The year I started going to concerts… and now, off to Toronto to repeat the OC (original concert) 40 years later!

The ATA’s announcement of teachers soundly rejecting a contract offer and heading for a strike coincided with the last-in person Alberta Next panel in Calgary. A high school student tried to ask the panel about it … and what happened next sent everyone chasing after a 17 year old IB student #AbLeg

Without some amazing teachers throughout the years I would have NEVER become a doctor. Without the amazing PUBLIC education system I wouldn't be where I am today (my family could NOT have afforded private eductation streams). I stand with our teachers and for our future students!
