Flight from YQR to PVR was delayed and then cancelled on March 27. Forced to drive to YXE and have to stay overnight, pay a week of parking, applied for reimbursement & @WestJet REFUSES due to ‘unforeseen maintenance.’ So much for air passenger rights. Do better!!!

If you’re upset because you paid a lunch room fee, be angrier that your public money is needed to supplement the supervision budget being cut (literally) in half this year. Ask your kids to tell you what their lunchroom supervision is like. – at Regina, Saskatchewan

10 yrs of funding increases below the rate of inflation and enrolment growth results in cuts to supports.
Kids today aren’t getting the quality of education that their parents had when they were in school. An entire generation of kids have been impacted. Our kids deserve better.
Government can solve the problems that students and teachers are facing in schools today, but why are they choosing not to?
It’s time to make kids a priority. 🕒

A growing number of students need intensive supports in school. Due to education cuts, however, there are fewer professional roles, such as psychologists and EAL teachers. Our kids deserve better.

There are more students with profound needs.
Students needing intensive supports was up 38% between 2007-08 and 2018-19. ⬆️

Two weeks in and @PremierScottMoe's government has:
Invited a convicted wife-killer for tea and cookies at the Legislature.
Refused to stop funding schools that use a textbook saying the Loch Ness monster is scientific proof of human and dino coexistence.
