So so so, I said I would discuss my Legislative trip. Briefly, because most of you won’t understand.
So, basically, the premier (leader) of my province, Shawn Ghram, is a dick. The huge debate in the province is that Shawn wants to change a bunch of our national, and most popular provincial Universities into Polytechnique institutions, a type of trade school that is in Europe, and apparently sucks. In doing this, they will eliminate Liberal Arts, a HUGE draw here.
Why do this and piss everyone off?
Because Shawn and his Liberal party are best buddies with the corporation that basically ruins this province, the Irving’s. It’s a HUGE oil family, and they need so many new employees now, but everyone training to be in oil or electrical, or whatever they need is going out west for more money and better jobs. So, in my opinion, Shawn is forcing post secondary students to take trades, and stay in the province and work for the Irving’s. Its stupid, and it caused A LOT of controversy in the house. It was an exciting debate with the opposition yelling at Shawn, accusing him of stealing from us, and not caring.
My teacher says they were excited to have us, and performed for us, as we’re the next people going to Uni, in a few short months.
I was on the news too. Cameras filmed as taking a tour, watching the media scrums, and they interviewed a bunch of us, one girl in my Pol. Sci class was on the news. It was a cool experience.
Anywho, TGIF. Thank god.
Might go to a party tonight... hmmm....
Later
