Where they stand

Every candidate in this race is shown against the same 2 issues, in the same order, whether or not we’ve found something for each one. Why we do it this way.

What a trustee actually does

Does the candidate understand the trustee job?

Says trustees decide how schools are run, how provincial money is allocated, and local hiring — not the curriculum.

  • Trustees decide how schools are run.
  • Trustees decide how provincial money is broken down to areas of need within schools.
  • Trustees decide who gets hired into top positions locally, and how concerns get addressed.
  • The province decides what will be taught through its curriculum, not the board.

“But how the schools are run, how the money from the province is broken down to different areas of need within the schools, who gets hired into top positions locally, and finally, how your concerns about these things get addressed—THAT'S what the trustees are elected to do.”

Student wellbeing and learning

Will kids be safe, supported and learning well?

Vows to make schools stable and safe for all children, and says political proxy wars threaten their safety and stability.

  • Safety, security, and stability are critical for kids to feel safe, welcome, and able to learn.
  • Says using schools as a place for proxy wars against government threatens those conditions.
  • Vows one goal if elected: a stable and safe environment for all children to learn, study, and grow together.
