One would expect a leader in her position to lead by example: so let’s take a look back at some of her initiatives over the past year or so.

1. @AdrianaLaGrange Delayed school budgets until 6 weeks into the school year (Oct 2019) creating fiscal uncertainty for school boards. Not great for students!

5. Underfunded education to levels below 2018 funding on per student basis.
This means less money for each child - not great!

7. Significant cuts to inter ministerial RCSD prgm (Regional Collaborative Service Delivery model)-where different agencies worked together to provide services (speech pathology. OT, physical therapy, etc) to children-Can’t find ANY media coverage of these cuts!

It would seem @adrianaLagrange herself has fallen short of her Ministerial demands to put students first.
Where is her audit?
Where is her accountability?
Alberta students deserve answers.
