Class Size Uber Alles!

AllYourPremiers
'RUsVille


Well, well, well...

Who'd a thunk it:

Premier Doug Ford is warning teachers’ unions against taking any action to protest his government’s move to increase class sizes to save money.

“If the head of the unions want to hurt the children of this province by doing walkouts and everything else, I’d think twice if I were them,” Ford said Friday in Ottawa where he was touting the province’s $1.2 billion investment in a local light rail transit project...

Question now is....How long before Mr. Solomon and the fine folks running CTV have the good Ms. Clark on to wax Supreme about something she is actually more than just conflicty about.

Because, well....

You know:

I've been trying to stay away from all the wacky stories that make up a usual day in BC politics. However it's difficult not to read what's really excellent journalism, you know the kind the MSM stays away from. It's found in the best bloggers that BC offers.
Today RossK you shocked the hell out of me by informing us the MSM has been relying on the likes of Christy Clark to comment on its news stories. Are these people nuts or do they actually believe her opinion really matters. Maybe its done to show the Liberal Feds that it involves Provincial Liberals in its so-called news package ..... therefor it qualifies for one of those taxpayer funded handouts to prop up the dying right wing media.

As to your link to your November 11th,2016 .... post which in turn has a link to Castanet net news .... "the good Ms. Clark on to wax Supreme" there is the one million dollar question that the BC Liberals had set aside
to deal with the chronic under funding of school in BC.

ONE MILLION? Only?

"Speaking in West Kelowna, Clark said the government is already working towards new funding to train and educate teachers on new curriculum, which is coming to B.C. classrooms after a $1-million plan was announced last year."

Discussion in the makeup room if CTV has Christy on to help out on matters educational:

Artist #1 - “Looking in my copy of ‘Makeup For Dummies’ and can’t find anything on masking Supreme Court scars and singes.”

Artist #2 - “Don’t worry about those. The hosts cover them up.”

What no corruption interview?

Mr. Beer N. Hockey said...

CC has about as much integrity to be interviewed about ANYTHING as the NZ mosque massacre dude.

e.a.f. said...

perhaps she needs the money????

speaking of the MSM and the B.C. Lieberals, it was amusing when global had Sam Cooper waxing on about the money laundering in B.C. and going into a little history about the "government" in 2014 increasing the betting limits to $100K on baccarat even when they were advised not to because it might lead to money laundering. They then had mike dejong speak but saying nothing. What I find so interesting is when good old Cooper was speaking at no time did he or the other Global talking head mention "B.C. LIEBERAL". they keep referring to "the government". If they keep this up long enough in another year people will start believing "the government' will refer to the NDP, and not the B.C. Lieberals. Its quite amusing. global had no problem mention NDP, NDP, NDP Premier G.C. when their did their 20th anniversary piece on the raid on his home, but whenever Sam Cooper and global go on about money laundering the words "B.C. Lieberal" and Christy Clark or Gordon Campbell are just not mentioned. Even when they introduced Mike deJong, they didn't mention his party. goodness gracious. what can that be all about.

CC got her directorship at Shaw but perhaps she didn't make enough money while in office to tide her through and she's doing these interviews to work her way back into radio or some such thing, I do mean the poor girl has to make a living. wonder how Pammy is doing these days, poor thing...........

Nothing about Ford's actions regarding education, health, autistic kids surprises me. Gordon Campbell was hired as one of his advisors when Ford was elected and Ford seems to be doing much the same as Campbell and Clark did. Come to think of it, didn't read anything about Campbell loosing the job in Ontario, when he lost the other two positions, after the news about his 'activities" while in London. Always wanted to see that man come back in hand cuffs and then I was told the only chance of that will be to go to London, England first.

Premier Christy Clark's Limp mic joke

https://lailayuile.com/2013/03/10/and-where-is-ms-isingers-indignation-now/


The Comox Valley Business Gazette:

A seasoned orator, as well as a veteran of a talk radio business where controversy and titillation are king, Clark delivered what was surely the highlight of the presentation only a few minutes in. While struggling against a microphone that wouldn’t stay upright, she commented, “I’m not going to say it reminds me of my ex-husband.” The comment was met with laughs by all and the most raucous ovation of the afternoon.
