Scared for strike talk at the dinner table? Don't worry, we have you covered with the facts on education. ⬇️

Line chart showing Alberta’s real dollars per student dropping under the UCP. Text highlights: Alberta is last in per-student funding, class sizes of 40+, and that the UCP could have acted months ago.

Students walking toward a school. Text says Alberta’s NDP built and modernized 244 schools in four years, while the UCP has only built or modernized 78 in five years.

Student standing in a library aisle. Text says Alberta’s NDP funded education per student above the national average and that past NDP funding remains higher than the UCP’s, even with inflation.

Classroom scene with raised hands. Text says Alberta's NDP introduced a 2023 bill to bring back class size reporting, and the UCP defeated it.
