Why are you running?
I am most concerned about the erosion of public education. Public education was one of the pillars that Canada was founded on. Public education is the foundation of a civil society. Public education is what attracts immigrants. Public education is an economic generator.
Top three issues you want to work on:
- Changing Burnaby schools from “a Good Place to Learn” to Burnaby Schools “a GREAT Place to learn”
- Attraction and retention of Burnaby students in |Burnaby public schools
- Accountability, accessibility and openness to all stakeholders
