RE:RE:RE:Ontari-DOH ! Thanks Griz I agree with all your points it's time to pay these integral workers what they're worth. I'd love to see some of the real whiners try and manage three special needs kids in a grade one classroom. My guess is they'd quit before the day is over

B) Can you honestly say the gov't offer is anything other than an insult and a one way ticket to poverty?
C) Do you think ending collective bargaining (that's what using the nothwithstanding clause is) is a good idea?
D) You don't know siht about what teachers are facing today.
E) Why aren't you a teacher then if they have it so good?
F) How about trying to improve livelihood for people in the private sector instead of tearing down those who have fought for a decent (not lush) life?
G) Undermining the education of the next generation is the mark of someone who is "not the sharpest knife in the drawer."

She's not the sharpest knife in the drawer and yet she has at least 2 months off per year , amazing benefits and will be able to retire with full pension at 55. They should try working in the private sector and maybe just maybe theyd shut their mouthes. See Thomas Sowell on the worst case scenario for money. When you are given money thats not yours with no repercussions spending it. Thats the public sector in a nutshell.
