Government's story: We have the highest per capita education spending in Canada
Reality: This is misleading—not everyone in Sk is a student! In per-student funding, we're second-last (and soon-to-be last).
If @jeremycockrill is going to use numbers, he should use them correctly
Government's story: Class size/complexity is a local issue, as per @SaskSchoolBoard
Reality: This government stripped SSBA of its power and autonomy. They have no choice but to comply with what government dictates.

@PremierScottMoe I was at the table. STF was there, Scott. We cleared two full days to negotiate in good faith. Your team didn’t even enter the building today. Yesterday they wouldn’t start until 1pm, and then had no ability to negotiate. Stop with the lies, as premier you need to do better.
22,000+ emails in January (if this government is confused… this IS actually tens of thousands)
Enough is enough!
It’s time for @SaskParty to stop playing politics and give the GTBC a new mandate so they have the authority to start negotiating. https://t.co/B1UKTeOSTV
In case you missed it: Teachers are being asked to do more with less, while divisions are stretched thin.
"We know it’s not sustainable to keep going with what we currently have, and we know that has to change."
By now, you've seen the government's latest attempt to spin their harmful education cuts — billboards plastered around the province with misleading messages about investment in schools.
Let's cut through the spin and correct the record.

Time's up. 🕛
Sask. teachers are bracing the frigid cold in a one-day provincewide strike. They do not want to be doing this—they want to be in the classroom with students, doing their job. But government has given us no other choice. #ISupportSTF
If the provincial government doesn't step up then tomorrow, Saskatchewan teachers will have no other options but to go on strike for one day. Today is Moe Monday and the last chance to stop the clock. https://t.co/FWf8o4P6FK
The provincial government has refused to address the most urgent challenges in Saskatchewan classrooms, such as class size, complexity and violence. They have left us with no other option. The clock is ticking. 🕔
This might be one of the strongest comments to ever come out of an NCTE Position Statement: “The time has come to decenter book reading and essay writing as the pinnacles of English language arts education.” Now go discuss this in your departments! https://t.co/V3BMkWYrX3 @ncte
#NCTE21#NCTE2021 You delivered above and beyond my expectations! I am in awe of the wealth of knowledge and experience I was able to be immersed in over the last few days. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
