It just so happens that...

"As a former school board trustee, parent advocate and Parliamentary Assistant in education, access to public education has been one of the abiding themes of my political career....

We have, as a government made significant changes to the provincial funding formula. The funding formula is really an allocation formula through which the available education money flows to school boards.

We know there is more to do on the funding formula. The Premier has said that it is a work in progress. We have to be careful that we do not oversimplify the issues confronting us, and that whenever we talk about education funding, we are absolutely clear what we are talking about."
