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.
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.
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.
Climate science is a hoax, illness is mind over matter, education is unnecessary except to read the bible.
It completely removes the need to study world wars, genocide, human rights, climate change, etc. That is indoctrination.
*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
*Gives parents control over curriculum in public schools, as opposed to educators
*Removes ability of ATA to operate effectively
*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
*Corporations will be able to offer funding to schools in disadvantaged areas and demand training for cheap labour vs academic achievement
*Much higher reliance on foreign student increased tuition in post secondary, meaning fewer spaces available for Albertan & Canadian students
*Removal of courses and departments that do not support free market needs
*Corporate sponsorship of post secondary education and control of admissions
Kenney is actively redesigning Alberta society.
He’s using Dominionist Christian ideology to shape policy and indoctrinate the Alberta population from Kindergarten on up.
Only the top of the hierarchy makes rules. Everyone else just obeys.
Dissent may mean prison, death or re-education. Or banishment from the regime.
China is a totalitarian dictatorship.
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.
Alberta better wake up soon. Or we will be living a dystopian nightmare within the next year.
Sounds like a conspiracy theory, but I assure you, the conspiracy is very real.
And here:
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
What three nations have imposed sanctions on Canada to weaken the economy? China, Saudi Arabia and US.
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.
We need to acknowledge that and form a resistance to make it more difficult for UCP to achieve. NOW
If we don’t, we will be rules with an iron fist of Kenney’s and his UCP minions.
