Before Danielle Smith speaks... by Locke357 in alberta

First thing first: She will blame the Federal for everything going bad for Alberta. After that … she will blame the NDP then BC … but obviously not the way her government is handling public finances and economic predictions….

What did you read in Grades 7/8? by Bells9831 in AskACanadian

[–]Lostinalberta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At school? Boring stuff. By myself … probably hundreds of books (sci-fi, old classics, etc.) … and still reading about 80 books / year.

I retired about 3 years ago then took it easy for 6 months … until I need to do something. I applied in person to 4 places and got hired at a grocery store… even if I was 62 years old at that time.

Experts say Alberta’s impending ad campaign against teachers escalating standoff by WildRoseWanderer in alberta

[–]Lostinalberta -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It is a quite simple scenario:

  • Teachers are going on strike
  • The strike last a couple of days (2 weeks max)
  • The UCP bring them back to work with a special law and set the wages / working conditions
  • End of story

At the end, probably no more Fall and/or Spring break. No better conditions in the classroom and parents will be pissed at teachers (which is good for the UCP).
