The Conservative argument that the media should focus just as much attention on Nathaniel Erskine-Smith's comments about the budget raises an interesting question:

Could a CPC MP dissent from the CPC line as much as NES does from the Liberal party line and remain in the CPC caucus?

The provincial gov is allowing supervisors who replace school board Trustees to earn up to $350,000/year plus $20,000 in expenses. Our 10 Trustees, 3 Student Trustees, association fees, and expenses cost $185,291 in 2023-2024. I thought the gov wanted to save money?

I don’t know the background of this footage, but what I do know is there was a time not so long ago that footage like this would be national news.
