The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts. -Bertrand Russell

What type of leader criticizes teachers over the Thanksgiving weekend after an exhausting month that teachers have been absolute warriors for kids? #abed #ableg

A reminder that the current Alberta Eduction minister fully funded students in Red Deer Catholic Schools to attend anti abortion rallies when she was their school board chair. #abed #ableg # #rdcsd

I think Jason Kenney and @AdrianaLaGrange forget that most Albertans have teachers and nurses in their families. Family bonds run deep. They will remember the disrespect on Election Day. #abed #ableg

The fact that a child in Alberta has to wait months to see a psychiatrist when they are in distress, should not be a thing in a province that touts it’s world class healthcare.

It looks like a full out assault on public education by Jason Kenney. Who, besides the teachers (who are totally spent after two years with ZERO support from this government), will take up the cause? #abed #ableg

Alberta teachers: Prepare for the fight of your lives. Danielle Smith aims to turn Alberta education into a mirror image of the USA. - More privatization for the wealthy and ultra religious - curriculum that does not allow for critical thinking - poor wages #abed #ableg

Public school divisions should not be in the business of creating boutique schools to compete with private schools. Segregating kids along religious, sports, or other areas, weakens communities. #abed #ableg

A robust curriculum REDUCES outcomes and leaves ample room for both teachers, students, and the community to construct meaningful learning. It also is free and clear of standardized testing which sabotages those things. #abed #ableg

If @AdrianaLaGrange and the UCP REALLY cared about public education they would: 1. Stop funding private ed 2.have HEPA filters in every class 3. Fund class sizes for a max 25 or less 4. Encourage curriculum that promotes debate in classes #abed #AbLeg

When Kenney refers to teachers as a “special interest group “, it is not accidental. He is clearly trying to divide us from his base.
