Big omissions in #ableg Fiscal Update: no recognition of our main fiscal challenge (reliance on resource revenues) and no indication of how we'll move forward. As Ron Kneebone 🇨🇦🇺🇦 so wisely put it: we have a substance abuse problem. Step 1 to overcoming it: admit we have a problem.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1989: 61-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 320-1 American capitalism is off the rails.

You gotta check out this video which is a #peptalk for the upcoming school year. #kidsuperintendent knocks it out of the ballpark. ‘Give each other grace not grief’ and ‘You got this’ are my key takeaways. Just when you hear him say RSD think RVS. youtu.be/a71O90UCF1U #RVSed

Just got out of #ableg Public Health Act Committee. Alberta Chief Medical Officer of Health made it really clear that her job is to advise the government in private. Adriana LaGrange and Jason Kenney 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇮🇱 make decisions about schools being safe or not. They blame the Dr. but the buck stops with them. #abed

Just you. I know teachers WANT to be back in the classroom with their students and are simply asking for our govt to show leadership and provide the safest school re-entry possible. In the midst of it all, teachers are preparing like any other year, to welcome students back.

The faces behind the parent emails that went home today are still at work tonight. When it’s not perfect next week, or as smooth as it normally is, be kind and remember the people behind the work to get the doors open. #SafeSeptemberAB #abed #abpoli #ableg

Yep and given this fact, I’m not sure why they are so heavily subsidized by the public purse especially O&G. They aren’t the major contributors to provincial revenue. Our money should be spent to make a better society.

Great to have nearly 50 people join in on the #RVSed Board of Trustees’ School Council orientation. The Board very much appreciates all of the efforts of every school council and enjoyed the opportunity to share information to support the councils.

Where are all my sweet educators at? How are your hearts? Right here, right now, our focus needs to be less on the kids, and more on you. Your mental health and wellbeing should be our priority, because if you’re not ok, our babies don’t stand a chance.

Hey, you amazing educators. How are your hearts? If you’re crushing it, carry on. If you feel like you’re a ship lost at sea, give yourself some grace. In both cases, know this: I am proud of you, and so appreciative of the holy work that you do.

ASCA is hearing, loud and clear, from #SchoolCouncil parents about the draft k-6 curriculum. We are listening. The ASCA board is working to create a forum for discussion on this topic during the conference/AGM weekend April 23-25. #ASCAConf21 #ParentVoice

I signed this open letter to the Premier & Education Minister because I stand with parents teachers and our whole school community. I believe in a well funded and strong public education system. #StandForEducation #ableg #abed StandForEducation.ca

RVS grows by ~1000 students annually. In our meeting with the Minister, the Board reiterated its frustration in not having received construction funding for our much-needed capital priorities. We anxiously await news about our request for 32 modular units. #rvstrustees #rvsed
