Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi says "things are bad", as he gives an update on the local response to COVID-19. Highlighting a need for personal responsibility and discipline. #yyc
Starts with a story about a friend who recently got a vaccine, but before it was fully effective they caught the virus. They have been in the ICU for six days.

He also has a friend in India who caught one of the variants, amid the horrendous outbreak over there.
But something to keep in mind: the infection rate in India is half of what is is Calgary. "It is absolutely critical for all of us to manage this with incredible vigour."

He now lambastes the "maskless idiots" who continue to hold protests. He knows it's "maddening."

The Alberta Teachers' Association is calling for a moratorium on the province's draft K-6 curriculum. ATA President Jason Schilling will be speaking more about this soon, and will have details in this thread. #yyc #yeg #ableg
Schilling starts us off. Just beginning with a summary of the press release above. He says there has been a lot of discussion on the curriculum lately, with an "overwhelming message that this curriculum is not fit for students."
He says it is poorly structured, full of random facts, and isn't appropriate for some age groups. Also there is a distinct lack of enough Indigenous education. He says it will cause kids to get frustrated with learning, and cause more issues down the road.

This is now underway. LaGrange starting with just the general details on the announcement included above.
She makes it clear that this is not a move directed by @CMOH_Alberta, but this reflects an intention to have a regional approach to schooling during the pandemic.
