Alberta's government is providing school authorities with additional funding to support higher salaries for teachers, address enrolment growth, and support francophone education. Additionally, up to 1,600 more teachers and support staff will be hired in the new school year. #AbEd

@AdrianaLaGrange Nice PR Adriana. You have taken money held in reserve by fiscally responsibly boards away from them and redistributed that money. At the same time, you pretend that your party has infused new money into education. You’ve “Robbed Peter to pay Peter.”
@AdrianaLaGrange So you’re putting back the money that you cut just before COVID hit. A bit of a shell game there eh?
@AdrianaLaGrange Higher salaries for teachers?! You cut my health account so I barely broke even! 😡
@AdrianaLaGrange This doesn’t come close to repairing the damage Ur office has done. Stop with the bait and switch
@AdrianaLaGrange Are you providing funding to ensure that all students will have their learning needs met, or just enough to maintain the status quo with rising costs? Anyone on the front lines can tell you that our kids need more from you. Teachers are giving all they can.
@AdrianaLaGrange Not additional funding when it comes from reserves.
@AdrianaLaGrange You didn’t mention anything about school maintenance for air ventilation upgrades, masking, provisions for immune compromised children, or working with health authorities on vaccination programs. The safety of our children should be of paramount importance.
