Newstip shared with Global News just now. HOPE they air it: SUBJECT: AFFORDABLE ARBITRATION with Mike de Jong and the Province Newspaper Hi, A simple, visual arithmetic news item to prove that ARBITRATION is AFFORDABLE. Data: Mike de Jong = need to raise $200/property owner Teachers = lost $6000 average lost of wages Source: The Province newspaper theprovince/touch/story.html?id=10192669&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Hence: 41000 (BC public school teachers) x $6000 (and counting) = 246,000,000 (tax dollars saved by BC Government in teacher wages, unless money given away at $40/day to intentionally prolong the strike) $246,000,000 / $200 (divided by Mike de Jongs suggested tax increase) = 1, 230, 000 One million two hundred thirty thousand property owners taxes covered (much larger a number than property owners out there) Therefore, when we DO THE MATH. Arbitration is AFFORDABLE, EXPEDIENT, AND FAIR. Please run a story on this to help send our children and caring teachers back to school.
