text: So, rather than tackle the issue, just cover it up and make it look shiny. The BS this premier puts out is terrible. The curriculum based on common core technique and the text books that my son uses are horrible - the whole process of learning is wrong. The text books (Nelson for our son) have PAGES of staff that reviewed it, but there are errors galore, poor and simplistic examples that don't show the details of techniques clearly, the test problems are not progressive, but leaps ahead of the material as it's presented - the text cannot be used as a teaching tool or a reference. This is the fault of the province, the school boards, and the publishers - put the blame where it belongs. There was nothing wrong with learning the basics first, then expanding upon the foundations.  The Liberals need to go in the next election - they are busier buying votes with tax payers money with lies and deceit. Whoever gets in next owes the kids a lot and needs to make up for lost time.
