Well this didn’t take long. Another thing directly related to people voting in the UCP as our government. Congratulations UCP voters, you bags of vaginal lavage.
So in Calgary parents are getting sent notes to come to meetings at their schools to decide to fire the music teacher, eliminating music lessons, or fire a homeroom teacher and increase class sizes, or to fire some educational assistants. My guess is that not matter what is voted upon all three will happen by the end of this UCP term. Because no amount of cuts will ever be enough until they turn education into a disastrous state so they can institute a private sector to replace. it. The neoliberal agenda 101.
And yes, you the UCP voter are directly responsible for this. Under the NDP, despite financial constraints, they never took budget pressures out on our children. Nothing shows more personal responsibility than to have our children pay for your $4.5 billion tax cut, am I right conservatives?

It sounds like you have significant differences in some parties in Canada. In the US we have two branches of the “power elite” and the only difference is how brash or polite they are in taking from workers.

In Canada we have those two power elite parties that get elected 99% of the time. The Conservatives and the Liberals. We also have the NDP and Green party as significant forces that have played huge roles when we have minority governments. Their influence has helped slow the overton window from shifting right as quickly as it has in the USA. It’s still slowly moving in that direct though.

The best part are the people who are defending the cuts to education. Balancing the budget! Bringing the deficits under control! Belt Tightening! The fuck? Why are we lowering taxes on the rich if we are in such a fiscal crisis? This shite is mind boggling.

Because if we lower taxes on the rich the trickle down job fairy will bring back all the jobs. Don’t you know that’s how it works?
