What are some other ways that people can think of to get parents to motivate their kids to get them active? Should the provincial government use advertising in order to get the message out, something similar to Barb Tarbox? I do think that a foods class should be manditory in Junior High, teach kids how to cook and what healthy food is.
Also, a tax credit aimed at a broad spectrum of Alberta's population, with health benefits attached, is a far sight better than a tax credit aimed at the people who supported Allison Redford's leadership bid.
