Opposition Urges Provincial Governmet to Save School Support Jobs

The New Brunswick Teacher's Association and Provincial opposition are optimistic some of the school support jobs that were cut earlier this year can be saved. Both the Union president and opposition leader are urging Education Minister Roland Hache to use the province's Innovative Learning Fund to save some positions. Haché recently froze the 3.4 million dollar program, initially budgeted at 5 million dollars. Opposition Leader David Alward says the frozen funds should be used to relieve some of the damage.
