Perhaps you should keep more of an open mind on things that you criticize for your own personal gain and try to see how they can actually provide a net benefit to help address other problems you have issues with. Just a thought.
Wasn’t trying to criticize, just posted my pondering that maybe the school model hasn’t changed as much as society has. I didn’t like unions for me, I do see the value of them in certain scenarios. I didn’t find them beneficial for my personal motivation to be a better employee.

Interesting comment about percentage of unionized employees vs single income households. Will dig into that a bit.

I should have also said that I came from a household of two teachers, one was packaged out due to age in the 90’s to make way for the next generation and the other is still very much employed on the public funded Alberta virtual school side.
