Alberta does not have a funding problem, we have a waste (and possibly corruption problem) with AB Education. Taxpayers are paying for ALL of the things you see on these expense reports. Superintendents of school divisions globe-trotting in which they're trying to attract International students while also saying we have too many students per classroom (high performing international students increase the aggreget outcomes and grades in AB ed). Expensing hundreds of thousands of dollars per year on their professional expenses including union dues which are then used to run campaigns parallel to specific political parties to amplify their messages.
It the execs buy a latte, YOU pay for it.
The Alberta Teachers Association carved out 12,000,000 of membership money to form the Defense and Advocacy Fund which runs campaigns parallel to political parties to support their messaging. This is YOUR money being used in a perpetual back-scratching loop, NOT to further your childrens education.
Even worse, (as Berta Proud Dad pointed out this morning,) they are fighting AGAINST your rights -ATA 2025 resolution outcomes motion 2-39-25 Westwind local - "The parent child relationship is paramount and should be respected" -DEFEATED) We, the parents will NOT be defeated!
MORE TO COME!
PS- The Superintendent of the Battle river School division took a trip to Germany WEEKS BEFORE the strike over class sizes. You paid for it. They say you don't give them enough money.
I sat on this for almost a month & I decided I would never make this video. Until Mark Carney forced my hand yesterday. It is now a matter of public policy & every Canadian needs to know this. I’m going to get a lot of hate over this but we need to have a respectful discussion

Justin Trudeau send to Danielle Smith warning about Alberta leaving the CPP for the Alberta Pension Plan and will do "everything possible" to ensure CPP stays intact.
Looks like they might do a media campaign to combat it as well.

“Woke is Marxism reimagined to decimate the West”
If you have any interest in politics and culture in this postmodern era, you need to watch this excellent speech by @ConceptualJames
Here’s how I handle explaining sexuality and LGBTQIA2+&$ issues to my 3 & 5 year old sons:
First, I take them outside to play and then I do this amazing thing:
I LET THEM FUCKING PLAY AND BE INNOCENT BECAUSE THEY ARE CHILDREN & DONT HAVE THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND THESE CONCEPTS
The Target, Miller Lite and Bud Light boycotts are only the beginning
For those that prefer to avoid the culture war I thought I would explain why I support these protests...
I don't much care if a company wants to insult their customers, a private business has every right to market their product in new and creative ways, and sometimes it will backfire. That's business.
If Target really has so many transitioning toddler customers that they can profit off of clothing options for this micro-niche market. OK
But in reality, they don't
The truth is that there is no profit to be found in appealing to less than 1% of America while alienating 50% of their loyal customer base. The underlying financial incentive is not about you, the customer, at all. It is about the financial titans like BlackRock, whom will only acquire shares of your stock if the company's ESG score is raised.
Virtue signaling marketing campaigns are an easy way to raise your ESG score
THIS is what I oppose
I love capitalism
We need to get back to capitalism
This is not capitalism
It is more aptly described as fascism
The push for DEI and ESG is derived from the UN. The UN has rebranded and relaunched ESG under SDG or Sustainable Development Goals. The people who concocted these plans despise capitalism. They fancy themselves our benevolent overlords while viewing us as a plague upon the earth. They realized about 20 years ago that we would never accept a poorer lifestyle voluntarily, so they began propagandizing our children into a cult-like belief that carbon emissions, literally the building blocks of life, would mean our collective death
Since we would never vote to accept worldwide austerity and poverty the only way they could modify our behavior was to infiltrate the capitalist model with Marxist ideals. Old Marxism divided society into class struggle. New Marxism divides society into identitarian struggle. Same general game plan. Same general outcomes.
Cultural discord
Increased state power
Eventual starvation and war
To build anew they must first destroy
There is no limit to the collateral damage that they are willing to unleash
That is where the kids come in
That is, in part, why the younger generation has skyrocketing gender dysphoria issues. Anxiety, depression, suicide, drug addiction. There is no price too steep when your overlords are convinced that what exists is evil and must be destroyed
Unfortunately WE are what they wish to destroy
The relationship between big business and big government has been on full display as of late. The Twitter leaks gave us a small window into the unholy alliance between them. Due to our constitutional protections the governments of the world have begun using their regulatory and central banking framework to force "private businesses" into violating our rights. It is coercive, it is likely illegal, but the lunatics are running the asylum and I don't think they'll investigate and prosecute themselves.
In other words, our collective financial capacity to break this unholy alliance may be our last peaceful line of defense
It is imperative that we bring these corporation to heel and realign them with their customer base as opposed to the crony capitalists. It will not be easy but it is not impossible. Break them.
For the sake of your children
Break them
Only when they apologize and stop with this insanity should you relent
This is not merely a culture war. It is economic warfare on a global scale and it will ultimately dictate our future:
Marxist-fascist technocratic globalist domination or a future based in peace, prosperity and a re-embrace of human liberty?
You have my answer
