Minister of Education,

Progressive Conservative, Edmonton-Whitemud

Dear David:

I want II say at this juncture excellent work by Liberal MLA Harry Chase & Tory MLA (& Deputy Speaker) Wayne Cao. Their questions on your inconsistent funding levels IV the Calgary Public School Board have been thoughtful & erudite. Calgary Herald Beat Columnist Sean Myers should also be congratulated on his investigative efforts here. I know you are caught in a bind b/c you have II honour teacher wage increases. But to starve a school Board of 61.7 Million Cdn. $'s & then make them the bad guys when its your cuts is reprehensible.

Calgary Stresses,

Rory
