There are many sports that are private (soccer, baseball, hockey, basketball) that are in non school clubs. Plus this only impacts junior high and high school. What extra curricular clubs are there really in elementary which accounts for 1/2 of the grades. I don't see elementary teachers impacted by this.
Very myopic post.

There is a staggering amount of work that teacher's are not contractually obligated to do that goes into the day-to-day reality of making school function for kids.

We keep making this about teachers, and only teachers. It is far beyond that.

It is about the education quality of the next generation of Albertans. It is about creating the system that will ensure that generation becomes a high functioning and contributing part of our society, leading to increased prosperity for the province.

The bare minimum funding approach for the public system being taken by the government is unacceptable.

The fact they have used the notwithstanding clause to achieve this clearly ideological goal is abhorrent.

I will be actively using my influence and network across the city to ensure this does not go unanswered.
