Is your school safe to reopen? Don’t ask your lapdog Liberal MLA
“. . .
The human resources committee’s mandate — highlighted in yellow on its web page — includes dealing with “issues related to early childhood development, labour and education.”
You might imagine such a mandate would allow — even require — the committee to consider a motion put forward last week by NDP MLA Claudia Chender. She wanted the committee to write to Education Minister Zach Churchill asking him to identify which Nova Scotia school classrooms currently meet physical distancing guidelines, and to share the results of the department’s school ventilation testing.
Reasonable requests, you might suppose, as we prepare to reopen our schools in the midst of a pandemic.
You would suppose wrong.
