In response

Resident provides his thoughts on cuts at the school district

In reply to Mr. Roosevelt’s letter Dec. 2, I’m glad to hear he has changed his T-shirt. The federal election was over two months ago.

Also, perhaps he might have Ms. Gingras explain to him the difference between federal and provincial politics.

As you may not be aware, the fact is that education is a provincial matter.

Our dear Eric’s Ms. Clark and her minister of education are the ones responsible for demanding that school boards across the province cut $54 million from the 2015/16 school year budget.

I am quite sure it wasn’t the Vernon School District’s idea.
