“To counter the government façade of protecting education it is important that people understand the necessity to embark in a positive dialogue and awareness of what is actually happening in our public education system. Tulani’s courageous journey across British Columbia will create a stepping stone for that to happen. We’ve had enough of the funding ‘shell games’ that create chaos. We’ve seen class sizes and composition issues arise that do not meet the needs of children. We need to reach out and build an education system that focuses on our kids. I thank and honour Tulani and I will be there at the beginning of Tulani’s trek and at the end on August 12.”
