This is terrible for rural Alberta and now our schools are scrambling to find fixes, which cost tons of money, for which the UCP aren't offering any. By the way, they cut the distance learning program in 2020, literally in the middle of the pandemic.

I went to a large urban school and I took classes through ADLC that I did not have time in my regular schedule for.
