AB does not exist in a bubble.
🛑When Jason Kenney lifted the cap on charter schools it wasn’t because #ABEd is unique.
🛑When the UCP adopted a 💯 % voucher policy at their 2019 AGM it wasn’t because they believe every family actually has choice..... 1/x
2/x It’s because privatization follows a playbook - and right wing governments around the world follow it.
Alberta charter and private schools are NOT unique -right down to the way they claim to benevolently help those in the margins to prove their value: #Abed#Ableg
3/x “In many ways, there's an emphasis on playing identity politics to subvert actual equity efforts, especially when it comes to privatization.”
Alberta is not only not immune, but the wheels of this movement have been in motion for decades. #ABed#Ableg @ABschoolcouncil
Now is the time for all Albertans to band together to let Premier Kenney and Minister LaGrange know that their proposed curriculum simply cannot stand.
2. Request a lawn sign!
Show your neighbours exactly how you feel about the curriculum, and rally their support. We are kindly accepting voluntary donations to help our lawn sign campaign. #abed#ableg
