Great piece from Mount Royal’s Paul Varella. “Immigrants are not marginal to Alberta’s economy; they represent nearly the entire engine of labour force growth. calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu... #NoToTheNone

Immigrants are not the problem. They are huge contributors to our communities. Vote no to the 9, and stay in Canada. #NoToTheNine

Proud to see the Bishop of my church once again calling out the UCP on their horrible practices.

Some people take the fact that the shooter was trans and generalize it to imply all trans are bad, but I never see that generalization when a suspect is a straight man. We don’t hear being male, and masculinity are bad even tough the vast majority of suspects in these types of incidences are cis men

I feel like my feed has shifted over the last couple of weeks. Less local stuff and more American posts. Maybe it’s because there’s so much crap happening down there these days. Still, it’s too much. I wish there were more Canadians posting news.

I am so glad to see these faith communities speak out against this horrible violation of rights towards the Trans community.

I saw this story in the book of faces. And it really hit home for me. This is not just relevant for education settings, but all workplaces. Leaders need to step up and listen to their employees when they say something’s not right.

Posted by the ATA to the book of faces. This is what Dani and the UCP is rejecting and calling unreasonable and not rooted in reality #abed #abpoli #ableg #Istandwithteachers

Poster titled “What Teachers Proposed to the Government”.

Purpose:
Make classrooms safe, manageable and fair for all students.
Create a province-wide standard for classroom size that accounts for student complexity, not just headcount.
Ensure schools fix problems before Sept 30 when funding locks in

Phased in student - teacher ratio (displayed in a chart)
2025 K-3 26:1 4-6 32:1. 7-9 34:1. 10-12 36:1
2026 K-3 23:1. 4-6 29-1. 7-9 31:1. 10-12. 33:1
2027. K-3 20:1. 4-6 26-1. 7-9 28:1. 10-12. 30:1
2028. K-3 17:1. 4-6 23-1. 7-9 25:1. 10-12. 27:1
Lab and shops capped at 24 students
Only direct instruction teachers counted in the ratio

Weighted complexity formula (display in a chart)
Columns for category, weight and examples
Typical learner - 1.0 - No extra Supports
Mild / Moderate - 1.5 - ELL, mild disabilities, behaviour
Severe needs - 2.0 - severe or complex cases
Gifted - 1.25 - Individualized enrichment
Complex classes get counted as heavier, lowering the allowed headcount.

Annual planning and Check-ins
May 31: Principles project next year’s enrollment and complexity
Sept 1-30: Divisions must verify and adjust counts
After Sept 30: No new funding - but divisions must still fix issues internally

Appeal Path if nothing Changes
1. Teacher to Principal (5 days)
2. Principal to Superintendent (10-5)
3. Division to Tribunal - final, binding ruling with possible funding

Unbelievable. Chills. Tens of thousands of teachers converging downtown just outside where Danielle Smith is addressing an audience. I’ve never seen anything like this. Time to listen up, Premier. Time for a fair deal. We stand with teachers. ❤️✊

This makes me so angry. It’s time for the UCP to be rooted in reality. Support our schools. Support our teachers. Support our kids. Stop giving all our money away to oil and gas and fund public education!

Anyone with kids or grandkids can see what conditions are really like in classrooms. Of course we side with teachers because it’s also siding with our kids. #abed #ableg # abpoli

Employers need to recognize that ignoring the needs of employees costs them good employees, and costs more in the long -run. It doesn’t pay to keep dumping more on people.

It’s 10:30 on a Tuesday, and the teens in my house are all sleeping. They should be in school learning. It’s time Dani to give the teachers a fair deal and get everyone back in the classroom where they belong. #ableg #abed #Isupportteachers

We don’t hear a lot about the elections for school trustees, but it is a really important position for our schools. If you live in ward B (Edmonton) Linda Lindsey is the clear choice. She’s an experienced educator and really cares for kids and their education. lindalindsay.org

Other than to disrespect and stir up rage, what’s the point of this? Maybe they could spend their time bargaining in good faith instead.

With the looming teacher strike, I found this essay from an AB teacher very illuminating. "Over the past eight years, the UCP has never missed an opportunity to antagonize teachers on issues that didn’t need to cost a single penny. " buff.ly/eIU7NQo

My kid tells me teachers at his school were in tears today. He and his gr 12 classmates are devastated for what they will lose in the final year. The teachers don’t want this. The kids don’t want this. The parents don’t want this. #UCP get back to the table and give the teachers a fair deal! #abed

Imagine claiming the Alberta Next Panel is about ensuring respect from Ottawa and ensuring all voices are heard, and then you yell at a young Albertan publicly that he needs to be spanked for asking a fair question and expressing an opinion. Absolute peak hypocrisy.
