I really don't need another thing to do but I think I might run for a school board position or at the very least start lobbying for a complete restructuring and reimagination of the education system. It is OBVIOUS that the system doesn't work because the past 50 years of my adult like I have heard nothing but issues that no amount of money could ever fix. I propose a 12 month school year for teachers working 8 hours a day with 5 of those hours in instruction/student time and the other 3 hours for prep time EVERY DAY, that should solve the issue with not enough time for prep and marking tests. Of course they would get holidays just like the rest of the working population according to the labor standards guidelines. Change the curriculum so elementary is only getting the basics of reading, writing, arithmetic and some sciences as well as skill labs, I am going to go through the curriculum and see what can be optimized and changed. NO homework for elementary kids and ONLY homework a parent can assist with. For Jr and Senior high which would be practice of the concepts learned that day with a key for parents to check the work and not more than 30 minutes per day. As far as the special needs kids in mainstream classrooms I will have to think about that a little more because it serves no one to have them in the classroom screaming and having tantrums, interrupting education.
I am PRETTY fecking sick of all the public purse employees demands on MY tax dollars and it's about time they worked for the salary and benefits they get currently, if they want more they have to do more.
I am dead serious and it's going to be my winter project, I spent 25 years in education and I KNOW it can be done, just ask home school parents how long it actually takes in a day to educate the kids.

I’m going to start using ECBC. Soooo appropriate.
Copied ⬇️
CBC is ringing the alarm bell that Ottawa needs to consider the possibility of a Quebec Referendum. CBC reported that the PQ has a 20-point lead in the polls and how the Prime Minister urgently must start listening to Quebec and helping Quebec much more than in the past. Albertans are watching this gushing “concern” from CBC and shake their heads at the hypocrisy of the CBC!!!
Right now, Alberta by all measures is much further down the road to Independence and has received zero concern from the CBC. As a matter of fact, the CBC seems as recently as this week, to be leading the attacks on Alberta, by attacking our proposed pipeline, attacking the Party the majority of Albertans elected as the Government, and attacking our Premier. No concern at CBC that Canada is not listening to Alberta! CBC should change their name to ECBC (Eastern Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) because as far as the ECBC is concerned, the West can ...
