    I'm on vacation for a few days, but what would make my vacation much more awesome is if people signed/shared the IMN petition here. Please help if you haven't already done so:

  2. Happy Birthday to as well, since he happens to be the IMN MPP. (And Jamie...you probably should get some more Photoshop practice in.)

  6. Since apparently we don't understand the phrase "medically necessary therapies" in Canada yet, this woman is renting her basement to cover therapies that her child deserves. Hopefully someone can fill the void the government won't.

    That's why the idea that teachers aren't striking for a compensation increase is misleading. They are, and I don't have an issue with that. I have an issue with being misled, though, and others should as well. /8 /END

    That's just for the first three years alone. The 1% would carry over into subsequent years as well, because teacher salaries tend to be locked in. The question is: would you sacrifice $1,250 for one year to gain $28,779.09 over 20? I would, and I'd make no apologies for it. /7

    Year 2: $50,500 ($50,000 + $500 year one increase) x 1% = $505 x 19 years = $9595. Year 3: $51505 ($50,000 + $500 year one increase + $505 year two increase) x 1% = $510.05 x 18 years = $9180.09. Total lifetime increase based on 3 years of 1% increase: $28,779.09.

    That alone would make a pretty good reason to strike. But what about Years 2-3? The 1% would be compounded added to the total compensation based on the previous years, which means the example looks like this: /4

    Now, let's consider what the teacher stands to gain. It's not a simple 1%, as implied. We're going to use a 3-year contract since that's most likely the minimum for this example. Year 1: $50,000 x 1% = $500 x 20 years = $10,000 over that period. /3

    Since it's going to make a lot more sense using an example rather than a formula, let's use an example: a teacher making $50,000 per year that intends to teach for 20 years. How much does a teacher lose at 2.5%? $50,000 x 2.5% = $1,250. Easy so far, right? /2

    I keep seeing this meme floating around, with the implication being that teachers aren't willing to strike for additional compensation. However, this isn't necessarily the case, and the apples-to-orange comparison made here is misleading. Math to follow. /1

    Strange question: if teachers are on strike and schools are cancelled due to inclement weather, do parents still receive compensation?

    If anyone wants to know why therapies should be medically necessary in Canada...this is why. This family deserves a whole lot better than this.

    I see is trending on Twitter. Something to think about: The previous Minister of Education was a goat farmer. Lecce was alleged to have been involved in a hazing ritual involving goats. Maybe the next MoE should have no previous affiliation or association with goats.

    Twitter could use a bit of help with its targeted marketing. I could get about 1.5 years of targeted for the boy for the MSRP of a base model Escalade. On the other hand, maybe Cadillac is going to give me an Escalade and I can sell it for therapy for the boy.
