Many of you have asked what you can do to help spread the word about the proposal. We have encouraged you to call your city councillor, your MLA, your school board trustee to let them know about this. We want to thank you to those that have been able to make those contacts.
Interestingly enough we have received some positive feedback from government officials who want to support the proposal. This is great! Some however aren't as enthusiastic about being contacted. They say that since they aren't the ones making the decisions, people should not be calling them.
We are well aware that the school board is the decision maker when it comes to implementing programs. The superintendent doesn't make that decision, nor city councillors or even the province.
Our goal isn't just to inform those that make the decisions, but to let all levels of government and citizens know. Spreading the word so that people are talking about it at social events and meetings.
The more that know = the greater chance of this succeeding.
