Canada

Just wanted to throw out there that class size and complexity matters a lot.

I taught in an Alberta public high school. I had a class of 47 students. And this was a split Math 20-3/20-4 class. Over ⅓ of the class had IEPs, and another ⅓ (at least) should have had IEPs, but they'd fallen through the cracks of the system and didn't have paperwork on file to support a designation.

20-3 and 20-4 have virtually 0 curricular overlap, btw. I feel badly for the -4 kiddos in that class—they got almost no attention from me. It just wasn't possible. The one EA in the class did what she could to help them, thankfully.

I got reprimanded by my admin for that class, too, since a lowkey fight broke out (nobody was hurt) in that class and I didn't notice for about half a minute.

I left the province and haven't regretted it for a second.

She tries to frame the classroom size issue as a teacher safety issue. It's not. It's a quality of learning issue, which is not in the conservative vocabulary.

Narrator: those issues weren't ultimately addressed.

Counterpoint: Fuck off, Danielle Smith.

The Calgary Herald is American owned media pretending to be Canadian, infiltrating Canadian culture and politics.

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

What an untrustworthy weasel.

I hope this goes to court. The UCP needs to be taught a lesson.

You know what? We're gonna strike even harder.

The only thing that comes out of her mouth is shit. And the only thing she wants to go in her mouth is trumps cumshot.

Address the issues first!

Her name is Marlaina Smith. She wants people to use the names they were born with.
