Professionalism, Leadership, and Neglect

Today marks the first day of job action as teachers across the province raise serious concerns about classroom conditions and the lack of supports for students. I stand in support of educators and families, and hope for a timely, fair resolution to this difficult situation.

Unfortunately, this is more than a labour dispute, it reflects a profound failure of leadership by the United Conservative Party. From the outset, the UCP treated negotiations as a political battle rather than a good-faith process. Standard practice is to maintain confidentiality in order to preserve trust and foster compromise. Instead, the UCP broke that trust, rushing to the media with a distorted version of events designed to sway public opinion.

At the same time, they launched a coordinated advertising campaign vilifying teachers. The timing and messaging make clear this was a pre-planned strategy, not an honest effort to find solutions. After provoking educators, the government tabled an offer they knew would be rejected—then used that rejection to justify further attacks. Meanwhile, they unveiled a cabinet-approved childcare subsidy plan costing an estimated $200 million per month, clearly timed to coincide with the strike and shift the narrative.

Let’s be clear: it is the UCP, not teachers, using children as political pawns. Instead of investing in classrooms and improving outcomes, they spend public dollars on division and distraction. Their goal to “break the teachers” is about control, not resolution.

That money could have been better spent where it matters most: reducing class sizes, hiring more educational assistants, and providing targeted student support.

At its core, this isn’t about fixing education—it’s about waging war on Alberta’s teachers, students, and public education system, just as they’ve already done in healthcare.

Albertans deserve leadership that prioritizes students over politics, and solutions over spin. The time to restore trust, professionalism, and real leadership is now.

@ABDanielleSmith 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽 fucking everything up

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

Parents aren’t blaming teachers; they’re blaming Danielle Smith.

They’re right to do so: Alberta is the richest province in Canada, yet we spend the least per student.

That’s not an accident. That’s a choice.
Let's stand with teachers and stand up for public education.

Hockey games would be way less painful if they didn’t stop the music when the puck drops.

Things that go hand in hand: conspiracy theory believers and lack of education.
