Edmonton has recently surpassed a population of just over 1 million residents. The growth in population represents many different ethnic groups and cultures whose presence make themselves known in many ways. One of the ways most people don't think about is the Edmonton Public School school calendar. Until recently holidays were reflective of Edmonton's Judeo/Christian background but now that has changed significantly and EPS is having to adjust the school year calendar to reflect those changes.  National Indigenous People's Day on June 21 and Diwali on Oct 24 will be  two new holidays added to Edmonton Public Schools holiday schedule next year and more are being lobbied for and considered.

When Premier Kenney announced the gradual removal of restrictions beginning Tuesday midnight one might think that everyone would celebrate the news. Not only was it not a cause for mass celebration it caused mixed reactions from three different sectors of our city as well as the general populace.

Below are reports on the reactions of three different and important sectors of Edmonton. The first is City Council's reaction, that is followed by comments from some in the business community and lastly is a report from Edmonton Public Schools.

      Wanting schools to be safe and healthy environments for students and staff is no doubt what led to the decision to purchase Hepa air filters.

      After reading the article I'm left with some questions that I believe are important:

      1. Does the 6 million dollar price tag only cover the cost of the Hepa filter units or does it include installation as well?
      2. What will be estimated annual cost for replacing the filters? 
      3. Who will replace the filters? Custodians or union workers?
