I’ve covered dozens of protests at the provinces’s southern office at the McDougall Centre, but today’s teacher rally was by far the largest by a measure. Truly massive turnout for teachers to express their anger at the government.

This is allegedly the letter Pete Guthrie wrote to Danielle Smith when he resigned as Minister in Feb.
In it, he alleges that Lagrange and likely Smith knew about the procurement problems & worse, that the AHS board was fired under false pretense.
