So about that Crime Stoppers misdirection presser today with UCP Minister Shandro and EPS Chief McFee. #ableg#yegcc 🧵
Let's clarify a few things about police funding and public safety in Edmonton:
Edmonton property taxes provide for the best resourced police force in Alberta and 2nd in Canada.
No one spends more on police per person than Edmonton and it's almost a quarter of your tax bill.
🧵 If Kenney can put forward a Referendum on equalization at #ableg, #epsb can request referendum on:
1) education equalization (the weighted moving average) & 2) the draft K-6 curriculum.
Edmonton City Council can add the questions to #yegvote. I'll propose this tomorrow.
We’re not asking for a special deal, just a fair deal. Jason Kenney's equalization program is not fair for Children.
Despite their promise to maintain or increase funding for education, they have instead introduced a new formula that punishes growing Edmonton Schools.

As an #EPSB Trustee and a #yegvote#yegcc candidate, I can't convey how incredibly frustrating this stupid, pointless, powerless referendum on equalization question is: a pointless distraction from Kenney's failures on jobs, economy, pipelines.
#EPSB and #CBE students receive fewer dollars per capita than any other school board in Alberta because of the failed #WMA brought in by the UCP.
Where's the fair deal for Calgary and Edmonton children?
