Dear Editor:

With the latest revelations about the corruptness of the Liberal regime and the Vancouver School Boards refusal to present a balanced budget, it is high time to revisit the funding of private schools by public tax dollars. If parents wish their children to go to a private school, thats fine. But by doing so, they give up their right to any funding from the public.

There is not enough money to properly fund the public school system. How can this Liberal government possibly justify funding private schools? Is it just a coincidence that the Premiers child attends a private school? On the salary she makes (plus the top-ups from the Liberal party), her child should be receiving zero dollars from the general public.

Stop this nonsense, which has been going on for more than 30 years ever since Pat McGeer started it in the 1980s.
