It is as if she needs a teacher to teacher her how expenses work. Buildings, utilities, insurance, teachers, support staff, class room materials, maintenance, etc.

There are any number of things she could have said in response to the question but she had to go with the path of suggesting something untoward is happening with the money and that common sense napkin math proves her point.

It is almost as if every accusation out of her mouth is a confession.
So what is it Smith? $12k or $14k per student? Quite a convenient range of funding when there isn't a range on this figure at all. Last data I have seen has AB is sitting well below that at $11,400k.

In what world is it ok for the third richest province in the Country by GDP to have the lowest per student funding in any way shape or form? Alberta sitting at $2K below the national average is disgusting. Complexities up, class sizes exploding at the seams (you'd never know since you can't report that data anymore in this province), but lets roll with the lowest funding in the country and get more efficient lol!

Shameful when we are hearing about $8B dollar surpluses in the budget and we can't increase per student education funding to be competitive with QC, ON, and pay teachers more when they haven't had a true pay increase in over a decade.
