text: Teachers prepare the young for the future.  A decent teacher is worth his/her weight in gold.  Granted some are not so good just like everywhere else, all people don't shine, but even to choose teaching as a profession tells you something about a person.  Good Luck B.C. Teachers.  Sincerely hope you get the respect you deserve.  Maybe a new government will bring a new atmosphere to B.C. which is sorely needed.
