Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the honourable Mr. Miltenberger, the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. Mr. Speaker, I am quite astounded at the amount of money that this forum cost, $350,000. Like all consultations, we go out there and do these consultations, but we cannot seem to deliver any results because we do not have any money. The whole question becomes why are we doing consultations when we know ahead of time some of the problems?
My specific concern related to the report lies in the areas of our educators. At the moment, teachers' spirits are not that great. They are not receiving the benefits and the wages of a few years ago and it is harder for them to do the job because class sizes have increased and program delivery seems to be enlarging. It is very discouraging. My question for the Minister is, in his report he states that resources should be directed towards training teachers, program support teachers and special needs assistants, to better prepare them to meet the needs of all students. We do not have any money, Mr. Speaker. How are we going to meet that need of the teachers? Thank you.
