  • Feb. 18, 2021—To the Honourable Cliff Cullen, Minister of Education
    February 18, 2021 The Honourable Cliff Cullen Minister of Education Legislative Building 450 Broadway Winnipeg, MB R3C 0V8 Dear Minister Cullen: River East Transcona School division is the second largest school division in the province. We offer quality education programming to our students while having the lowest cost per pupil in the urban area. Our administration cost cap is currently 2.4%, .3% lower than the government directive of 2.7%. RETSD can do this because of the effective and efficient budgeting process it follows. The division has consistently developed lean budgets that maximize revenue supports to provide for students. Our Board is proud of this accomplishment. As have all school divisions in the province, we recently received your funding announcement. The announcement outlines financial support from the province as well as restrictions and limitations placed on our local school board. The impact of those restrictions and limitations is magnified in our division due to the existence of a fiscally responsible and lean budget. Specifically, RETSD Board of Trustees may not raise local education property tax above the level assessed last year. The province is providing school divisions with a 2% Property Tax Offset Grant (PTOG) to make up the shortfall in revenue. Unfortunately, the 2% PTOG does not adequately address the actual costs the division is facing just to maintain a status quo budgetary position. The provisions of Bill 28 dictate that our employees will receive a 1% salary increase this year. Many of our teachers will also be receiving an additional annual salary increment. Our division is experiencing unprecedented expansion and student population growth.

    Canadian eview V olume 42, No. 4 Right to BaRe Arms Dress Guidelines in British Columbia’s Legislative Assembly p. 6 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SUMMER 2019 There are many examples of family members sitting in parliaments at the same time. However, the first father-daughter team to sit together in a legislative assembly did not happen in Canada until 1996. That is when Sue Edelman was elected to the 29th Yukon Legislative Assembly, joining her re-elected father, Ivan John “Jack” Cable. Mr. Cable moved to the North in 1970 after obtaining degrees in Chemical Engineering, a Master’s in Business Administration and a Bachelor of Laws in Ontario. He practiced law in Whitehorse for 21 years, and went on to serve as President of the Yukon Chamber of Commerce, President of the Yukon Energy Corporation and Director of the Northern Canada Power Commission. He is also a founding member of the Recycle Organics Together Society and the Boreal Alternate Energy Centre. Mr. Cable’s entry into electoral politics came in 1992, when he successfully won the riding of Riverdale in East Whitehorse to take his seat in the Yukon Legislative Assembly. Ms. Edelman’s political presence had already been established by the time her father began his term as an MLA. In 1988, she became a Whitehorse city councillor, a position she held until 1994. In her 1991 reelection, she received more votes for her council seat than mayor Bill Weigand received. Following her time on city council, she was elected to the Selkirk Elementary School council. In the 1996 territorial election, she ran and won in the Riverdale South riding.

GIFT CERTIFICATES AVAILABLE! For More Information Contact Liz at 204.334.2081 When Thanksgiving Day rolls around, it is often the custom for people to express what they are thankful for. Families around the dinner table will often go around offering everyone an opportunity to say what they are thankful for. It is interesting that inevitably someone will say that they aren’t sure what to say… they are not sure for what they are or should be, thankful. Well, here’s a few suggestions. Feel free to use any or all of them… For my life! Even with the difficult moments and dark times, I am thankful for the whole package! To be alive! To have lived! To have seen this world and had many amazing experiences with people around me… family, friends or just random people that God had me meet. Speaking of God…. Thanks to God for having chosen me among an infinite number of other possibilities to be born into life! This one obvious sign that He really does love me! He created me for all eternity and wants me to be me and to be here! And to be with Him forever!... like, yeah, forever! Thanks God! I thank God for the people in my life! My mother and father that, regardless of the circumstances, brought me into the world! I am thankful that God chose them to give me life! I am thankful that they, to the best of their ability (even while dealing with their own challenges and hangups and anxieties) raise(d) me and gave me opportunities and a great start to life and now I am thankful that I have the opportunity to build upon that and do as much or as little as I want to build my own life.
