Welcome to my Blog
I have thought about how I can, in the limited time we have before the election on October 4th, 2006, interact and get to know each other. I feel that this is a great medium to voice you questions, clarify my platform or just generally get to know each other. This is an interactive forum whereby you can login anonymously, with your real name or with an alias of your choice. My only concern is that I respond accordingly and to a level that will satisfy your requests.
So my this is my first posting and look forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards,

Robyn is a teacher with the school division. I know that Tom Hoffman's wife, Wendy, was a teacher too. I can see where your interests could be conflicted on issues occasionally. Any comments Aaron?

Aaron,
Teachers in northern Alberta receive a very healthy wage in comparison to other professionals in the province. In addition to this, the northern living allowance is a great tax benefit. How do you plan to change the transient nature of teachers in High Level? I have lived here for over 15 years and my children have seen many teachers come and go. Is this something that can be easily changed or is it an unrealistic platform item?

Hi Aron,
I have three children in two different schools in High Level. I think healthy lunch programs are a great idea. Packing nutritious lunches for my children is often challenging as I am a single working mom, however it is still a priority for me. I would love to have the peace of mind that healthy choices were available to my kids instead of vending machines and deep fried foods from the canteen. Working in the health sector, I see many cases of childhood obesity in our region and although there are many explanations for this, unhealthy and non-existent lunch programs are certainly contributing to this epidemic.
