Alberta’s teachers have given everything to their students, schools, and communities. But their pay has fallen behind, workloads have soared, and classrooms are bursting without the resources they need. Public education is in crisis.

[Jason Gregor @JasonGregor]

FYI... Alberta teacher's were offered 12% over four years, which is 3% each year, not 12% in one year.

For some background... teacher's have had a 0% increase in NINE of the past 12 years. And the few years they got a raise it was 1.8% and 2%.

But their main concern isn't money. It is class size, funding for curriculum, special needs and more.

Families should be aware how much lower our education bar is in Alberta now compared to the past, due to cuts in funding and grossly oversized classrooms. This makes learning more challenging for your children or grandchildren.

Education should be one of our top priorities.

Our government is committed to doing just that. We’ll continue to take concrete action, advance meaningful reconciliation, and make real progress in partnership with Indigenous Peoples. Please read my full statement: https://t.co/zKDWKbMjck

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

No one must ever forget about what happened at residential schools across the country, and we must all work to make sure it never happens again. Together, in the spirit of reconciliation and healing, we’ll keep building a better future – for Indigenous Peoples and all Canadians.

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

This historic moment would not have been possible without the advocacy and perseverance of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Survivors. Today is about you, and about all of the children who were taken from their families and robbed of their childhoods.

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

Today in Maskwacîs, Pope Francis recognized the abuses suffered in church-operated residential schools – where more than 150,000 Indigenous children were forced to assimilate and lose their languages, cultures, spiritualities, traditions, and identities.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Dear brothers and sisters of #Canada, I come among you to meet the indigenous peoples. I hope, with God's grace, that my penitential pilgrimage might contribute to the journey of reconciliation already undertaken. Please accompany me with #prayer.

During his inaugural address in 2019, Zelensky told lawmakers: “I do not want my picture in your offices: the President is not an icon, an idol or a portrait. Hang your kids' photos instead, and look at them each time you are making a decision.”

Somebody hasn’t figured out that if you weren’t elected , you don’t get to sit at the table of gov’t. Somebody hasn’t figured out that the legitimacy of a gov’t is derived from the will of the voters- not your feelings. Cdn democracy may annoy you. But it protects us from you.
