Ok, so they aren’t listening to voters, AT ALL? Because the polls all say that the VAST majority of the population thinks there should be NO public money for private schools.

Ahhh, that was a fascinating ranbit hole to peek into. Sadly, it never occured to me that the modern Jehovah's Witnessed were a splintrr offshoot from a prior group with competing factions. Fascinating!

I do recall seeing some old articles about JW parents being in serious trouble during the war yesrs as their children would refrain from various expected, school-sanctioned activities related to promoting nationalism and patriotism.

Very sad to see no attempt was made to accommodate dissenters within public education.

With the addition of two new high schools in the next couple of years, some Calgary Catholic school students may not be going to the high school they expected, but it could be closer to home. #yyc #calgary #abed

The future of #alberta in 5 years … mostly private healthcare and education. All unions and rights meaningless. If you’re not employed near the top of the dying oil and gas industry… you and your family, and your parents, are fucked. #ableg #abpoli #abed #abhealth #NotwithstandingClause

This scary precedent could soon affect workers of any industry, anywhere in Canada.

We're calling on all unions and workers to support The Alberta Teachers' Association and demand irrevocable protections for workers right to strike!

Shame on Danielle Smith and the Alberta UCP!
