@FairTaxCanada for your work.

Public dollars belong to public schools. FULL STOP.
Take action now to tell the Premier & the Education Minister that Albertans do not support public subsidization of private education. We certainly do not support building private schools with public $

Today, we're launching a campaign with @SOSAlberta for an idea so simple, it boggles the mind that we even have to organize for it --- that PUBLIC funds belong in PUBLIC schools.
Not charter schools.
Not private schools.
