Are you planning an all-party candidate forum? We would like to attend.

Typically non-partisan organization organize these events. We’ve begun hearing rumblings of these events, and we’ll certainly keep you posted when details are more firm.
The first All-Candidates forum will be Tuesday, April 10 at Knox United Church at 7 pm. I’ll keep you posted on others.

I have worked in Public School and higher education systems in Quebec and Alberta, and as a Liberal Member myself, I cannot agree with your assertion that “Private Schools”, partially funded by Provincial Governments, are a drain or misuse of Public Funds.
Yes, many citizens do want their kids to learn different languages, or programs not readily available in the Public School stream, and have to pay MORE, but each child deserves a BASIC FUNDING that can be used in any Institution of Elementary and High School Education.
As for selective enrollment, by meeting minimum criteria, that always existed and always will, as people are willing to direct their personal funds to better schooling, better Universities, better homes, cars, etc. As Canadians are more Capitalists than they are Socialists.
Good luck with the Elections.
