It's about quality, not disobedience

 

RE: Don't accept civil disobedience

I'm just wondering if you are going to accept sub-par schooling, or health care stretched to unsafe limits for the patients (that's you ), because that is what is happening.

Teachers are forced to limit resources. Nurses are being forced to care for patients on stretchers that line hallways.

It's not civil disobedience, it's public employees looking out for what they do. The province's Nurses aren't asking for a pay increase just improved work conditions.

I'm sure you'd like to see your mother lying in an ER Hallway for days.

Yes, the Teachers are asking for a pay increase but that said it works out to basically a cost of living increase our the next few years .

Teachers are having to take on extra special needs children because of C.E.A. cuts . How can a teacher possibly have time for 3 or 4 special needs students on top of another 20 to 30 children ?

I want the best teachers for my kids and I want better health care . If it means more taxes so be it. Money well spent I say .

Our current government has money for BC Place Stadium, money for the Olympics, money for their own salaries, but no money for its public employees.
