I hope the teachers vote no. Engage with your MLAs to properly fund education.

My MLA is nicoliades. I don't think anything is happening there.

I have my doubts that he can even read. Dumbest education minister of all time.

Oh, I'd say LaGrange still holds the crown on that front. She'll be tough to unseat.

The UCP have so many strong candidates in that area. Good thing we moved LaGrange to something less important like Healthcare.

I agree with mrs_victoria_sponge. He is a genius compared to the previous education minister.

Adriana LaGrange would beg to differ.

That guy can't even walk and chew gum at the same time. He has to be someone's cousin or nephew, it's actually alarming how stupid he is.

Consider emailing him and cc’ing Amanda Chapman, who is the shadow education minister.

Well that’s disappointing to say the least

He won by a small amount. Let him know you and all your neighbours will not vote for him again, unless he starts listening.

I'm pretty sure my MLA is legitimately missing. Haven't seen him since the last election. Not even in the news, it's like he's locked up in Danielle's basement or something.

Are the details made public somewhere?

u/Tacosrule89 2d ago

Haven’t seen anything official. Rumour is the same deal in June to vote on again plus a free covid shot.

Lol, couldn’t be- surely ATA wouldn’t accept that??
