  • Teacher Union Enters Partisan Politics

    From National Post


    Call it what you will. For the 33% of union delegates that voted against the measure, it’s a compulsory political donation to a cause that they might not personally support. Further, it cannot be assumed that those teachers who choose to serve as conference delegates are reflective of the rank-and-file teachers they represent. This might be defensible if teachers’ membership in the union was voluntary. It isn’t. Those who wish to pursue the high calling of educating the province’s youth are in effect being forced to subsidize a political campaign if they wish to remain in their profession.


    Funny Mr. Ryan has no problem almost copying verbatim the Ontario Liberal party line. Even going as far to use similar rhetoric as prominent Ontario Cabinet ministers. This election the Conservative grassroots more than ever have to dispel the myths and misperceptions spread by  Liberal friendly third parties.

  • Hudak is Not Campaigning Against Teachers

    Let’s set the record straight before the partisan shots start flying this fall.

    From  Toronto Star

    Hudak says he comes from a family of teachers and had support for classroom education ingrained in him at the dinner table growing up.

    He says some teachers have been emailing and calling the opposition party to say they don’t support their union’s decision to campaign against him.

    Hudak wants teachers to judge him on the PC campaign platform, which has yet to be released, and predicts they’ll be impressed.

  • The True North Strong and Free

    Here is the new conservative party ad. I like how it is  Unapologetically patriotic in its tone.
