Has Danielle Smith ever had an original thought or is she just pulling everything she says out of the MAGA playbook?

That's not how strikes work, and it cannot be allowed to become the way the ruling class expects to negotiate.

They simply do not negotiate. They don't know how to.

Let's go with facts: When negotiations started for this contract in 2024, they were offering 8% to teachers and no commitment to more teachers. They moved up to 12% for all teachers and up to 17% for those in divisions with lower grids, plus a commitment to 3000 more teachers. They have also committed to 130 new schools in the province over the next few years which is a 9 billion dollar project. They definitely negotiated.
