That was an excellent interview. Good on her.

Demetrios was clearly pandering to his base, two things I want to clear up here:
- the unprecedented population growth is due to UCP’s “Alberta is calling” campaign. He clearly tried to deflect their incompetence at anticipating population growth by blaming the feds as usual.
- we rejected enhanced mediation because they literally barred the mediator from discussing classroom size and complexity. Of course he wouldn’t mention that part.

I’m glad she didn’t take the bait to debating these with limited time, and moved on to tougher questions. Teacher retention will be a major problem. As already heard from some teachers here, lots of teachers considering early retirement. A buddy of mine who teaches internationally wanted to move back next year, but said he now won’t if Danielle remains as premier.

Eventually a couple of expansion teams will be added which will nestle the Oilers into 16th.
