The UCP education policies and cuts serve both purposes. It’s a multipurpose policy.

It kneecaps educator’s unions & collective power,

And it rewards Dominionist Christian schools and private elite schools.
The policy expands funding for Christian options: Christian schools and homeschooling. It also ensures wealthy elites receive assistance with cost of tuition. Not every parent can afford $20,000 in fees per student. Charter schools will be covered.
But it is an attack on intellectualism.

If you research the Dominionist Christian ideology, it is firmly entrenched in providing anti-intellectual education. Just the basics.

Part of the ideology behind Dominionism is preference for faith over science.
Belief that the earth is only 6500 years old. Creationism.

It’s a complete rejection of the scientific discoveries that have brought medicine, healthcare, education, bio-medical research to the current level of understanding.

Dominionists refer to the bible as inerrant.
Everything you need to know is in the bible. The rest is superfluous and unnecessary. That’s what Dominionists refer to as propaganda and indoctrination.

Climate science is a hoax, illness is mind over matter, education is unnecessary except to read the bible.
History is biblical. All other history is irrelevant. Abraham, Isaac, Moses, David, Solomon and Jesus. That’s it. You don’t need any more history.

It completely removes the need to study world wars, genocide, human rights, climate change, etc. That is indoctrination.
So the policy to cut some funding from some but not all post secondary universities and to remove funding and administrative control from public K-12 schools while increasing Christian and Private options serves many functions. Not just one or two.
*Advances Dominionist Christian indoctrination of children over academic achievement
*Gives parents choice of Christian or academic track, a select few offer both
*Provides affluent parents with assistance for tuition; remember Scheer was also offering $4K tax credit
*Guts public education system, forcing parents to choose other options or petition to limit public schools to children without issues (anti-inclusive)
*Gives parents control over curriculum in public schools, as opposed to educators
*Removes ability of ATA to operate effectively
*Eventually teachers will earn a pittance for wages; already do in private schools
*Emulates US education system of low paid teachers who rely on community donations for supplies to teach children
*Middle income parents expected to supplement public education
*Low income will struggle to produce students with literacy and numeracy skills
*Corporations will be able to offer funding to schools in disadvantaged areas and demand training for cheap labour vs academic achievement
*Large Post secondary schools limited to wealthy elites, domestic and foreign
*Much higher reliance on foreign student increased tuition in post secondary, meaning fewer spaces available for Albertan & Canadian students
*Increased students from affluent nations like China, Middle Eastern FF nations, East, Central & South Asian elites, etc.
*Removal of courses and departments that do not support free market needs
*Corporate sponsorship of post secondary education and control of admissions
There are several more outcomes that this policy will produce.

Kenney is actively redesigning Alberta society.

He’s using Dominionist Christian ideology to shape policy and indoctrinate the Alberta population from Kindergarten on up.
This is how China indoctrinates citizens. From birth the state indoctrinates citizens to support the regime. Everybody is assigned a social class at birth. Unless you show exceptional talent, there is no mobility. The only exception is devotion to advancing the regime’s power.
Dissent is NOT an option. Social classes are assigned roles they are expected to perform. The wealthy have a different set of rules and receive state sponsorship. Funded by the working class.

Only the top of the hierarchy makes rules. Everyone else just obeys.
Dissent means removal from your social and economic class.

Dissent may mean prison, death or re-education. Or banishment from the regime.

China is a totalitarian dictatorship.
Kenney’s policies are reflective, if not aimed at similar outcomes.

Authoritarian rule, removal of dissent, reality is shaped (consider MSM is currently a propaganda tool), economic rewards used to control behaviour, loss of life is immaterial, since people are expendable.
I realize many are in shock and deep denial regarding what is happening in Alberta. The public doesn’t want to acknowledge or see what is happening. It’s too frightening and horrifying.

Alberta better wake up soon. Or we will be living a dystopian nightmare within the next year.
This is what Scheer has planned for the rest of Canada. And since we don’t have a recall mechanism, once CPC is in power, it will be implemented nationally.

Sounds like a conspiracy theory, but I assure you, the conspiracy is very real.
China is implementing this model globally. It’s supposed to be fully operational by 2020. Documented here:


And here:
Hong Kong is fighting for their life right now.

So are a number of other developing nations:
Bolivia, Venezuela, Chile, Columbia, Guatemala, Ecuador, Syria, Yemen, Iran

And developed nations:
US, UK, Canada, Australia, Brazil, Italy, Hungary, Austria, Ukraine
Check it out. They are all Belt and Road Initiative nations currently being targeted for submission. Russia is assisting China, as well as Saudi Arabia and the US.

What three nations have imposed sanctions on Canada to weaken the economy? China, Saudi Arabia and US.
Trouble is, world leaders are fighting back. Trudeau, Macron, Merkel, NATO, IMF, MI6, Five Eyes.

But we are on our own in Alberta. Because we are a province, not a nation unto itself. Yet. Trudeau can’t help Alberta. It would be political suicide.

We need to fight back.
It’s not just education. It’s everything UCP is doing. Rachel Notley is not hyperbolic. Kenney has abandoned democracy and is ruling Alberta like a corrupt dictator.

We need to acknowledge that and form a resistance to make it more difficult for UCP to achieve. NOW
This means all people affected. Not just education, or nurses, or workers. Everybody all at once. We need to unite and support each other and push back on autocracy.

If we don’t, we will be rules with an iron fist of Kenney’s and his UCP minions.
Still think I’m kidding, hyperbolic or wearing tin foil? The bill hasn’t even passed yet, and people are being denied medical treatment.
