Can we also add context that this list was leaked to school boards & Edmonton decided to maliciously comply to prove a point. Now, ppl are pissed off about it & the prov govt is backtracking. Edmonton is consistently at odds w our prov govt b/c we vote for the NDP & not UCP drivel.
The prov govt has literally changed municipal funding b/c Edmonton refused to quietly comply. They've refused to give Edmonton what they are supposed to, & are now getting involved in municipal affairs. The prov govt has also forced municipalities to allow parties in local elections.
They've done everything possible to make it more and more difficult for Edmonton to do anything & then our city Council take the blame.
