I can unequivocally confirm it is absolutely not about “salaries and wanting more” and that it is absolutely about classroom sizes, supports, and overall sustainability of the system.

Asked her just now, in fact.

Again, to be very clear, fair pay is literally the starting point of this discussion. It’s table stakes to even begin negotiating towards a solution.

I don’t understand why we are actively trying to dumb down future generations of Albertans by knee capping the education system in our province. Why do we have any interest in mimicking the US system? It’s objectively worse on all metrics.
