free to do.

@McAllisterBruce Sorry isn’t enough. Advocating for Corporal punishment is not acceptable; it’s abusive.

Evan, the high schooler shut down by Bruce McAllister (*and advised should have been turned over his parents' knees) took to Reddit. High schoolers get it.
Adults need to stand up, too
#ResignBruceMcAllister & apologize.

@MsLutzmann @McAllisterBruce And the government says teachers are the problem! They’re despicable #FireTheUCP

I cannot anymore. I cannot. This government truly is appalling.

From book bans to attacking transgendered children, bike lanes and the vulnerable on AISH. It’s all a circus designed to distract you from the billions this government is draining from social services. Nail them on corruptcare.

Dear teacher chums, may your first day back be ok enough for you not to need a lie down in a dark room when you get home.
May the tea, coffee and snacks be plentiful, and the provided lunch be palatable.
May you sleep soundly tonight.
