I'm dreading the results!! I'm not sure if you all hear about the turmoil here in Alberta over education, but Calgary teachers have voted to take a strike vote..which is very grim because of our education minister and our premier! They pretty much gave us an ultimatum...take the 2% wage increase or we pull your $1.9 billion retirement fund off the table! We declined their 2% Thank GOD!!! IT isn't even wages we are fighting for...its working conditions! Damn media!!! GRRRRRRRR!!!! {biting my tongue right now}

It is a sad sad day here, and at 3:00 I'm off to vote....I just hope it has sunk in to some people that we need changes in this country, or its all going to hell!
